be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX 360mm AIO Review

Cooling/CPU Cooling by stefan @ 2023-10-12

The Pure Loop 2 FX 360 from be quiet is an improvement in terms of performance versus the Silent Loop 2 360mm we have tested a while ago, mainly due to the increased performance of the included fans, the Light Wings 120mm which now have a maximum rotational speed of 2500RPM instead of 2100. Even if the pump does have a high RPM, it remains very silent during operation thanks to the double decoupled design, while the ARGB effect complexity is managed by the system motherboard.

Starting with the supplied hardware bundle, we do have 3 Light Wings 120mm fans, a hub, a coolant refill bottle but also mounting mechanisms for different sockets in a separate cardboard box:

 

 

 

The supplied Light Wings 120mm PWM fans are optimized for high pressure (2.6mm / H2O), ideal for radiators. The 9 fan blades do have a custom shape with a wave pattern, the middle area includes a manufacturer logo, while on the outer zone we do have the ARGB ring. Silicone pads are present in each corner for vibration dampening purposes:

 

 

 

The fan motor does come with a power rating of 12V at 0.45A and the maximum rotation speed is 2500:

 

 

 

The cables of the fans are flat and ribbon styled in order to help with management; the LED cable is accompanied by the PWM one:

 

 

 

The ARGB connector will be installed right to the supplied hub:
