be quiet! Pure Rock 2, BK006, 150W TDP, CPU cooler, brushed aluminum, HDT technology

The Pure Rock 2 cooler is honestly one of my favorite coolers to have in my PC. I used to have a Thermaltake UX100 and got the Pure Rock 2 since the Thermaltake fan was so bad. I couldn't overclock my CPU and the RGB colors it gave out were so horrendous.Installation: 7/10The directions the fan came with was so bad. You're better off watching a youtube tutorial on how to install the fan. There are multiple videos on showing you how to install the cooler so the installation itself was easy. The directions the cooler came with was horrible.Noise level: 10/10The fan is quiet despite being overclocked. I guess their noise level reflects their brand name.Looks: 9/10Looks pretty clean in my PC. (I don't really have a big emphasis on my PC aesthetics)Cooling Power: 10/10For the price, this is actually pretty good. My pc is currently overclocked and I haven't really noticed any thermal throttling. I have a GTX 1660 Ti, a i7 9700k, and a NZXT H510 case (bad case for airflow). For the fans inside the case, i have one on top running as exhaust, two on the front running as intake, and one in the back running as exhaust. Temps of CPU have been hovering around 50-70 while running Lost Ark on high settings (1440p).Overall, this cooler is really good for the price.

I bought this after my AIO quit. It does an excellent job of keeping my 11700k cool. Temperature has stayed in the 30s Celsius. Very happy with the price and performance. I would purchase this again. This was very quiet as well! It also comes with thermal paste preapplied to the bottom of the heat sink.

Installation was mostly painless, the way the fans clip in makes it a little annoying, but it’s very small and I had no trouble replacing my previous cooler with the motherboard still in the case. I am currently using a Ryzen 7 5800x and get around 33-38 idle and I haven’t gone above 70 under load, even with applications that are very CPU intensive like RPCS3. The cooler is very quiet too and I barely notice it.

Install was pretty straight forward, included instructions do suck so i would watch the youtube video like others have said. Hardest part about the install was getting the fan clipped on and I had to remove my GPU to get the bottom clip on as there is no room to do it without taking the card out, at least on my microATX board. Running a i5-11400f and it keeps the cpu around 60-67c while gaming for hours with fan speed only around 65-70%...since then, I adjusted my fan curves to go full speed at 65c instead of 70c so we'll see if it does even better! Oh and its pretty much silent at any speed except full speed which you can just slightly hear it(barely), so its pretty dang quiet.
