be quiet! Dark Rock 4 review

We test and review the be quiet! Dark Rock 4 CPU Cooler. Armed with totally black looks and a very silent fan, the new Dark Rock 4 might be able to impress you. It offers 200 Watts of cooling power, enough for most processors and a bit of overclocking, it, however, remains ridiculously silent.

I personally think it's hideous.

I wonder how it performs compared to Noctua NH-U12S and 14S.
In terms of cooling performance it's on par with the NH-U9S, which only has a 95mm fan, thus being louder.
Since the NH-U14S has a similarly sized fan (135mm vs 140mm) that would be the best comparison to do.

Looks like it wouldn't allow for those dimms to used in dimm slot 1 if you put the fan on the correct side. Sorry but I wont consider any tower cooler as good if it blocks wholly or partially dimm slot 1 surely it can't be that hard to design it so that with a fan on the front it doesn't block any dimm slot, it's easy to do either move the fin stack higher (like in the Tuniq Tower/Tower II) or back further by angling the heat pipes so that theres atleast 124mm between the fin stack an dimm slot 1 I don't know why HSF makers can't seem to get that through their thick heads

Not bad at all performance wise, just a few degrees off the NH-D15 as the article says - it's good that they've differentiated themselves from the NH-D15 by painting it black, it's a selling point for folks that like that look. I prefer the look of the bare metal of the Noctua coolers, but I am biased as I have the NH-D14!
