Verdict

be quiet! Dark Rock 4

7.9 / 10 Expert Rating

A dependable, genuinely quiet single-tower cooler that's been slightly outclassed by be quiet!'s own newer Dark Rock 5, but still a solid mid-tier pick on sale.

SilverStone PF360

7.1 / 10 Expert Rating

A visually distinctive 360mm AIO that trades some acoustic efficiency for its shrouded look.
