be quiet!Dark Rock Pro 5 Quiet Cooling CPU Cooler | Immensely High Airflow | 7 high-Performance Copper Heat Pipes | Speed Switch | Thermal Grease | BK036

This cooler is amazing. It is, as the name would suggest, quiet. It is very efficient, our CPU was running hot with a budget option but this keeps it cruising right around 37-40c even under a moderate load. This puppy MOVES the air, and it is especially effective when paired with a good airflow setup. One thing to note is that you will need a pretty large and open case for it as it is huge! At least twice as large as the budget option we used previously. Definitely worth the extra coin.

Product does exactly as it is designed to do, i got a nice mid tier case that completely makes this thing look massive, not that it needs the help but it guves it the appeal, this product in conjunction with the dc-pro liquid metal brought to life my new built pc and keeps it cool quiet and functional, money well spent.

Ez install, no bloating software. Super quiet and keeps cpu cool

It's a very good fan very big fan it take a lot of space so you might have a medium or full case for this one it's pretty good temperature on AMD5700x3dIf you live in a cold environment you should check the temperature

Very pleased with ease of installation and efficiency of this cooler. Replaced 240 AIO that was no longer performing. I decided to go back to air. The Noctua NH-d15 was my first choice but would not have the clearance over RAM. I came across this gem.AMD Installation: EZ Gg. Remove default brackets from motherboard. Reusing your motherboard backplate, place spacers then mount new brackets on top of spacers. Apply thermal paste (included) and line screw holes (2) on cooler to brackets. I did this without removing the board from case. Both fans run off one header.Cooling: while it wouldn’t be fair to compare to a failing AIO with temps from 60c idle and 90c (tjmax). It’s fair to say that it is on par with the AIO when it was new if not a little better. At idle I average 38c and under gaming load I haven’t seen higher than 78c. 21.1c (70f) ambient temperature. Further improvements were made by replacing stock case fans with 4 Be quite pure wings3, Seeing another drop of 4 degrees on average.Sound: Much quieter than before. The recording I included is with the cooler fans and system fans at 100% and phone pressed to glass. It no longer sounds like a jet engine. And that’s worse case scenario. I have yet to hear it max speed during a normal gaming session. I can play games without needing headphones to block it out.Build quality: not much to say here. It’s hefty and seems well built.Overall I would recommend this cooler. I’m glad that my first choice did not workout. Having never used be quite products previously, I will definitely consider them for future upgrades/builds. I will update this review if anything changes in the future.My Rig:5800x3d4070tiS32GB Gskill tridentZCorsair RM850xMsi B550 tomahawk WiFiCorsair 4000D airflow

But maybe that is inevitable since I have a 4090

This fan is amazing. I’ve always used aio coolers but this made me rethink my build. It’s a bit pricey but the performance cannot be denied and it is whisper quiet. Highly recommend this cooler.

This seems to work just about as good as water cooling, and it isn't terribly hard to install. It's also quiet. I love Be Quiet! products. I'm using their cases, case fans, cpu fans, water coolers, and power supplies.
