[SOLVED] Intel i5-10600k and BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4

[Cem Goker]

Hi guys, just wanna do a sanity check with the said CPU and cooler before I buy the cooler that will replace my AIO. I currently have an NZXT X73 cooling the CPU - bought it on March, built the PC on August. One month into the build and the pump makes sort of loud, constant ticking noises. I tried looking for solutions in this forums and applied them. While the noise did go away for a few hours, it came back again. Since I reside in the Philippines, RMAing the AIO will be a major setback for me as I can't really replace it with another AIO due to shortages here right now. However, I have looked into BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4 and would like to know if it can handle my CPU that is overclocked to 5 Ghz on single core and 4.7Ghz all core with a -1 AVX offset. Thank you very much in advance for any help!

How did you install the AIO? Might be an installation issue

Hello, I did watch that video from GamersNexus, but I can guarantee you that I do not have it installed like what he demonstrates. My case is an O11 Dynamic and the radiator is mounted to the top with exhaust configuration.

My Cryorig R1 Universal cools my 10600K @ 4.8 all cores just fine so the Pro 4 should be fine.

Cool! What are your temps like on idle and on load (gaming)?

Never look at idle I only judge under load. I can run OCCT to stress it and it's in the mid 70's.

It will very some depending on how much voltage you had to add for the overclock.

Since my O11 Dynamic won't be able to support the Dark Rock Pro 4, I am intending to get the P300A from Phanteks. Hopefully the temps will be as good since your case and the P300A is airflow-oriented.
