be quiet! Dark Rock Slim CPU Cooler - High Performance Cooling in Compact Design

The Dark Rock Slim delivers exceptional cooling performance with virtually inaudible operation, making it ideal for high-end builds with limited space. This compact CPU cooler achieves 180W TDP cooling capacity while maintaining whisper-quiet operation at only 23.6dB(A) at maximum fan speed.

Compact Construction for Maximum Compatibility

The Dark Rock Slim's compact design measures 47 x 127 x 159mm, ensuring it does not block memory slots on your motherboard. This space-efficient construction makes it perfect for builds where clearance is critical, while still delivering powerful cooling performance comparable to larger tower coolers.

Silent Wings 3 120mm PWM Fan Technology

Equipped with be quiet!'s Silent Wings 3 120mm PWM fan featuring 7 airflow-optimized fan blades and a 6-pole motor for reduced vibration. The fluid-dynamic bearing ensures a lifespan of 300,000 hours at 25°C. The fan operates at a maximum speed of 1500 RPM with decoupled mounting using vibration-isolating elements to minimize noise transfer to the heat sink.

Advanced Heat Dissipation Technology

Four high-performance 6mm copper heat pipes maximize heat conductance from the CPU to the aluminum cooling fins. The CNC machined copper base ensures optimal CPU contact, while the special black ceramic coating enables perfect heat transfer. Wave-contoured cooling fins with textured surfaces increase air circulation for enhanced thermal performance.

Universal Socket Compatibility

Compatible with Intel sockets 1851, 1700, 1200, 2066, 1150, 1151, 1155, and 2011(-3) Square ILM. Also supports AMD AM5 and AM4 sockets. The black installation kit mounts easily from above, simplifying the installation process.

Premium Build Quality

Features a brushed aluminum top cover with diamond cut finish for a sophisticated appearance. The entire heatsink weighs 0.62kg and includes thermal grease. For users requiring additional cooling capacity, the Dark Rock Slim supports an optional second 120mm retail fan.
