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.

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

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.

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.

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.

I haven't actually had the chance to install the cooler yet, but I wanted to leave a note confirming that these coolers are now (3/8/23) shipping with the LGA 1700 mounts. I had read the notice that you needed to get the 1700 adapters from the manufacturer directly, however they've recently started shipping these with them (according to customer service [and the adapter in my box]).I'll try to remember to update this once I've used it, but most of the Answers in the Q&A section, and kind of the product listing, indicated they wouldn't be included, so I thought some folks may find this helpful. I'm sure it will be fine, unless it's defective. I'm pretty happy it came with the adapter though.

blocks ram and rubs on gpu. I guess that is standard for air coolers. smh

Keeps my Ryzen 5600x at 1.2V @4.5ghz around 87c under prime CPU stress test.
