Description

The Dark Rock Elite offers unprecedented performance and cooling power with cutting-edge fan technology and iconic design. Join the Elite.

Exceptional Cooling Power

The Dark Rock Elite features 7 high-performance copper heat pipes and 2 Silent Wings fans, specially designed for maximum air pressure and perfect airflow. As a result, this high-end cooler always keeps your CPU at peak performance, especially in systems with intense overclocking and demanding workstations.

Silent Wings PWM Fans

Dual fans for massive cooling power

2 Silent Wings 135mm PWM fans provide maximum airflow for unprecedented cooling. Although designed for high performance, the fans are nearly silent at normal speeds. In silent operation, the maximum noise is just 25.8dB(A). This is achieved with advanced fluid dynamic bearings and smooth 6-pole fan motors.

Convenient Handling and Usability

Thanks to a rail system

The front fan can be easily adjusted in height, making the Dark Rock Elite compatible with almost any configuration. Adjusting the fan is very easy: thanks to the innovative rail system, the fan position can be changed in 5 steps.

Speed switch

Make it the cooler you need

The speed switch allows you to choose between 2 modes, each affecting the fan's maximum speed and PWM curve. The silent mode provides a maximum fan speed of 1500r/min and is the ideal choice for ultra-quiet builds. The Performance Mode allows the Silent Wings fans to spin up to 2000r/min and unleashes the full power of the Dark Rock Elite.

Impressive Lighting and Sturdy Appearance

A design that speaks for itself

The top cover features ARGB LEDs that light up in endless colors, which can be adjusted with any ARGB controller. Combined with its unique design, the Dark Rock Elite becomes the highlight of any system and is particularly suitable for exclusive showcases. The special black coating with ceramic particles not only adds a visual highlight to the air cooler: it also allows for perfect heat transfer.

    I've had it for almost 2 years, I have a Ryzen 7 7700x, yes it has factory high temperatures, 94 it says is safe, but the lifespan decreases the more heat it has. On full load, 94 degrees and above, 97-100. For the same money I got a liquid cooler and I have 80 degrees on full load. You judge now. For me, 1 star because 0 is not possible.

    Perfect in everything! Who needs liquid cooling when you have this tool? Don't think about it, it secures every powerful CPU. Worth every euro.

    One of the best coolers I have seen so far, with a 13600K on it and I have 25 degrees idle, and so far whatever I have played I haven't gone above 52-58 degrees, I highly recommend it, of course the only problem is that it didn't fit in my case, but again I don't care because I plan to change it, it would just be good for anyone who buys it to check the length and width of their case first.

    The best product available, I highly recommend it. Its size requires a suitable Tower. Silent with discreet RGB lighting. Easy to install with the provided magnetic screwdriver (I assembled the whole PC with it). Worth every euro!

    It fits with a Ryzen 7 7800X3D, the temperature does not exceed 67 degrees under full load 100%. Fantastic. It is bulky, the back fan can be repositioned as it is movable so it does not interfere with the RAM. For those who want to avoid water cooling like me, this is the only way.

    I had to remove the front fan because the memories were tall, but I have very good fans in front of the case, so no problem. And with lower memories, I believe the front fan would fit marginally. This cooler is very bulky. Next time, I will make sure that the memories are as low as possible

    Very good, I don't worry at all during games, I play without any fear, not even the slightest sound can be heard. As for the volume, I consider it perfectly reasonable. Check it out if you want to see my video:
