Be Quiet!'s Pure Rock Entry-Level Air Cooler Announced, Specs

Par un écrivain mystérieux

Description

stub Today, be quiet!, Germany’s top PSU manufacturer, announced that they are entering the lower-end CPU cooler market with their new Pure Rock cooler. This compact CPU cooler (only 155x121x87.5 mm) uses 4x6mm copper heatpipes to join the cold plate to the cooling fins and 120mm Pure Wings 2 fan. According to their internal testing, this fan, using 9 high-air flow blades (for low noise), only generates 26.8 decibels even under its full 1500 RPM load. The cooler can effectively dissipate up to 130 Watts away from the CPU, so it isn't going to work very well for some AMD CPUs or overclocking applications. Currently, the recommended retail price of the Pure Rock is roughly $42, including a 3-year warranty. We will be testing this to see how it stands up to the other CPU coolers we’ve reviewed, including previous Be Quiet! Models. Keep an eye on our Twitter and accounts to see what our thoughts are once we have more information regarding the Pure Rock. - Scott "Abibiliboop" Griffin.
