The Aptly Named be quiet! Shadow Rock 3

It’s Cool To Neither Be Seen Nor Heard

be Quiet! specializes in quiet coolers and their new Shadow Rock 3 is no exception, with Guru of 3D recording a mere 40dBA on a Core i7 4790K overclocked to 4.6GHz.  Under more regular usage it will produce around 32dBA which is what most will experience as this is not a cooler designed to handle high overclocks.  The cooler itself weighs 714g measures 121 x 130 x 163mm and comes with a Shadow Wings 2 120mm specially designed to produce low noise levels. 

The Guru of 3D takes you through the installation of the cooler as well as a comprehensive cooler comparison chart to give you an idea how well it cools, as that is almost as important as the noise levels produced.
