Conclusion and evaluation
Shadow Rock 3 was introduced this year as the new top model in the mid-range coolers from BeQuiet!. This German manufacturer, as the name suggests, focuses on the production of components with very quiet operation. The Shadow Rock 3 cooler boasts of very quiet specifications even at a high TDP value of 190 W. However, marketing slogans will never replace real tests, which is why we’re bringing you a review of this cooler today.
Conclusion and evaluation
Shadow Rock 3 pleasantly surprised me. This cooler also handled a high amount of waste heat well with a pleasantly low noise level. The cooler supports all current desktop processor sockets. Compatibility with RAM modules of bigger heights is also not a problem. In terms of appearance, the Shadow Rock 3 is suitable for any rig.
The application of the cooler itself is easy and as a bonus you also get a practical screwdriver with a magnetic tip. Overall, this is a very capable cooler. Only its price could perhaps be slightly lower.
