When you consider the price, the performance, and the form factor of the Pure Rock Slim 2, this is a CPU cooler that is almost in a class by itself. I would recommend this cooler to anyone who needs something inexpensive, small and quiet. My only complaint with the Pure Rock Slim 2 is about the choice to use push pin mounting clips on the Intel adapters, but I don’t know if be quiet! could have hit such a low price point if they had gone with another Intel mounting system.
If you are looking for a budget-friendly adequate cooling solution with an impressive sound level to replace stock cooler, be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 has got you covered and comes recommended by us.
For the price, the Pure Rock Slim 2 does well and doesn't get loud even at maximum speed. Although it has to admit defeat to the larger coolers - as expected - it is completely sufficient for mid-range CPUs.
