Review on 🌬️ Silent Cooling Power: Dark Rock Pro 4 CPU Cooler with 250W TDP, BK022 by Wiktor Czerwiski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product, I advise you to try it.

I threw it into CM Cosmos SE - I finally got it without problems. They said in the reviews that it’s just so gigantic that, well, what a healthy kapets. In fact, an ordinary cooler does not surprise those who have previously worked with hot processors and serious cooling. It keeps the temperature well, I use it the old fashioned way with Arctic Cooling MX-3, as if everything is within the normal range, the percentage is chasing well, I don’t see the point in driving synthetics - therefore, this time without screenshots with beautiful numbers. The mounting system could have been made more comfortable, of course. In general, I am satisfied with the purchase, but of course he would have to drop the price a bit, it would be super, so far there are no obvious advantages over the Silver Arrow, but it is just a little cheaper and costs

Pros
  • 1. Size. Everywhere they write that it is big, just gigantic. In fact, this is the most common two-section super tower, no more, no less. It fits into the Midi-Tower quite well, in general, straight into the lungs. 2. The kit is good. Fasteners for AMD/Intel, lots of gadgets, a handy screwdriver included. The price implies a rich set. 3. Quiet turntables. Downright quiet. Straight seriously. On hydrodynamic bearings, with rubber gaskets, the cooler is a direct standard of silence - before that there was dropsy - it also worked quietly, but water gurgled in it, right there - standard silence. 4. Materials, thoughtful design, and overall workmanship. Well, for such grandmas, as if it were badly done.
Cons
  • 1. The inconvenience of fastenings. No, I understand that the supercooler is healthy and so on, but Themalright Archon, or Scythe Grand Kama for example, are much easier to install. There is room to grow. Although I admit that the fastening system is reliable and good. 2. The price was turned down, of course. Even Thermalright does not ask so much for their legends like IFX-14 or Silver Arrow, and by the way, they have been leaders in this area for a long time. 3. There are no fasteners for sTR4. They could have put such fasteners - they would not have collected loyalty, but they would have avoided negativity.
