be quiet! Silent Loop 2 240mm AIO Cooler Review

Rating: 8.0.

The Silent Loop 2 is be quiet!’s first deployment of ARGB in their AIO liquid cooler line-up. In typical be quiet! fashion, though, the lighting is kept subtle and somewhat discreet rather than flashy and in-your-face. We take a look at how the new 240mm unit performs.

Fundamentally, be quiet! suggests that the Silent Loop 2 is designed for solid performance with quiet operation. While this is obviously ideal for most coolers, some aim for lower noise and some for higher performance. But be quiet! looks to be emphasising a balance between noise and performance.

One unique feature is the inclusion of a refill port to extend the lifespan of your cooler, and be quiet! encourages topping up the fluid after two years of operation.

Available in 120 / 240 / 280 /360mm iterations, we are testing the 240mm version. The be quiet! Silent Loop 2 240mm version is priced around £120 in the UK with availability from early April and with a 3-year warranty.
