Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this cooler fit in a mini-ITX case?

Yes, with a height of only 127mm, it is designed specifically for small form factor builds.

Is the installation difficult for beginners?

No, the inclusion of dedicated mounting frames for Intel and AMD makes the installation process intuitive.

Can I use this with my high-end overclocked CPU?

The Pure Rock Slim 3 is rated for a 130W TDP, making it best suited for mainstream processors rather than high-end, power-hungry overclocked chips.

Does the fan speed change automatically?

Yes, it supports Pulse-width modulation (PWM), allowing your motherboard to adjust the fan speed based on thermal needs.

What happens if the fan fails?

The fan features a rifle bearing with an MTTF of 80,000 hours, ensuring long-term reliability for your system.

Troubleshooting

Fan is making clicking or rattling noises

Check that the fan cable is not touching the fan blades and ensure the fan is securely mounted to the heatsink.

CPU temperatures are higher than expected

Ensure the cooler is firmly mounted and that you applied an adequate, thin layer of thermal paste.

Fan does not spin

Verify that the 4-pin PWM connector is firmly plugged into the correct CPU_FAN header on your motherboard.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely quiet operation at full load
  • Small footprint fits most compact PC cases
  • Full compatibility with all RAM slots
  • Straightforward, intuitive installation process
  • Sleek aesthetic with black top cover

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme overclocking or high-TDP CPUs
  • Limited to specific socket types
  • Smaller fan requires higher RPM to move air compared to 120mm units

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is simplified through dedicated mounting frames. Ensure you verify that your CPU socket is either Intel LGA 1851/1700 or AMD AM4/AM5 before purchase. During setup, apply a high-quality thermal paste evenly to the CPU heat spreader. For long-term care, use compressed air to gently remove dust from the aluminum fins and fan blades every 6 to 12 months to prevent heat buildup and maintain noise efficiency.
