Be quiet! introduces the Dark Rock 5 CPU cooler

be quiet! is a well-known brand in the world of computer components and accessories, known for its high-quality products and innovative designs. It recently introduced the Dark Rock 5 CPU cooler, a powerful and quiet cooling solution for desktop computers.  With its single-tower design, Dark Rock 5 delivers excellent cooling performance at low noise levels for builds that cannot accommodate dual-tower models such as Dark Rock Pro 5 or Dark Rock Elite. Like its larger siblings, Dark Rock 5 offers maximum compatibility with high-end consumer motherboards and RAM modules. With its sleek black design, Dark Rock 5 makes an impression whether you use it for gaming, in a workstation or as a reliable companion in your home office.

Dark Rock 5 CPU cooler features

The Dark Rock 5 is designed with attention to detail and performance. With its black finish and solid build quality, it fits perfectly into any high-end build. The cooler features six heatpipes that efficiently transfer heat from the processor to the large cooling fins. This ensures optimal cooling performance, even under heavy loads.

The Dark Rock 5 also comes equipped with a 135mm Pure Wings 2 fan that operates at whisper-quiet levels, even at maximum speed. This keeps your system cool and quiet, even during demanding tasks such as gaming or video editing. The fan also features rubber anti-vibration pads to keep vibration and noise to a minimum.

Better performance, easier installation

Dark Rock 5 improves on the high-end performance of its predecessor, Dark Rock 4, by combining a proven, iconic design with advanced fan technology. Six high-performance heat pipes connect to an asymmetrical heatsink with additional cutouts for broad compatibility with RAM and VRM heatsinks, while a consumer-grade Silent Wings 4 120mm PWM fan delivers ideal air pressure and virtually inaudible operation (29.8dB(A) at maximum rotational speed). For those seeking the highest performance, an optional second fan can be installed on the exhaust side. As with other Dark Rock models, the special black coating with ceramic particles ensures excellent heat transfer and an elegant look.

Mounting has also been improved: a pre-installed mounting bridge and screws make installation a breeze, while the magnetic top cover with mesh grille provides easy access to the screws and neatly conceals the ends of the heat pipes. Thanks to a nickel-based cold plate, Dark Rock 5 is compatible with liquid metal thermal compounds, and the cooler comes with a 3-year manufacturer's warranty.

Dark Rock 5 will be available from June 25 at a recommended retail price of €69.90.
