BEST SELLERS

In CPU Air Coolers

This thing is massive. Much bigger than I had anticipated. That's not a drawback, though. This thing is keeping my AMD Ryzen 5 processor at around 30 degrees C. It is also much quieter than the smaller cooler I had on my old processor. This thing is awesome.

Be Quiet Dark Rock 5 PRO is the BEST air cooling solution for INTEL socket 1700 and AMDs as well!!!!! IT is huge, I broke down 5 computers trying to find a case it fit in! Some of which I am parting out, and others that need to be re-assembled! I had two cases that it would fit in, and one has an 8inch fan in the side, that I didn't want to take out to make room for this huge heatsink, so that left me with an NZXT case which only fit in because the fan was lower than the heatsink! The Dark Rock 5 has a TDP of 210, which I returned for the Dark Rock 5 PRO with a TDP of 270. I am running a i9-14900k, & a i7-14700k, they both idle around 29c. Under stress test mid 50s to mid 60s. One test it "popped up" to 71-73c for very brief seconds! I get NO THROTTLING from high temp or lack of power! Currently running i9 @ 5ghz ALL CORE! The i7 4.8ghz ALL CORE, but pretty sure I can take it up to 5ghz & stay at the same temps, with a little tweaking of the AC/DC Load-Line! GERMAN ENGINEERING what more needs to be said! Most people are saying you HAVE to use a water cooler on these hot i7s & i9s, but these Dark Rocks ROCK!!!! I did use liquid metal. Those that say you have to worry about RAM clearance, I have no clue! I am running 4 sticks of Corsair Vengeance, and I have the fan as low as it will goo, and I can still fit a piece of cardboard from a notebook between the fan & RAM sticks. Keep in mind the fan is designed where it can be raised a bit. SO put the RAM clearance out of your mind! OH, and the clip on fan are no trouble at all! AND the center fan comes out easy, don't know why some of the folks make comment about that. I seated & unseated it quite a few times! For me the "CPU fan header" was the pain in my?

Purchase and tech support was great. Fan comes with a thermal paste applied and everything needed. Easy to assemble. Unfortunately my ram cards were too tall so the fan could clear over them and had to return.

Was happy to get this cooler. Placed it in my server PC cooling my Ryzen 9 9950x and idle temps are at 43. When hosting games it stays in the mid 60s.

Great, it has a 270 watt tdp and it looks cool

Very quiet and keeps temps low

Easy install Good temps for such a thin heat sink All black Cool Master duh

I had read comments that the fan came damaged - mine was in perfect condition. It arrived early even though it came from overseas. Super quiet too :) Took me some time to find a fan to fit my motherboard as I'm not very techy, so quite happy i have my pc back in working order :D

I had a double heat sink and dual fan before this, but it was too bulky and hard to work with a ram upgrade. Prior sink would sit at 32 degrees idle, this one sits at 35 degrees, no biggie. Runs about 45 degrees gaming, playing COD. Very quiet!

Drop my computer temperature from idling at 90C(bad stock CPU fan) to idling at around 40C after installation. it also includes a tube of thermal paste in it.

Very efficient cooling. Product received on a very timely basis.

The cooler comes with easy to change CPU socket adapters. The fan is easy to attach/detach. It uses the same fan as the MSI AIO Radiators. (Good Fan)

Keeps my 5800x very cool

Great cooling potential. Does what I need it to do. The side fan is adjustable height wise. See photo demo. Adjustable speed switch for the center fan. Performance and quiet.
