be quiet! Light Loop IO LCD 360: Premium AIO with Screen and Controller
be quiet! has launched the Light Loop IO LCD 360, a premium 360mm AIO liquid cooler that stands out not just for its cooling performance but also for its built-in 2.1-inch IPS screen. Positioned as a flagship product, it merges high-efficiency cooling with customizable features via the IO Centre software.
What's new in the design?
The main difference from previous models is the integrated IO Controller. This module combines power, PWM signals for fans, ARGB lighting control, and display data transmission into a single cable. The manufacturer claims this simplifies installation and allows hiding unnecessary wires.
The display features a 480 x 480 pixel resolution and up to 500 nits brightness. Through the software, users can output real-time graphics, load GIF animations, or video files. It supports Intel LGA 1851/1700/1200/115X and AMD AM5/AM4 sockets.
Light Wings LX fans are used for cooling. According to the manufacturer, they ensure quiet operation thanks to a redesigned pump with an integrated circuit and high-density cold plate. The radiator is made of aluminium, while the cold plate is nickel-plated copper.
Benchmarks and Performance
The KitGuru review tested the system with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X, ASRock Phantom Gaming X870E Nova WiFi motherboard, and MSI Radeon RX 6600 XT Gaming X graphics card. Cooling was evaluated based on temperature and noise levels.
The pump speed ranges from 1500 to 2900 RPM, with maximum fan speed at 2100 RPM. The declared noise level is 36.8 dBA at full load (100% PWM). In tests, the device showed high cooling efficiency and low noise levels, confirming the marketing claims about "whisper-quiet" operation.
Price and Availability
The specific price in the review is not mentioned, but the model belongs to the premium segment. The package includes all necessary accessories for installation and connection via IO Controller. The warranty is 3 years.
The model is available for order from official be quiet! distributors. It is recommended to check availability on the market before purchasing, as the new product may not be immediately available after the announcement.
