How Much Does it Cost?

Although the be quiet! Pure Loop 240mm AIO hasn’t quite hit retailers yet (at least, not at the time of writing) we have been informed that this cooler will retail for a price in the region of £92.99.

In comparative terms, while certainly more expensive than entry-level designs, with the quality and performance on offer here, you might be surprised to find that this still remains surprisingly less expensive (by around £20-£30 in some cases) than much of it’s performance relative competition.

Overview

Right at the beginning of this review, we suggested that although not releasing with a particularly large amount of fanfare, be quiet! was seemingly somewhat pleased with what they had achieved here with the Pure Loop design. Now that we’ve had a look at the cooler components and test results, although I always suspected that the Pure Loop 240mm was always going to be very good, even I’ll admit that this was massively better than even my wildest expectations.

The build quality is absolutely flawless and, as you saw in our test results, this is one of the best AIO liquid coolers we have ever had the pleasure of encountering. And not just in temperature control either, this managed to keep our processor amazingly cool while barely producing a whisper.

Throw in those lighting effects to the pump head, which certain add an extra dimension to the aesthetics while almost surely not putting off even the ardent of RGB haters, and we have a truly amazing product here.

Should I Buy One?

With more people becoming tempted to transition to AIO liquid cooling, the be quiet! Pure Loop 240mm is an absolutely amazing product not only in terms of it’s build quality and performance, but also through the fact that through it’s design, be quiet! has opened up the doors for this to be a perfect addition to an elaborate custom-loop cooling system while still making it a fantastic choice as a stand-alone solution.

I run the risk of waxing lyrical here, but in terms of 2020 and indeed recent memory, this is undoubtedly one of the best AIO coolers I have encountered providing you with truly fantastic levels of both temperature and acoustic control while at a surprisingly reasonable, and dare we say bargain, price! – Lest we forget too, it manages to do all that while, with its strong aesthetics, looking really slick while doing so! – Put simply, if I needed a new cooler, right now, this is the one I would buy!

Pros

  • Amazingly strong temperature control
  • Barely audible, even when the CPU is running at high loads
  • Entirely 100% viable for overclocking either individually or as an integrated part of a custom-loop design.
  • Strong aesthetics that should suit all tastes
  • Fantastic value for money!

Cons

  • None

Neutral

  • The installation is still a little tricky, but be quiet! is getting better!
