be quiet! has been introducing liquid CPU coolers for a long time now and recently introduced a new series of products that combine the hardware and software, called the "IO" series. The Light Loop series now is getting this treatment and adds an LCD screen at the top of the pump and full integration with the be quiet! IO Center suite, which is very interesting.

Designed for heavily overclocked systems, Light Loop IO LCD combines high cooling performance and whisper-quiet operation with a striking IPS display and intense RGB lighting, in 240mm and 360mm radiator sizes and in two color options (black and white). An included IO Controller enables software control, while daisy-chained Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans and extensive customization options make Light Loop IO LCD a visually impressive and highly capable cooling solution.

Peak performance with whisper-quiet operation

Like the regular Light Loop models, Light Loop IO LCD is engineered for maximum cooling performance. A specially designed jet plate accelerates the cooling liquid flow velocity, while the cold plate with a high-density fin stack maximizes heat dissipation for today’s flagship and high-performance CPUs. A state-of-the-art pump with progressive IC minimizes switching noise for whisper-quiet pump operation, while the daisy-chained Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans with funnel-shaped air outlets and airflow-optimized blades deliver both high performance and vibrant illumination.

Outstanding IPS display and vivid lighting

Light Loop IO LCD features an eye-catching cooling unit with a 2.1-inch IPS display with 480x480 pixel resolution and 500 nits brightness to show system information, videos, or images. The round display is paired with RGB lighting and can be customized extensively through be quiet!’s IO Center. The included IO Controller transmits signal and power to the all-in-one water cooler with a single cable. It can be magnetically attached anywhere in the case, while hidden fan cables along the tubes help create a clean appearance and reduce cable clutter. Flexible sleeved tubes ensure easy handling, and an easy-to-access refill port with included coolant bottle helps support a long lifespan.


Full control over your hardware and lighting with improved IO Center

IO Center for Windows has received a major update, now offering vivid presets and customization options for ARGB lighting, fan profiles, and system-monitoring displays. Through an intuitive interface, users can personalize the Light Loop IO LCD display with several preset or custom background effects and showcase real-time sensor data, such as CPU, GPU, or liquid temperatures and clock speeds. IO Center also supports color calibration to match LED colors with other RGB devices in your system. Backgrounds and lighting effects can be saved directly to the cooler’s onboard memory, ensuring that preferred settings remain active even when the software is not running. New in IO Center is Hardware Monitor, which provides real-time system data at a glance, keeping you informed about temperatures, frequencies, load levels, and the battery status of compatible peripherals, such as the Dark Perk gaming mice.

Additionally, IO Center Web offers web-based access to most of these options from Windows, Mac, or Linux from most Chromium-based browsers. It runs without admin access in most environments, making it ideal for workstations and restricted systems. Settings remain active after the browser is closed because they are stored in the onboard memory.

Light Loop IO LCD will be available in retail from August 11 at the following prices:

  • Light Loop IO LCD 360mm White: €234.90 / $254.90 / £179.99
  • Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black: €229.90 / $249.90 / £179.99
  • Light Loop IO LCD 240mm White: €209.90 / $229.90 / £159.99
  • Light Loop IO LCD 240mm Black: €204.90 / $224.90 / £159.99

Light Loop IO LCD is backed by a 3-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Features

Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black is an extremely high-performing All-in-One water cooler featuring an IPS display and RGB lighting, designed for heavily overclocked systems.

  • Advanced IPS display to show system information, videos, images and a broad spectrum of extensive customization options
  • ARGB lighting with vivid presets and individualizations are available via IO Center for Windows
  • High cooling performance and whisper-quiet for all consumer CPUs
  • 3 daisy-chained Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans with funnel-shaped air outlets for colorful and vibrant cooling
  • State-of-the-art pump with progressive IC
  • Flexible sleeved tubes and convenient mounting ensure easy handling and hidden fan cables

Outstanding IPS display

The Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black has an eye-catching cooling unit with a progressive round IPS display and RGB lighting. With a size of 2.1 inches, a high-resolution display and a display brightness of 500 nits, there are as many customization options as there are unique ways to display information. Whether it's CPU temperatures, coolant temperatures, fan speeds, images, videos, a wide range of presets and much, much more, your CPU cooler will definitely stand out!

WHISPER-QUIET TECHNOLOGIES

Jet plate, pump, and cold plate of the Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black are engineered for optimal performance at a whisper-quiet noise level. The precision-engineered metal jet plate accelerates cooling liquid flow velocity, delivering superior efficiency. Featuring a high-density fin stack design, the cold plate maximizes heat dissipation for today's flagship and high-performance CPUs. An advanced integrated circuit within the motor minimizes switching noise, ensuring whisper-quiet pump operation.

LIGHT WINGS LX FANS

The setup includes 3 daisy-chained Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans. Each fan features 16 LEDs that are perfectly distributed across the blades and are key to the stunning visuals the Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black offers. The fan’s 9 airflow-optimized fan blades not only reduce noise-generating turbulences but also ensure that Light Wings LX PWM high-speed fans provide the performance that is needed, even in demanding scenarios.

EXTREMELY HIGH COOLING PERFORMANCE

Experience reliable performance for the most intensive applications. With its powerful cooling capacity, Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black keeps CPU temperatures down even under maximum load, ensuring you're ready for any demanding task or gaming marathon.

ONE CONTROLLER TO RULE THEM ALL

Our newly included IO Controller transmits the signal and power to the all-in-one water cooler with just a single cable, allowing for control of the ARGB, PWM and display signals all in one place. In addition, the fan cables are now hidden along the tubes. So, with the Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black, no additional cables need to be laid from the daisy-chained fans to the mainboard or to a fan hub!

ALL UNDER CONTROL

The IO Center for Windows offers many excellent options for customizing the IPS display and lighting of the Light Loop IO LCD 360mm Black. To optimize the water-cooling experience, background effects and the sensor data shown on the display can be adjusted, the lighting of the pump head and fans can be configured, fan profiles can be set up, and the system status can be monitored. In addition, you can save the displayed background and lighting effects directly on the AiO without the need for the software to run continuously.

EASY TO REFILL

The refill port is easy to access, which makes refilling safe and convenient. The coolant bottle included in the scope of delivery makes it easy to achieve a long lifespan.
