CONCLUSION

    As you can easily tell from today’s review the brand new Pure Loop 3 360 AIO liquid CPU cooler by be quiet! may not stand out in terms of cooling efficiency and looks (then Pure Loop 3 LX line does a much better job due to its ARGB lighting - will try to get one in the lab as well) but it should be more than sufficient for low/mid-end CPU models. By using high-speed (2100RPM) 120mm fans with the Pure Loop 3 360mm be quiet! has increased noise levels compared to previous models and the issue with this is that its overall cooling efficiency doesn’t really reflect that. The refill port on the radiator next to the tubes is a nice touch but since there’s no bottle of liquid included in the bundle (again like with previous models) this means you should go out and get one when/if the time comes (meaning you’ll need to spend both time and money).

    As mentioned earlier be quiet! just released their Pure Loop 3 line of AIO liquid CPU coolers and so for now the 360mm model is available inside the EU for 116.65Euros (Amazon.de) a rather balanced price tag. At the end of the day based on its overall cooling efficiency and looks the brand new Pure Loop 3 360mm by be quiet! may not be award winning material but if you’re out in the market for a new AIO model you should check it out.
