I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

I will not attribute this to minuses - the cooler box was slightly wrinkled, but not critical from the word at all))
By the way, as I understand it, Ya. Market is something like an intermediary between stores and end consumers - i. E. like a marketplace. My cooler came from the store "PlayerRu". I am satisfied with the final product and delivery.
Well, summing up all of the above: the cooler is excellent and worth the money. Most likely, I’ll also take a case from beQuiet - something, and the Germans know how to make quality things, this cannot be taken away from them.

Pros

Arrived ahead of time, inside everything is in place and in perfect condition)) I decided to replace my Gammax 300 - I would not say that it does not suit me, on the contrary, it perfectly cools my R5 1600 AF with factory thermal paste. I took Dark Rock 4 for a further upgrade to a more powerful processor. What I actually liked: 1. tdp 200 watts - enough for the vast majority of processors; 2. Fairly quiet 135mm turntable; 3. Excellent design - without any rgb and other things. Simple, stylish and brutal; 4. An excellent set, where everything is packaged and located so that my respect; 5. In addition to everything, a screwdriver and good thermal paste are included in the kit.

Cons

For myself, I did not find anything like that, but judging by other comments, the following can be distinguished: 1) Cling the fan brackets to the radiator itself more carefully, because black paint is easily scratched; 2) Due to the fact that the fan itself is rather big - 135 mm - the cooler itself does not fit very well under high RAM bars, because it blocks the 1st slot. This problem can be solved in several ways: - Rearrange the RAM in the 2nd and 4th slots (the most obvious); - Raise the fan a little higher to fit the RAM stick underneath (won't work if you have a narrow case or very tall RAM heatsinks. Otherwise, you'll either have to remove the side cover/case glass (if the case is narrow), or if space allows , place the fan even higher - but then it will protrude quite well OVER the radiator; - Install a 135 mm fan not in front, but behind the fan, and put a standard 120 mm screw in its place, or, if there is no space for 135 mm in the back, simply replace 135 mm with 120 mm. But then you will have to look for slightly different brackets, because the regular ones are designed for a 135 mm screw, not 120.
