Installation: Dark Rock 5 (AMD AM5 / AM4, Intel LGA 1700) | be quiet!

[@harmoniouscacophony379]

Thank you! It took a little while for me to figure out the long screwdriver. I had to push down on the fan itself to get the screw to fit inside. But thanks for the paper manual and this video manual! Both together really helped me.

[@BIGFOOT-ENT.]

At the long screwdriver part rn and I'm kinda pissed but can't help but laugh LOL

[@shmulikanglister]

Thanks for the video. The instructions that come in the box are bad. It took me almost an hour to get it right, after three different positions, smearing the thermal paste all over, and losing two o rings.

[@bequietofficial]

Thanks for the feedback! We will let product management know about your troubles understanding the manual.

[@JoeMushrumski]

Hey! A screwdriver wasn't in my box! ugh.

[@bequietofficial]

Bonjour personnellement j'ai le 4 💝. Le 5 magnifique aussi 👍🙏👏👏👏

[@PrasP-fg3ir]

Should the washers be snug against the back of the motherboard? Just worried about putting too much pressure...first timer. Also when screwing down the heatsink. Is there a particular torque or tightness for the screws?

[@bequietofficial]

Yes, the components should fit tightly. The screws should be hand-tightened, but not overtightened, so that the correct contact pressure is achieved.

Hello,Will it be powerful enough for a Rysen 7 7800x3d? Or should i use two fans on the ventirade in push/pull ?

[@bequietofficial]

Hey, Dark Rock 5 is ready for modern flagship CPUs like Intel's Core i9 or AMD's Ryzen 9 series. To be on the safe side for your overall system please use our CPU cooler check to see which of our coolers fit in your system and if overclocking is an option or not: www.bequiet.com/en/cpucoolercheck

[@thealgerian3285]

So it's exactly the same for AM4 and AM5 then? Cause I have one on AM4, thinking of upgrading to AM5 but I don't have any of the other parts that I didn't need for AM4.

[@bequietofficial]

Hey, we are not 100% sure if we get your question right but we hope this helps: The AMD mounting kit deleviered with the Dark Rock 5 is the same for AM4 as for AM5. So you can use the same AMD mounting if you wish to upgrade your CPU to a model with a AM5 socket. Please also use our CPU cooler check tool to make sure the wished for CPU is a good fit in terms of performance: www.bequiet.com/en/cpucoolercheck Better save than sorry!

hey where is the cushion like previous version ?

[@bequietofficial]

Hey, what are you reffering to?

[@t00nish]

I've installed this exactly how you did it but my CPU temp for both the 13900k and 12600k are at 100c even in the bios. What could be wrong?

[@bequietofficial]

Hey, best to contact our service team and let them check your overall configuration. www.bequiet.com/en/contact/service

[@irgendwas2589]

I have the same Problem with my 14600kf

[@BIGFOOT-ENT.]

Bro! It would've been nice to know i needed a EXTENDO EXTRA FUGGIN LONG Screw Driver!!! 😂😂

[@bequietofficial]

🤓 😆 😘

[@kouteki1337]

Check the styrofoam of the packaging. The screwdriver is tucked into it, from outside.

[@BIGFOOT-ENT.]

@@kouteki1337 yeah I found that after I found my own LOL. How do they include a whole screwdriver and proceed to say nothing about it.

[@grayabcson7363]

I dont have such a long screwdriver, will it mess anything up if i dont screw it in

[@bequietofficial]

Hello, the long screwdriver is included in the scope of delivery. It is essential that you tighten the screws of the radiator securely, otherwise the cooling performance cannot be guaranteed. There must be a certain contact pressure.

[@grayabcson7363]

@@bequietofficial I double checked the box and still can't find the screw driver

[@bequietofficial]

In that case please contact our service team so they can arrange spare part delivery: www.bequiet.com/en/contact/spareparts

[@Davidjpj]

I didn’t get a long screwdriver either, did you order from Amazon?

[@grayabcson7363]

@Davidjpj I actually found it after going through the package again, tear apart the styrofoam pieces that you're cooler was in, one of the styrofoam pieces had a back that was taped on, and if you pull that backing off there's a little cavity in the screwdriver is in there. I hope that makes sense

[@HidanRP]

Too much thermal paste, bad example.

[@soundlinkzach]

Für 40 Euro aber net mehr.

[@sidewinder86ify]

Surely 110euro.

[@BioHunter1990]

PRINT MANUALS.

We'll let product development know about your wish.

@@bequietofficial Seriously, print manuals are just...sensible. Especially if and when those webpages are no longer available.
