At first I was not sure whether to expose it in the launge as a piece of art or use it in my new computer. :-) Saying "wonderful" is not enough. It's a superb object. This new model is easy to install compared to the previous version 3, however there is an important point to notice: the backplate bolts have to be set not only in the right hole but also in the correct orientation because they fit in the hole just like a bolt in a wrench. I didn't notice that at first and all seems OK but I wasn't able to tighten the spacer nuts in a perfect vertical alignment and consequently I wasn't able to screw it because such slight improper angle. So I had to remove everything again, remove the rubber rings and check the bolts are perfectly orientated. I think Bequiet should highlight that better. About the fans: if your M/B have more than 1 CPU fan header, using 1 for each fan is better because the splitter has only 1 tachiometer line and as such one fan rules the other. Moving the 2nd fan on a dedicated connector let you have more fine control. Super super quiet. With an i5 8400 whatever I do the fans are basically useless: at 400RPM the metal is cold even when I 7zip a VM. FAN-TA-STIC!Read full review

I'm a fan (if you'll excuse the pun) of the Be Quiet! brand and have used these fans for years and their power supplies. They're reliable and perform well for years on end with no problems and they really are quiet - all-in-all a great purchase.

Recently installing a dark rock pro 4 on an fx 8320 @ 4Ghz stock voltage, I added only a single fan inbetween the towers running on max 1200rpm @ 20oC ambient room temp and I only get a max of 51oC even with the gpu running at 80oC. Thermal paste used was Arctic MX-4 with a moderate amount applied. fan is inaudible. Installation is a bit troublesome unless you get the mobo out. Personally it took me about 1 hour. yet I had no experience with replacements of coolers. But once its in, its in and you forget about it anyway. Extra clips to mount non-provided fans on the cooler and the slightly magnetic strewdriver are a solid bonus.

20 degrees off the stock cooler, only just fits as it's tall and the fan sits over my ram but amazed with the performance. 50'c at 3.9ghz

I use this to cool my r9 3900x, and I can't fault it. This thing is virtually silent, yet keeps my temps well below the thermal throttle tolerance. I had no issues installing it. It looks amazing. What more can I say! Just be sure to check your max cpu cooler height!

Item is super cool and quiet, idle temps on a 3700x is 25 to 26, under load for graphic work and games low to mid 40s. Fitting was easy although it's a big cooler, my case had enough room

Everything as advertized is EXACTLY to my liking!

Great COOLER, very tall so be careful with some cases, I have a zalman z12 plus and it JUST about fits in. The silence is unreal and the look is sleek, high profile ram will be an issue but heat spreaders can be removed if so; I would recommend installing with motherboard outside the case for ease of access but all in all once installed the performance is amazing! Would recommend to EVERYONE.
