Overview

Spectacular performance and (almost) silent operation

The DARK ROCK PRO 4 from be quiet! is a high-performance CPU fan with a spectacular design. Quiet and ultra-efficient, it is capable of dissipating the heat of the highest TDPs (up to 250W), a boon for overclocking fans and demanding gamers. The huge matte black heatsink consists of 90 aluminium fins and a highly conductive copper base. The ventilation is provided by two 12V SilentWings PWM fans of 120 mm and 135 mm with Fluid Dynamic Bearing technology.

Impressive cooling performance

Silence and performance without compromise for overclocked systems and demanding graphics applications! The Dark Rock Pro 4 offers impressive cooling performance (250W TDP) and delivers low temperatures even during peak processor performance. The performance to noise ratio is unmatched and incredible.

Silent even at full power

The two Silent Wings PWM fans feature the advanced fluid-dynamic bearing system, smooth six-pole motors and airflow-optimised blades. The Silent Wings 3 front fan provides extremely high air pressure, thanks to a funnel-shaped air inlet in the frame. Decoupled fan mounting with anti-vibration elements on the heatsink. Even at full speed, the noise level of the PWM fan is only 24.3 dB.

    Be Quiet! What more can you say?

    As I'm always very satisfied with Be Quiet! products, I naturally opted for the Dark Rock Pro 4 to cool my 7800x3d.
    The result: very reasonable temperatures (60 degrees in game and 80 during stress tests) with a very acceptable decibel level (my 4080 and its 3 fans are much louder).
    I really appreciate the fact that everything is included!
    With this Dark Rock Pro 4, you get a thermal paste that does the job, as well as a long Be Quiet! screwdriver that makes it easy to install.
    Buy it with your eyes closed!

    Mounted on an Intel I9 14900KF

    After adjusting the ventilation curves for the CPU and the front fans that bring in fresh air, this product is perfect and regulates the temperature silently.
    What's more, it comes with 2 clips for mounting a 3rd 120 mm fan (which I did).
    The result is that in my BeQuiet! Dark Base Pro 901 case, the ventilation is ideal and helps the CPU to cool down.

    250W TDP?

    My i7 13700k processor brings this product to its knees and tops out at 100°C under cpu-z.
    And no, I'm not on overcloc.
    Disappointed

    Good quality

    Perfect and effective for cooling a processor such as the INTEL CORE I7-13700KF, which is known to heat up a lot.
