be quiet! Shadow Rock 3, 120 mm CPU Cooler, Black

The Shadow Rock 3 air cooler is rated for a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of up to 190W, positioning it for efficient heat management in mid-to-high-end processor configurations. Heat is transferred via five 6mm copper heat pipes designed for direct contact with the CPU Integrated Heat Spreader. The unit employs a single 120mm fan engineered for quiet operation across its rotational range. Measured noise output spans from 11.5 dB at low speed up to 24.4 dB under maximum rotational load.

This cooler implements an asymmetrical heatsink layout, specifically designed to ensure clearance for adjacent RAM modules on standard motherboards. The included mounting hardware facilitates installation across numerous Intel and AMD sockets, including LGA 1700 and AM5. Standing 163mm tall, the assembled unit requires verification against specific PC case height specifications. The fan utilizes a Rifle bearing mechanism and supports Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) control for dynamic speed regulation, delivering reliable performance with a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 80,000 hours.
