be quiet! Dark Rock TF 2 230W TDP CPU Cooler | Intel 1200 2066 1150 1151 1155 2011-3 Square ILM | AMD AM4 AM3+ | Black | BK031

The be quiet! Dark Rock TF 2 has proven to be an excellent cooling solution for my compact Revolt 3 build. I was initially concerned about fitting a cooler of this size in such a small case, but it turned out to be a perfect fit! The cooler's design allows it to clear the other components in the tight confines of the Revolt 3, and it does its job admirably. My system runs cool and quiet, even under load, thanks to the Dark Rock TF 2. If you're building in a small form factor case and need reliable cooling without excessive noise, I highly recommend this cooler. It's a testament to be quiet!'s engineering that they can pack so much cooling performance into such a space-conscious design. The Dark Rock TF 2 keeps my system running smoothly and silently, which is exactly what I was hoping for.

What I needed for my micro ATX

Using this to cool my i7-10700k after I was getting outrageous temps on an old 120mm loop from corsair that I had for years. I decided to move cases to the Hyte Revolt 3 which is a small form factor case and wanted to switch to air cooling. This thing is great for the money and was super easy to install. Even though its MASSIVE it still fits in my small form factor case. idle below 40c and game below 80c on my 10700k, just as good as the 240 loop I've had in the past!

A fantastic cooler, working beautifully for my 3900X. Very quiet even at 90%. I'm getting about 83c at 100% load, low 40s on idle. It's very pretty with the all-black design, and the relatively low profile makes it highly compatible with a lot of cases; I'm currently eyeing some slim mATX cases now. However, the mounting system is a little tricky and fiddly when placing on a motherboard already in a case. The fan clips are also awful, I wish these wire type clips would be phased out. Lastly, my biggest gripe is actually the packaging. Part of this was shipping, but mine arrived severely bent out of shape, and the lack of foam and tight fitting inside the box contributed heavily to this, I think. Thankfully none of the pipes cracked and I was able to bend it back into shape. Again, partly due to shipping, but it's something to be wary of.

5900x still runs hotter than it did with my dying AIO

got it "like new" for less than listed now and it came clean with little signs of previous use. Once I upgraded my cpu to a 5900x my 180tdp compact cooler was struggling to keep it below 77 and had a couple hard stops. At first when installed this cooler in my PC it didnt turn on so I relived some pressure and it did expect it was jumping all over the place in temps and could only open on app at a time before a hard stop, on the third attempt before throwing in the towel I noticed one of the brackets was lose due to putting spacers on wrong and then FINALLY it worked and keeps my cpu below 62c full load. My case is a Corsair 175r with 5 fans and the front panel off which makes it look no different just better airflow and when on temps are 66c.

These is a perfect fit for my Hyte Revolt 3. It makes use of all of the available space, and still allowed me to mount a full size 140mm fan on the normal fan bracket. It keeps my 5800x3d plenty cool below thermal throttling limit, which is all you can ask for in a mini ITX case like this.

It did not fit my application and was returned Thank you for reading another review by Abe

I'm very satisfied by this cooler. It works very quiet. The temperature of CPU with 100% load is near 80-85 degrees.

مبرد هوائي افضل من بعض المبردات المائية

Bom Cooler, um pouco complicado para instalar, usando junto com um i5 14600k, no geral gostei bastante, recomendo.

Quality product but the custom made fans for it kind of kill it. Good luck replacing them either for better performance or for style (like led fans)

Overpriced for what you get
