When pushed hard it becomes louder than you might expect, such as you might get when hammering out an AVX load, but we don’t mind having some optional cooling headroom when you need it. Under normal operation the NH-D15 can be considered truly silent. If you want an air cooler that can handle any consumer CPU on the market, you might find one to match the Noctua flagship, but you won’t find anything that truly beats it. Really, only 360mm AIO coolers outperform it. It performs brilliantly, it's got excellent fans that are a welcome black colour instead of that rather unsightly beige and maroon ( sorry, Jacob), its build quality is fantastic and Noctua's packaging, accessories and documentation are second to none. We love it too, and it's an easy inclusion on our list of recommended coolers. The Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Black is considered by many to be the best air cooler on the market. BIG -Louder than you might expect under load It will cool out of sight, mind, and earshot. If you're not interested in bling and want something that's a step up from bundled coolers, the Pure Rock 2 is a fantastic choice.
An Intel Core i5 11600K or AMD Ryzen 7 5800X won't present a problem for the Pure Rock 2.įor anything other than high-end CPUs, the Pure Rock 2 will keep your chip cool and quiet. Though perhaps this is a touch optimistic, but that’s down to the CPU manufacturers and their 'real' TDPs. The Pure Rock 2 is primarily designed to cool - unseen and unheard. But if you do have a windowed case, you could consider the black version which is certainly more attractive than the plain aluminium finish of the base version. We wouldn’t describe the Pure Rock 2 as the most beautiful cooler on the market. It feels really solid too, an indicator of good build quality and it comes in at a low price. If the brand name didn’t already give it away, the Be Quiet Pure Rock 2 really is quiet! It’s a single tower cooler equipped with the company's highly regarded Pure Wings 2 PWM fan which carries a low 26.8 dB(A) noise rating. Super basic looks -150W TDP is a touch optimistic
