Model overview based on user reviews
The "be quiet! Dark Rock Slim" is a compact and efficient CPU cooler, praised for its quiet operation and easy installation. It fits well in setups with 4 RAM slots and offers PWM fan control for adjustable speeds. While it cools effectively, it may not match the performance of larger models in the lineup. Users should be cautious when attaching the fan to avoid bending the radiator. The included thermal paste is considered subpar, with some opting for alternatives like Arctic 4. Despite a stiff cable, it reaches necessary connections. The cooler is compatible with various Intel and AMD sockets, excluding AMD TR4. Overall, it's a solid choice for those needing a compact solution without compromising on noise levels.
Pros
Cons
- fits 4 RAM slots - still cools - very quiet - easily mounts on the CPU - PWM (4 pin fan) - strong wire - Cools slightly worse than larger models of this non-slim lineup - Difficult to attach the fan, didn't figure it out right away, might accidentally bend the radiator if you don't know how to handle it - The included thermal paste is sketchy (I used Arctic 4) - Stiff cable, but it reaches where it needs to  LETS DO SMTH: use be quiet! Dark Rock Slim less than month |
В комплекте нет задней пластины на AM4. Они экономят на железке, без которой вы просто не сможете прикрепить кулер, и железку вы может быть получите, доплатив, только через 2 недели после обращения в их тех поддержку (которая находится в деревне Сосновке под Москвой:)).Будьте бдительны. Это косяк фирмы и ни один магазин вам эту пластину не компенсирует, так как ее нет в комплектации.Премиум фирма:) Позорище. Отсутствуют Полный П Sid: |

german engineering
be quiet! Dark Rock Slim is the most compact tower CPU cooler from the German brand's new line (TDP up to 180W). In addition, it is the company's quietest processor cooler: barely audible 23.6 dBa at 1500 rpm (maximum rotation speed of the supplied fan) and absolutely silent 11 dB at 750 rpm (half speed).
Copper and aluminium
The Dark Rock Slim heatsink consists of four 6mm copper heat pipes and 51 aluminium plates. The whole structure is covered in matte black paint with the addition of ceramic particles for better heat transfer. The cooler contacts the processor through a solid sole for better heat distribution over all tubes in case the processor die is not square, but rectangular (typical for Intel processors of previous generations).
Kvadratish, praktish, gut
The main advantage of Dark Rock Slim is its small size. Moderate height of 16 cm allows you to fit it into almost any, even relatively inexpensive computer case. Due to the low thickness of the radiator, the DIMM slots do not overlap at all, which makes it possible to install high memory modules without any problems. And the light weight of 620 grams minimizes the risk of bending the motherboard textolite.
double airflow
Complete with be quiet! Dark Rock Slim comes with a tube of branded thermal paste and an extra pair of brackets for attaching a second fan. If you want to increase cooling efficiency without increasing noise levels, you should take a closer look at the 12 cm be quiet! Silent Wing 3 PWM. Dark Rock Slim is compatible with all current processor sockets: AMD AM4, AM3+, Intel LGA1151, 1150, 2066, 2011, etc. The only exceptions are highly specialized AMD Theadripper processors, they require a specialized Be quiet Dark Rock Pro TR4 cooler.
