The Be Quiet Silent Loop AIO radiators are all full blown copper ones, no coated aluminum heat dissipation here, top notch material or bust. Be Quiet can warrant maximum heat transfer this way. The Silent Loop 120 radiator is 45mm thick, while both the 240 and 280 radiators are just 30mm thick. Thicker versions would negatively affect the enclosure compatibility, so a wise move by Be Quiet. Watercooling purists will recognize the Alphacool nexXxos radiator for sure. Since this radiator is made out of copper , the weight of the radiator by itself is already over 1.3KG.


We already mentioned this loop is ugradeable? Sure we did and thus we find them typical Alphacool fittings on the pump and radiator. One can change tubing, fluids, maybe even add an extra waterblock, though consider the performance of your little pump before adding extra loops...

Be Quiet includes two 120 or 140 beefed up PWM versions of their renown Pure Wings 2. We are mentioning beefed up as the 120mm PWM versions included with our Silent Loop 240 have a maximum rotational speed of 2000RPM; a Standard Be Quiet version is limited at a mere 1500RPM. This means in our case more airflow and a higher static pressure, but also resulting in more noise. The original Pure Wings are rated for less than 20dBA. these are rated up to +/- 37dBA. Both fans are hooked up to the motherboard via a splitter, thus fan adjustment has to be achieved via the motherboard BIOS or software. Maybe not a bad idea as many people are getting tired of buggy software to control the fans; maybe a minor point of criticism where Be Quiet could miss out. All hardware is getting the RGB treatment, in fact the last Computex was more about add RGB to existing hardware than to develop new material. Seems more is better, not my personal taste as I rather prefer a clean, elegant and sleek design.
