Product details
The Dark Rock 5 features six high-performance copper heat pipes and a special black coating with ceramic particles. The Silent Wings PWM fan is equipped with durable fluid-dynamic bearings, a quiet-running 6-pole motor, and airflow-optimized fan blades. A magnetic mesh cover conceals the heat pipes. For even higher air pressure, a second fan can be optionally installed at the outlet. Thanks to a nickel-plated cooling plate, the Dark Rock 5 is compatible with liquid metal thermal paste such as the DC2 Pro. The properties of the liquid metal compound combined with the Dark Rock 5 allow high-end CPUs to achieve even greater performance.
