The be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 3 is a compact CPU air cooler designed specifically for space-constrained builds and Mini-ITX systems. Featuring a slim profile with a height of just 127mm, this cooler delivers impressive thermal performance without compromising on compatibility. The cooler utilizes three nickel-plated 6mm heat pipes with direct-touch technology to efficiently transfer heat from the CPU to the aluminum fin stack, supporting a thermal design power (TDP) of 130W—suitable for entry-level gaming and multimedia systems.

Equipped with a specially designed 100mm PWM fan, the Pure Rock Slim 3 operates at exceptionally low noise levels, with a maximum output of just 24.8 dB at full speed and 12.4 dB at low speed. PWM control allows users to fine-tune the balance between cooling performance and acoustic output based on system load. The cooler supports both Intel (LGA1700, LGA1851) and AMD (AM4, AM5) platforms with dedicated mounting frames, simplifying installation. Its slim design ensures full clearance around RAM slots, making it compatible with tall memory modules—a critical advantage for compact builds. The matte black and gunmetal finish provides a clean, understated aesthetic suitable for any build style.
