EXTREME COOLING PERFORMANCE

Thanks to its double-tower layout this cooler is a true cooling marvel with 220W TDP – just perfect for the extreme conditions found in the overclocked CPUs of compact gaming PCs.

INGENIOUS CONSTRUCTION FOR MAXIMUM EFFECT

Dark Rock TF contains two aluminum heat sinks. Two fans are pre-installed, but a single fan assembly is also possible, offering further space savings and even quieter operation.

VIRTUALLY INAUDIBLE OPERATION

The cooler is equipped with two Silent Wings 135mm PWM fans. They feature advanced fluid-dynamic bearings, smooth six-pole motors and nine airflow-optimized fan blades. The noise is a meager 26.7dB(A) even with 100% PWM fan speed.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE HEATPIPES

Dark Rock TF has six high-performance 6mm heat pipes with aluminum caps. They carry heat to the optimum location on the cooling fins. The special black coating with ceramic particles makes a perfect transfer of heat possible. Anti-vibration rubber inserts on the cooling fins of the heat sink further dampen noise.

SPACE-SAVING DESIGN WITH GREAT EFFECT

The space-saving topflow design provides ideal cooling, not only for the CPU, but also for surrounding components. It can quietly cool a high-performance, overclocked CPU in a confined space.

Can a mid-height downdraft cooler keep up with our overclocked Haswell-E CPU? We put the Dark Rock TF by be quiet! through our tests to find out.The two major advantages of downdraft CPU coolers is that they don't need to be as tall as cross-flow coolers...
Good Downdraft design fits dual radiators and twin 135mm fans into a mediumprofile 5.1” height, while still providing roughly 1.9” of memory clearance.
Bad Performs worse and costs more than competing 92mm crossdraft cooler.
Bottom line The Dark Rock TF brings be quiet! quality and “big air” capacity to mid-sized case users, but with less-than-ideal thermal and acoustic performance. The Dark Rock TF will likely benefit from an appropriately-placed side-panel vent when mounted inside a...

We've already seen a couple of impressive products form German manufacturer be quiet! in the form of the Silent Base 800 and the Dark Power Pro 11 Power Supply. This time around we turn our attention to cooling, something that that be quiet! have been inv...
Bottom line The be quiet! Dark Rock TF is an unusual cooler in that it's unconventional in its design and unusual in the way it is fitted. It unfortunately also doesn't seem to live up to its 220W TDP. But to dwell on these issues is to maybe miss the point of this...
