    Excellent product, easy to install

    It is large, but does a great job of keeping the CPU temperature well below the limits, even at full load.
    It also lives up to its promises by being almost inaudible.
    Supplied with all the useful accessories, including thermal paste and very good installation documentation.

    Be Quiet is still a reliable choice

    I replaced my AIO with this Be Quiet cooler for my Ryzen 7 5800X. It stays perfectly cool while remaining quiet.

    Massive, high-performance and relatively quiet CPU cooler

    This cooler proves effective on Ryzen 5 or 7 or iCore 5 CPUs drawing up to 150 or 170W max, but is insufficient at full load on higher-end or unlock processors (i7/i9/Ryzen 9) unless you cap power in the UEFI or via the operating system.

    Big advantage: it allows the use of all DIMM slots, even with tall-profile RAM, thanks to its offset design. On the other hand, you have to settle for a single fan, which is fairly discreet except under heavy load.

    No frills here: it's black aluminum without RGB, but this model is very well finished, supplied with paste and a screwdriver, and above all available for most sockets!

    Here, I'm using it on a vintage build with an i7 4790 processor on socket 1150 drawing less than 100W, so the CPU ramps up under load in utter silence...
