be quiet! has historically shown restraint when it comes to gaudy illumination, and the subtle implementation on offer here is right up our street.
A welcome change, as is the addition of aRGB lighting to the CPU block. The most obvious upgrade is that while previous be quiet! liquid coolers were bundled with entry-level Pure Wings 2 fans, Silent Loop 2 comes equipped with top-of-the-range Silent Wings 3 as standard.
be quiet!'s configuration - a 314mm x 140mm x 27mm aluminium radiator coupled to a pump via 400mm of sleeved tubing - doesn't look all that different to the norm, yet there are enough subtle tweaks to suggest that the German firm has paid attention to the details.
Five years after the launch of its first Silent Loop liquid cooler, be quiet! is following-up with a sequel aptly dubbed the Silent Loop 2.Īvailable in 120mm (£94), 240mm (£120), 280mm (£130) and 360mm (£135) flavours, the new range is described as "the high-performance and whisper-quiet all-in-one water cooling unit for sophisticated users with overclocked systems." Sophisticated as we are, it's our turn to take the Silent Loop 280mm for a spin.Īll-in-one closed-loop setups from a variety of ODMs share so much in common that it is becoming increasingly difficult for one retail model to stand out from the next.
