Arguably one of the best and most honest reviews I've seen. Be Quiet are truly some of the best out there. I can only wonder how powerful would a Pure/Silent Loop 420 would be. I don't think anything on the market would stand a chance, save for custom loops.
Design Wise I love BeQuiet. Their Fans always look so premium and performance is also quite strong. I've been using the silent wings 4 pro 140mm on a 280 AIO and mega happy.
I bought this model, I had a Lumem 280mm but it made a lot of noise, I had to reduce the pump RPM to silence it. But with the Loop I had no problems, very quiet even at high revs. Incredible.
You think this would cool a 7950x3d in a SFF like the Asus AP201 case? The Arctic 280mm I have has clearance issues (hits the VRM heatsink) coz of the 38mm thickness of the radiator, unlike this 27mm unit. I need at least 8mm to clear the heatsink, so this will give me another 3mm clearance but I've never used be quiet AIO's. Not familiar with their products to be honest. Looking forward to your reply! ✌️
Even with mistakes you are the best reviewer for AIOs and cooling things in general! I think Gamer's Nexus is better for Case review, but fans, AIO, air cooler - you are the best! I would love to see results for Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 with the new benchmark and header, even now it's one of the best AIOs to recommend for most. Lian Li GALAHAD has to many issues with the pump (Performance model was recalled and regular has regular issues with the pump as well).
Hey man, im looking at "noise to performance" graphs and im a little bit confused about it. Shouldn't CPU temp on top be going from left to right and not right to left? Because what I see is that at lets say 250W graph I see 49db at 56C with galahad
Bought mine about two weeks ago, and I am satisfied with the results, I also installed the 1700 Thermalright frame, everything went smooth and temps couldn't be better. Now, it' a 12,600KF, and it was fine with a Dark Rock Pro 4 but the fans kept spiking and it was annoying, temps were slightly high and low, low and high, so now all of that is gone. . Also, my motherboard has super tall VRM heatsinks, so the plate of the heatsink was not thoroughly making contact with the CPU's ihs, it covered 90% only, because the VRM heatsinks were in teh way. Now my CPU @ 4.9GHz (alightly overclocked more than Intel's recommend), stays at 69c highest.....it's a great AIO, which I like thee fact that I can refill the unit, whereas my previous unit died after 4 years, because probably the pump ran died.
Thank you for always being honest and straight to the point and throwing in some sarcasm and humor. Always enjoy your content!
Glad you like it!
Looks odd that the arctic LF's are worse.Waiting for the update on them also. Thank you.@@STSYT

Bequiet 280 going to beat arctic 280 or 360 and 420 especially on intel. intel arctic 360 is extremely mediocre when you go over 250 watts.
Great review along with good information 👍👍
Glad you liked it!
excellent review amigo! greetings to mexico
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

the temps are going down as fan speed is increasing.
Please test LF 420 vs Trinity 360 again. Going to buy soon and need to avoid noise. Thx Buddy
I was wondering if on a Pure Loop 2 360 would be beneficial to swap 3 Silent Wings Pro 4 120 🤔
Some Voodoo Magic with SW 4 Pro on LF 420 and Trinity would be great too 😅
Can we replace the cpu without unmounting the cpu cooler bracket as it is with the silent loop 2?
Good afternoon, will this heatsink work for a core I9 13900 kf?
How is it working with the Silent Wings Pro 4s ?
and with the FXones ?
Makes it much more expensive, but you would find the reason, why it is better.
I’m curious to see the updated graphs once you’ve tested the LF2 again, because there is objectively no possible way that a 280mm beats it😭
Yes there are 280mm aio beating 360 aio for quiet sometime and 420 too.
@@ajinkyathorat7502 it is not possible, brother
@@1sredna
Yes, it is especially on intel.
@@ajinkyathorat7502 So you're saying an LF2 280mm is better than a LF2 420mm?
@@1sredna
I never said lf2 280 did you even watch the video. 280 aio with fast pump speed going to beat aio with not that fast pump speed 420mm aio.
