Review on πŸ’¨ be quiet! Shadow Rock 3 BK004 CPU Cooler: Powerful 190W TDP Cooling with HDT Technology by Jim Agosta

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The rubberized fan mounts are flush with the case.

The rubber fan mounts are flush with the case, causing the case to touch the radiator and rendering the rubber mounts unusable. The same applies to using the fan of this cooler on the case. Each rubber mount needs a spacer of about 2mm. However, since screws are NOT used on the cooler, there is no way to add a gasket to each mounting hole/grommet to create clearance. Otherwise, you end up with a rigid mount that defeats the purpose of using a rubber mount! Needs some more design work! There should be some of these case fan rubber mounting pins for mounting/standoff.

Pros
  • Same as everything before
Cons
  • Only available in black
