Verdict
be quiet! Dark Rock 5
8.3 / 10 Expert Rating
A well-judged mid-tier dual-tower cooler that keeps be quiet!'s acoustic focus at a friendlier price than the Pro 6.
Jonsbo TW3-240
6.2 / 10 Expert Rating
A basic, inexpensive 240mm AIO that only makes sense for older, legacy-socket systems given its dated official platform support.
