Characteristics
COMPACT CONSTRUCTION
Powerful cooling in small spacesThe compact design achieves excellent heat dissipation in small spaces, making the Dark Rock Slim the perfect solution for high-end builds with limited space. Due to its compact construction no memory slots are blocked.
VIRTUALLY INAUDIBLE OPERATION
Only 23.6dB(A) even at 100% PWM fan speedThe Silent Wings 3 120mm PWM fan features 7 airflow-optimized fan blades, a 6-pole motor for less vibration and a durable fluid-dynamic bearing. Decoupled fan mounting with vibration-isolating elements on the heat sink.
EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH COOLING POWER
Achieving an incredible performance-to-noise ratioDark Rock Slim provides an impressive rating of 180W TDP and achieves low temperatures even during periods of peak CPU performance. It is also possible to optionally add another additional 120mm retail fan for even better cooling.
HIGHLY ADVANCED DESIGN
The core features that result in high-end coolingDark Rock Slim is equipped with four advanced technology 6mm copper heat pipes that maximize the heat conductance. Airflow-optimized, wave-contoured cooling fins with small dots on their surfaces increase the air circulation. The special black coating with ceramic particles makes a perfect transfer of heat possible.
“Dark Rock Slim impressively proofs that exceptionally cooling performance and virtually inaudible operation can be provided by compact coolers, too.”
