"Love it"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

It is very quiet at any workload and keeps my AMD FX 8350 nice and cool under 50 degrees even at 100% load and about 18 degrees at idle, I can probably overclock my 8350 now.

"Best air cooler ever"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I own an 8 core AMD FX. Anyone who has one of these cores know that the amount of heat generated is immense and the stock cooler sucks. This is perfectly quiet even under full load on a stress test.

100% recommended to anyone wanting a good quiet CPU cooler.

"Easy to install, quite and cool!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Easy to understand instructions, supplies you with everything you need including thermal paste! Booted up my computer and my CPU was not only cool ( 19 – 23 degrees idle ), but I was also pleased that the Shadow Rock 2 is as it say “Quite!”.

Overall I'm very happy with my purchase, this is a great after – market CPU cooler for those looking to get a higher clock and are unable to reach that with their stock coolers. Highly recommend this product as I personally believe this is better than the CM Hyper 212 Evo which is a similar price, but I also recommend because of how cheap this cooler is… Definitely the CPU cooler for those who are looking to build a decent gaming computer but don't want to break the bank!
