Cool, quiet and formidable. Is the third-generation Dark Rock Pro the best yet? For a good number of years the Dark Rock Pro 2 has been a go-to solution for enthusiasts seeking a high-end cooler that performs admirably, keeps quiet in use and looks the part.

The good news for be quiet! fans is that the German manufacturer hasn't been resting on its laurels and has this year followed-up with the eagerly-anticipated Dark Rock Pro 3. This third-generation cooler, currently priced at a lofty £65, is said to have been "significantly upgraded" to deliver "the perfect balance between cooling and serenity." Let's dive in and see exactly what's on offer.
