be quiet! Dark Rock 6 is a powerful air CPU cooler for gamers and demanding builds, combining exceptionally quiet operation, high RAM and VRM compatibility, and switchable quiet/performance modes. Thanks to 6 heatpipes, dense fin stacks, and a Silent Wings 135mm PWM fan, it keeps your processor at low temperatures without distracting noise.
Semi-passive quiet mode and performance switch

Semi-passive quiet mode and performance switch

With a single switch you can choose performance mode for maximum cooling, or a quiet semi-passive mode in which the fan completely stops when PWM drops below 40%. The result is reliable cooling and minimal noise under typical load.

6 heatpipes and dense fins for efficient heat dissipation

6 heatpipes and dense fins for efficient heat dissipation

The combination of 6 optimized copper heatpipes and a dense aluminum heatsink ensures stable temperatures even with high-performance CPUs. The black coating with ceramic particles enhances heat radiation from the cooler.

Silent Wings 135mm PWM: quiet cooling with high air pressure

Silent Wings 135mm PWM: quiet cooling with high air pressure

The special Silent Wings 135mm PWM uses an advanced fluid-dynamic bearing, a 6-pole motor, and optimized fan blades. The small blade-tip clearance helps increase air pressure and improves airflow, while the cooler reaches only 31.1 dB(A) at maximum speed.

Dark Rock 6 raises the bar for quiet cooling thanks to smart fan control and a practical mode switch. Choose performance mode for maximum output, or semi-passive quiet mode, in which the fan stops completely when PWM is below 40%—for virtually inaudible operation at low loads.

Heat dissipation is handled by 6 optimized, high-performance copper heatpipes and dense aluminum fins. The special black coating with ceramic particles supports efficient heat radiation from the heatsink so your system stays stable during long gaming sessions or rendering.

The asymmetric design and cutouts significantly improve compatibility—the cooler is designed not to limit memory height and to work better with VRM cooling. Installation is easy thanks to the pre-installed mounting bridge, and the fan slides into guides for simple height adjustment and a cleaner look. The elegant design is finished with a magnetic top cover that hides the heatpipe ends and the mounting opening.

  • Semi-passive quiet mode with fan stop (PWM < 40%)
  • Mode switch quiet / performance
  • Silent Wings 135mm PWM – high air pressure and very quiet operation
  • Noise level only 31.1 dB(A) at maximum fan speed
  • High compatibility with RAM and VRM thanks to the asymmetric layout and cutouts
  • Easy installation and convenient fan mounting
  • Compatible with liquid-metal-based thermal paste (thanks to the nickel-plated base)
