Processing: makes a very good impression. Also looks really great!
Installation went surprisingly quickly and easily, I feared that the tightening of the fastening screws would be problematic, however, it worked right away.
Compatibility: Enough space below the 120mm fan, even for modules with a slightly larger heatsink. Also for the first PCI slot is enough space here expressed the chunks 2 against the graphics card. The Dark Rock Pro 3 is slightly narrower than many competitors, such as the Alpenföhn K2 or the Noctua NH-D14. Especially in micro-ATX motherboards, this may be an important factor.
Cooling capacity: Compared to the previously used Alpenföhn Brocken 2 under load (Prime95, in place FFTs, with AVX) than 6 ° C lower core temperature! All Attention!
Volume: Even under load and with an open housing almost imperceptible. In closed Fractal Desgin Define R4 case inaudible.
Conclusion: 76 are a lot of money for a CPU cooler, but I can the Dark Rock Pro 3 provide a strong buy recommendation!
