Be Quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX AIO Liquid CPU Cooler Unboxing & Installation

thanks you
you helped me alot
Happy New 2024 Year

What if i have more fans? What to do

how can you change the rgb colour of the pure loop 500 fx? Also did you notice the silicon of the aio fans where the x8 screws located to unstuck ? i mean the rabbers where the x8 screws are fit on to connect with radiator

TO EVERYONE WHO STRUGGLES WITH FAN AND PUMP SPEED:
Plug the pump in your pump header on your mainboard, IF YOU DO NOT have one: Plug it into a Chassis or System Fan header, and then go into your BIOS and select either FULL SPEED or TURBO on the header you plugged it into

DO NOT plug the pump into the hub of the AiO, the system will handle it like a normal fan then, which will result in a MUCH slower speed of the pump, thats struggling with the liquid flow

DO NOT use CPU OPT, this is just a additional fan header for the CPU cooler, that uses the same speed as the CPU Fan header

So. one fan should be in the RPM header on the Hub. the rest of the fans and the cooler block RGB cable can just go in the other headers of the Hub
Then you plug the Pump itself to either a Chassis Fan header or a system fan header (if your mainboard has a pump header use this one), then you start your pc, go in the BIOS and select either "Turbo" or "Full Speed" on the header you plugged the pump into

Congrats, you can see now the speed of your pump, and the speed of your other fans

Amazing guide, thank you mate! All the best, cheers.

Best guide ive ever seen for installing!
Bought mine last week and was a bit afraid to install it myself cause im pretty clumsy and never did this before
This guide helped me completely, everything is working as intended, my CPU has never been "cooler" before
Be quiet! just never disappoints, sure it costs a bit more, but its SUCH a good quality and the fans make pretty much no noise at all
It like you took noctua fans, but they dont look horrible

I dont see no cpu opt on my mobo

This video saved me lol

So that fan positioning is pushing air through the radiator out the top of the case right?

do i need to use hub? i have already 5 bequiet fans rgb with hub,i would like to switch evga clc 240 to be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX 280mm

is there allready water in it?

I bought the 240mm and it could not even keep my 5700x cool. On load my cpu would thermal throttle and get to 95 celsius. I tried 2 different coolers and both the same issue. Terrible when a cheap ID cooling aio keeps it under 65 celsius on full load!

is it ok for a 13700k ?

I am a new builder, and they really need better guidance on where to connect the wires especially from the pump and where to plug in the hub wire. On my mother board it has a Pump fan header, so I plugged the pump there and the two radiator fans to the hub then the wire from the hub to the CPU fan header. their instruction manual says nothing.

Is it good for oc r7 5700x?

Do i need to use the HUB? The Most Mainboards having slots for the AIO or Not?

This is without doubt the best instructional YT video of them all for this particular product, thanks for taking the time to explain about every connection regarding where it is from and where it plugs into. You have a new subscriber just because of this video alone.

you didnt say whether its 240 or 280

Nice video but the thermal paste application was not the most efficient one

very nice review, i ll install mine with 3 fans tomorrow following your instructions step by step

Thanks for these, my pure loop 2 fx 360 is coming into the mail

you have hdd's in 2023 loool

Ffs...i didnt consider this to be so hard... what have i done!

i have an older mobo that has only rgb header. is it ok not to connect the argb cable from this aio and will still have lighting effects(of course will not be able to customize lighting via app). thanks for the reply.

Very informative for an old-timer! 😎👍🏽

i have a question - will this pure loop be enough to cool i5 13600k? or maybe i need silent loop - my case is pure base 600 there can be only 120,240 or 360 fans on top or better go into dark rock 4 pro? (on front panel i have 2x 140 pure wings 2)

plsss can someone tell me can the be quiet pure loop 2 fx 240mm fit the be quiet pure base 500fx? pls comment I rlly want to know

Great video, I have a question I cant find the answer to. I have ROG STRIX B350-F which has 2 RGB connectors on the board but they are 12v, can I connect the hub to one of these or will it blow?

Please watch out how you Connect the Cables
One Fan should be connected to the RPM port(this fan will give the fanspeed information to the MB) at the hub and connect pump directly next to the RPM port(PWM 4Pin)then connect the hub main port to the CPU_FAN and everything should work fine

Thank you that helped alot!

Is the thermal paste good? Would it be necessary to swap it out for something like MX6? Thanks.

Crosstip? it's a flaming Philips screw driver...

What is the RPM on the hub used for then?

Hey dude, thanks for the video. I have the same AIO and for whatever reason, I can't access fan speed control within Windows, and even the BIOS doesn't seem to recognize the fans. Is there a software you're using to control fan curves etc? I installed the cables as you have in your video.. Let me know your thoughts :)

Can someone say me where the Argb Connector is on the Aorus Elite z690m ddr4? Under my Sata ports is a 3 pin connector but I have no clue that it is.

do you know if the 280mm would fit that case ? (500 fx) on top

wonder if this cooler will fit in the Meshify 2

Hello, sorry for a stupid question, but the liquid is already in the radiator or i add the liquid?
Thanks

I just bought this cooler to harvest the fans to use in my Phanteks Evolv Shift XT build. I ditched the Phanteks AIO cooler ARGB Halo fans for these, a better choice I think!
Nice video!

Would it be possible that you also could have mounted the 260 AIO-version on the top in your case? Because there is some space left.

Loving the FX design and aesthetics 🥰👍😇. If the initial ~$125USD price point for the 360mm cooler stays …. It’ll be a vg AIO …. at ~$150+USD it’s a bit far fetched and not worth it imo.

fantastic review keep it up

ECPU YOO I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS🔥 EVERY VIDEO MAKE ME LAUGH😭YOU PUT ME ON MY GRIND💪. I POST VERY FUNNNY AMAZON UNBOXING. VIDEOS JUST LIKE YOU😂. KEEP GRINDING
