Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro C1 Dual Tower CPU Cooler Review
Luke Hill / 13 years ago
We repeated the testing procedures with our Intel Core i7 2600K CPU overclocked to 4.4GHz using a BIOS voltage of 1.240V which crept up to a maximum of 1.288V under load conditions. We must remind you that we have discovered our processor runs slightly hotter than usual, but seeing as all tests use the same CPU, the results aren’t biased.
Excellent performance is again shown with an overclocked CPU frequency of 4.4GHz. The Thermalright and Phanteks coolers start to make used of their 8mm heatpipes by opening up 1.5°C and 2.0°C leads, respectively. Noctua’s NH-D14 and Alpenföhn’s K2 still can’t keep up with the performance of the Be Quiet! cooler.
