be quiet! Pure Rock 2 CPU Cooler Review

If you’re in the market for a new CPU cooler and place a high value on low-noise output (which I certainly do) then be quiet! is undoubtedly one of the best brands around. As their name would suggest, their products place an emphasis on high-levels of cooling performance while barely making a whisper!

With the release of the new Pure Rock 2, therefore, we were highly curious to see just how good this new cooler is and, more importantly, if this could be the perfect addition to your PC build!

With the be quiet! Pure Rock 2 taking its name (presumably) from the ‘Pure Wings 2’ fan (of which one is provided with this cooler) this certainly looks to be an excellent proposition. Not only in terms of its overall design but also in terms of its sleek and stylish aesthetics which go a long way in dispelling the rumors (some have) that air coolers are usually unpleasant affairs!

Let’s, therefore, take a look at some of the features and specifications of the be quiet! Pure Rock 2.
