be quiet! Announces Silent Loop 3 Series AIO Liquid CPU Coolers

[btarunr]

be quiet!, the German manufacturer for premium PC components, is proud to introduce Silent Loop 3. This all-in-one water-cooling series represents its passion for technological innovations, all packed up in one AiO. With a powerful pump to ensure an immensely high cooling performance, Silent Wings 4 fans with closed fan frames to maximize air-pressure, an iconic cooling block design with ARGB LEDs, radiator sizes up to 420 mm, and an easy-to-access refill port, Silent Loop 3 can be considered a love letter to German engineering.

Silent Loop 3 lives up to the "be quiet!" brand name: a powerful 6-pole, 3-phase PWM pump with 3-chamber design ensures high-performance at whisper-quite noise levels. The second of the three chambers acts as a reservoir and offers space for the coolant to spread out, thus reducing turbulences before the liquid leaves the pump unit. And it's not just the pump that's silent: the radiator features up to three Silent Wings 4 PWM high-speed fans with silence-optimized fan blades and a funnel-shaped air outlet. The corners of the fan frame are designed to minimize air leakage, resulting in a perfect balance between quiet operation and the highest performance.



Obsession with details
The cooling block of Silent Loop 3 is unique in design and elegant in appearance. The block boasts an 1,800 mm² fin area, which is an increase of up to 2x compared to many other AiO's in this class. Such a large fin area is achieved by a specially developed screwless design for attaching the heat plate, resulting in a greatly improved heat transfer and making sure all hot spots on the CPU are covered. All three Silent Loop 3 models are able to effortlessly cool all processors on current consumer sockets; Silent Loop 3 360 mm and Silent Loop 3 420 mm even allow cooling of Threadripper processors (mounting kit included). To represent the sheer cooling power of Silent Loop 3, the cooling block design is all-black, with discreet ARGB LEDs for a unique look.

"With Silent Loop 3, we've pushed our engineering even further to create an AiO cooler that delivers top-tier performance while staying impressively silent. The powerful pump, optimized cooling block, and our high-pressure Silent Wings 4 fans work together to keep even high-end processors cool with minimal noise. Every detail is designed for efficiency, durability, and ease of use, making Silent Loop 3 the perfect choice for anyone who wants quiet high-performance liquid cooling," says Aaron Licht, CEO of be quiet!.

Simplified refilling process for a long lifespan
As always, with be quiet! AiO products, Silent Loop 3 features an easy-to-access refill port that makes for convenient handling, safe refilling and comfortable maintenance. A cooling bottle is included to extend the lifespan of the water-cooling unit. Flexible, premium sleeved tubes enable simple and flexible installation even in cases with limited space. All Silent Loop 3 models come with a 3-year manufacturer's warranty.

Silent Loop 3 will be available for sale from February 25 at the suggested retail price of $174.90/€174.90/£124.99 (420 mm), $164.90/€164.90/£119.99 (360 mm), and $139.90/€139.90/£99.99 (240 mm).

Producing 420 but no 280 is a interesting choice

These have nothing unique and are too expensive. Surprised BQ still releases AiOs if they are that mediocre. You can get a Liquid freezer 420 for 80€.

Review for 420 variant:

STS suspects that poor performance is mainly due to the fans being used which are not the best for radiator application.

Is it still an Asetek pump with an aluminum radiator?
