In the end, we choose to give the Silent Loop 3 420 a gold award if you plan to use it on AMD and a silver award for Intel. In fact, while it is formidable on an AMD socket, we found its performance to be a little more mainstream on LGA-1700. (...) Otherwise, as far as noise is concerned, it's under control and there's no risk of you going deaf, even at full speed!
Overclocking is back with a review of the Silent Loop 3 420mm watercooler from be quiet!. The review begins with a general presentation of the watercooler's functions and physical characteristics. It then goes on to present the bundle and the design of the radiator and pump. It highlights the presence of a threadripper kit for AMD processors in the 360mm and 420mm versions, as well as the Silent Wings 4 with which the radiator is equipped. We then move on to the assembly, followed by a demonstration of the ‘very powerful’ RGB lighting. The media reviews the temperature and noise tests, and is generally very satisfied with the results obtained on an AMD processor, which delivers ‘solid performance’. At the end of the test, the media gave it a ‘Gold award’ for AMD processors and a ‘Silver award’ for Intel processors.
