On an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 3D with the stock cooler, it's always 75-95 max, with this one it's always 45-80 max, so it's worth it. Truly silent. Large in size. Not so easy to install, but ok. Indeed, it does not have a backplate for AMD.

Good and not very noisy. I put it in my son's computer with Ryzen 7 5800x and it's fine. We used it for Fortnite and it's okay.

Worked on a 7800X3D temporarily due to my cooler issue. And it worked with the default settings of Gigabyte, which hits 100% fan speed above 60 degrees Celsius. Anyway, the processor never reached its limits, and surprisingly I could hardly hear the cooler - definitely not an annoying sound in any case.

It is very honest for budget systems and weaker processors in general, but if someone is looking to get a processor-heater like 13th or 14th generation Intel i7, i9, this is definitely not the solution. You will definitely see thermal throttling.

Bottom line: Silent, satisfactory for the money, suitable for use in systems where the budget is in line with its price.

Top simply, silent, very good cooling. Those of you considering getting it, just need a slightly larger case

With the stock fan + 5600x I was playing PUBG at 85 degrees. Now it doesn't go above 65 degrees no matter what. It's kind of cute, it's not huge although it does take up some space.
It would have been easier if I had taken out the whole motherboard, the graphics card, and the RAM and then installed the cooler, which obviously I didn't do and I struggled. Other than that, everything is perfect.

My case is not very big or wide, particularly. It is a classic Midi case and fits well while leaving a satisfactory gap from the glass.

It keeps the 7600x at good temperatures and has been tested for many days over 7-8 hours. It doesn't make much noise; if you go close to the case, you can hear the fans, yes, but from the position where you play, I can't say that. I have it in push-pull configuration and it's just fine. Neither flashy nor excessive, nor minimal. It doesn't have weird colors like classic Noctua.

It is very good for the price and cools the processor much better than I will personally need, and it never exceeds 65°C. Also, it is not ugly and is a simple plain black.

After 4 years of working on a B550 Tomahawk with a Ryzen 5600X and maxing out at 70 degrees, it now runs with a Ryzen 7 5700X3D and stable temperatures again maxing out at 70 degrees, it is vfm. I can't read "found on the RAM" and other reviews when "you" hypothetically haven't done your job properly and start a build without knowing measurements of what components you will put on it, and the evaluation for this specific product comes out negative. First, you do your market research and then you shop. 5 stars!!

For 40 euros that I paid, it is not worth the hassle I went through. The Ruzen 7 5800x continues to have quite high temperatures and the installation did not fit because it was hitting the RAM

Installation is very easy and is done with the AMD backplate (for AM4/AM5 sockets). I am -10 degrees idle compared to the AMD Wraith Stealth (I have 40 degrees in July). I will come back for temperatures under full load. FOR CASE OWNERS WITH A MAXIMUM COOLER HEIGHT OF 150mm: In the Corsair SPEC-04 which takes up to 150mm height, even though this one is 155mm, it fit normally with half an inch gap from the case. So consider 155mm as the maximum height. The maximum temperature I observed was 55 degrees for now.

I got it to cool the AMD Ryzen 7 5700X, satisfactory temperatures without making noise after many hours of gaming.

This fan is quiet, performant and keeps the ryzen7 5800X always under 80 degrees. It idles at 40~50.
the quality of this product is simply amazing! it might be tricky to mount (just like every tower cooler) but in the end its totally worth it. huge improvement from the cpu's stock counterpart
personally i always remove the preapplied thermal paste. So i used the DC2 be quiet! thermal paste instead

It was installed on a Ryzen 3600.
It is not difficult to install as I put it directly into the case without removing the motherboard.
- Attention, it does not have an AMD backplate -
You will need the old one, the basic one.
And I consider this a flaw as it has everything else.
...............
- Now, regarding performance -
With the stock cooler, I was at 4060mhz frequency.
Temperature ranged from 77-80 under load /
85-92 in games.
..................
With the bequiet cooler, it went to 58-62 under load /
65-72 and 77 maximum.
The processor automatically reached a frequency of 4172mhz.
For 45 euros, it is very good.

I got it for a desktop that had an AMD Ryzen 5600G. It does a particularly good job with cooling and makes the computer much quieter. The only problem I had was with the installation. The assembly was easy (except that it took a little trick to lock the fan with the clips on the heatsink). The big problem I had was screwing the "bridge" to lock the heatsink on top. If it doesn't sit well on the processor, the "bridge" cannot be screwed properly.

Excellent economical choice for cooling processors with moderate requirements. It cools a Ryzen 5 3600 at its factory settings without overclocking to 64 degrees with a room temperature of 28 degrees.
The fan is quiet during gaming, at 100% it is slightly noticeable.

Top-notch cooler, for me, for its price. In the package, it has 3 separate bags with brackets, for Intel, AMD, Intel 1700, and a thermal pad. I tested it for an hour, with an i5 10600, idle and surfing, temperature at 20-22 degrees, without the fan rotating. It worked when I played a game. I didn't hear any noise, temperature at 38-42. It can also accommodate a second fan.

Unfortunately, I didn't calculate its height and I can't use it. I have 2 fans on the side of the case and it doesn't fit. It requires at least 16 centimeters of space.

Guys, I am not so satisfied. On a Ryzen 5 7600x, it runs around 50 degrees in idle, 65-78 degrees in normal use, and 92-96 degrees under full load. And I didn't see any difference with both the stock paste and the MX5 that I tried. The case is very clean from dust with good airflow, a be quiet Pure base 500 DX with 5 140mm fans on top. I don't know what else to do, maybe I'll have to switch to liquid cooling

The installation is relatively easy, I have it on a Ryzen 7 5700x STOCK with its pre-applied thermal paste without touching anything, and the processor has never exceeded 65 degrees in any usage so far. It comes with 4 fan mounting brackets to add a second fan. It is quiet both at low and high speeds.

One of the two screws was missing to support the "bridge" on the motherboard. I had to find a similar one from my old computer and improvise...

Note that it is NO LONGER compatible with AM3/AM3+ as they have stopped putting in the necessary brackets for the corresponding motherboards.

It's on an i7 6700 (yes, it sat with the stock for 7 years)
I haven't seen it go above 55c, with a very mild fan curve
After some benchmarks, peak 57w, 680rpm
73w 700rpm peak in prime95 blend
85w 770rpm and 59c in prime95 small (the heaviest setting, see image)
Of course, well-ventilated case with 2 arctic P140mm fans in front and 1 P120mm in the back, with my own curve, a little strong, to give the gpu enough air (otherwise it would have higher temperatures in prime95)

The installation was "ok", the plate that goes from the back has 2 sets of holes and it was easy for the screws to "slip" into the wrong one or two, so it required attention before tightening.
The fan also required more force than I expected to fit, since I didn't want to bend the blades.
It makes accessing the ram a little difficult but it can't be helped with a cooler of this size, and if necessary you can remove the fan, but you don't want to.

This is not what I wanted. It has a Pure Wing fan, which is the budget series of be quiet. What does this mean? It makes noticeable noise at times, which bothers me a lot. You can try changing the fan to a Silent Wing 3, but the cost is around 25€. So overall, it's worth going for a Dark Rock 4 cooler.

I will now try the Dark Rock 4 to see what happens with the included Silent Wing 3 fan.

It only took me 10 minutes to install it, having already watched some videos on how to do it. It already has paste so you don't have the stress of proper application. It's completely silent as expected and has lowered the temperature of the processor (ryzen 5 5600g) from 85-90 degrees it reached in heavy settings gaming (3060ti), to 65-75. I think it's worth the money and more. In the extra positives, it doesn't require the motherboard backplate to be removed, only for amd this applies, which means that the cooler can be installed without having to disassemble the entire desktop.

Excellent cooler, installed on an Intel i5-12500. I was lucky because it came with the bracket for socket 1700. Be Quiet! states on their website that all new coolers from April 2022 onwards come with the bracket for the new Intel processors, otherwise you can send them proof of purchase for the processor and cooler and they will send it to you.

Installation is not difficult, it comes with a manual but there are also informative videos on youtube.

So far, temperatures are very low and the cooler is quiet.

Very powerful cooler!! Definitely VFM (value for money) as it maintains better temperatures than many others in the same range! Tested on Ryzen 5 3600.

The only thing that gave me trouble was the pressure I had to apply to the brackets to fit the fan on the side. Otherwise, it's very good, used in silent mode and I've never heard it on an i5 10400.

I don't know if I was the only one who had trouble installing this particular cooler. I have a Gigabyte AM3+ motherboard and tried many tricks to get it installed, including using some parts from my old cooler. The two stars are deducted for this reason. On the positive side, it is quiet and cools the AMD FX6350 satisfactorily.

It has been installed on an Intel Core i7-12700K processor (Motherboard: Gigabyte Z690 Aero G). If you want to install the cooler on a 12th generation Intel processor, you will need a base for the LGA 1700 socket (which is not included in older packages). If the cooler box does not include the base, you can fill out the form on the Be Quiet! website (LGA-1700 Mounting Kit) and they will send it to you for free.
