be quiet! Pure Rock Pro 3 CPU Cooler Review

The be quiet! Pure Rock Pro 3 is a dual-tower air cooler aimed at mid- to high-power CPUs, balancing thermal performance with restrained noise output. Its straightforward design and focus on low acoustics make it suitable for systems where quiet operation matters as much as cooling capacity.

The be quiet! Pure Rock Pro 3 uses a pair of Pure Wings 3 fans to deliver good thermal performance with lower noise. The product’s highlights are:

  • High cooling capacity for modern CPUs
  • 6x nickel-plated 6mm heat pipes with nickel-plated base
  • 2x optimized Pure Wings 3 120mm PWM fans with funnel-shaped air outlet
  • 34.8 dB(A) at maximum fan speed
  • High RAM and VRM cooler compatibility thanks to a compact offset design
  • Easy Installation thanks to the  intuitive mounting kit
  • Compatible with liquid metal thermal grease
  • 3-year manufacturer’s warranty

The cooler follows the popular dual-tower design, which offers good performance but a large footprint that can create compatibility issues with “tall” RAM modules or VRM cooling solutions. To cope with RAM compatibility issues, you can adjust the height of the front-mounted fan.
