Review on ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ Silent Cooling Power: Dark Rock Pro 4 CPU Cooler with 250W TDP, BK022 by Janis Ziemelis แ Œ

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

Installation is simple and fast. I really didn't expect it to be so easy. Most of the time I was busy with installing fans, and the tower itself was installed easily the first time. Included was thermal paste without identification marks. I went to the site, saw only one thermal paste for sale and thought that the kit comes with exactly the same one. That thermal paste has a thermal conductivity of 7.5 W / m * K and I decided to use the thermal paste from the kit. But just in case, I asked a question on the site. As a result, I received an answer that the thermal conductivity of the thermal paste in the kit is only 2.5 W / m * K. It is sad that I received the answer when the computer was already assembled. For the top segment, putting such thermal paste - well, that's it. According to measurements in idle time, the ryzen 3600x heats up from 40C to 57C, in the stress test it was not possible to raise the temperature above 74C. At the same time, I did not hear the fans. But given the characteristics of thermal paste, in a year the situation may change. The thermal paste itself is very thick, the whole tube is gone (there is really 1 time, squeezed out to the last drop). In general, I do not regret it, but I would like cooler manufacturers to indicate the characteristics of the thermal paste in the kit.
