be quiet! Dark Rock SLIM review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 05/15/2019 04:47 PM [ 8 comment(s) ]

We review another be quiet! Dark Rock series cooler, this round the Dark Rock SLIM. With totally black looks the cooler comes with a single radiator, one fan and takes and all that offering cooling performance up-to 180 Watts of cooling power, enough for any modern processor and some tweaking of course as well.

Cool review as always!

Is there an ETA on the Noctua NH-U12A review?

"In idle you cannot hear the fans. Once we put the processor at 100% load with several full wPrime runs. Noise pressure is still not an issue. The cooler is silent when it comes to noise levels. Despite the low noise levels, we can hear the pump a tiny bit though."

I'm a little shocked.

I dont think it was designed for top performance, but rather for the appeal of its form factor (SLIM). For an air-cooler, look at all the free space around it compared to say, the DH-15. No nicking of your hands as you work around your case and RAM modules easily accessible.

Haha, fixed.
