Features

  • Dark Rock Pro 5 features 7 high-performance copper heat pipes and a special black coating with ceramic particles. This high-end CPU cooler achieves low temperatures even during periods of peak CPU performance in heavily overclocked systems.
  • The 2 Silent Wings PWM fans feature advanced fluid-dynamic bearings, smooth 6-pole motors and airflow-optimized fan blades. The front fan provides extremely high air pressure, thanks to a funnel-shaped air inlet in the frame. The decoupled fan mounting with vibration-isolating elements on the heat sink reduces noise-generating turbulence.
  • A Speed Switch allows you to choose between Quiet and Performance Modes, which control the maximum fan speed. Quiet Mode provides a maximum fan speed of up to 1500r/min and is perfect for normal applications. Performance Mode allows the Silent Wings fans to spin at up to 2000r/min and lets Dark Rock Pro 5 unfold his full power potential.
  • Thanks to a clever design, installation simple and elegant. The detachable mesh top cover with integrated middle fan is inserted from above. A black mounting kit with a pre-installed mounting bridge and fixing screws matches the black design of the cooler perfectly.
  • Dark Rock coolers have been renowned for their distinctive design for many years. Dark Rock Pro 5 continues this iconic design and can be recognized as a Dark Rock immediately. Dark Rock Pro 5 adds its own accents to the rich history of be quiet! high-end coolers.
  • Thanks to a nickel-plated base, Dark Rock Pro 5 is compatible with liquid metal thermal grease such as DC2 Pro. The properties of liquid metal compound combined with Dark Rock Pro 5 allow high-end CPUs to perform at even higher levels.

  • Keeps 5800x3d cool
Very pleased with ease of installation and efficiency of this cooler. Replaced 240 AIO that was no longer performing. I decided to go back to air. The Noctua NH-d15 was my first choice but would not have the clearance over RAM. I came across this gem. AMD Installation: EZ Gg. Remove default brackets from motherboard. Reusing your motherboard backplate, place spacers then mount new brackets on top of spacers. Apply thermal paste (included) and line screw holes (2) on cooler to brackets. I did this without removing the board from case. Both fans run off one header. Cooling: while it wouldn’t be fair to compare to a failing AIO with temps from 60c idle and 90c (tjmax). It’s fair to say that it is on par with the AIO when it was new if not a little better. At idle I average 38c and under gaming load I haven’t seen higher than 78c. 21.1c (70f) ambient temperature. Further improvements were made by replacing stock case fans with 4 Be quite pure wings3, Seeing another drop of 4 degrees on average. Sound: Much quieter than before. The recording I included is with the cooler fans and system fans at 100% and phone pressed to glass. It no longer sounds like a jet engine. And that’s worse case scenario. I have yet to hear it max speed during a normal gaming session. I can play games without needing headphones to block it out. Build quality: not much to say here. It’s hefty and seems well built. Overall I would recommend this cooler. I’m glad that my first choice did not workout. Having never used be quite products previously, I will definitely consider them for future upgrades/builds. I will update this review if anything changes in the future. My Rig: 5800x3d 4070tiS 32GB Gskill tridentZ Corsair RM850x Msi B550 tomahawk WiFi Corsair 4000D airflow ... show more

  • Works great
This seems to work just about as good as water cooling, and it isn't terribly hard to install. It's also quiet. I love Be Quiet! products. I'm using their cases, case fans, cpu fans, water coolers, and power supplies.

It's a beast of a cooler! Quite big but works smoothly! Easy to install too.

  • A great cooler with excellent performance and quiet. I love it!
This fan is amazing. I’ve always used aio coolers but this made me rethink my build. It’s a bit pricey but the performance cannot be denied and it is whisper quiet. Highly recommend this cooler.

But maybe that is inevitable since I have a 4090

  • Ryzen 5 7600x
I use this to cool my Ryzen 5 7600x and it is a beast. It's almost mute quiet and it's relatively easy to install. There's plenty of tutorials on YT for this model for installation. I decided to go with this cooler because if I'm building my pc, I don't want to go cheap on any part. Fantastic heatsink. ... show more

  • Replaced my water cool system.
I have had this air cooler for almost two months now and it has had great performance and exceeded my expectations that will make it difficult to make me go back to water cooled systems. It is quiet and efficient and performance improved overall. Really quiet even when running demanding games.

  • Super Quiet!
Just finished building my first PC and the Dark Rock Pro 5 seems like a great product! I can't believe how quiet the fans are, but I am not particularly experienced in this area. You can't even hear them spinning and my temps are always within the healthy range even when doing some more involved 1440p video work. ... show more
