The Shadow Rock Topflow is actually a really good performer which surprises us because generally top down style coolers aren’t seen as high performance coolers, the idea behind them is that they are useful if you want to aid cooling on your Mosfet are...
Pleasing to the eye, Good build quality, Quiet cooling fan, Secure mounting system, Affordable
Not ideal for substantial overclocks
In our first review for be quiet! we found the Dark Rock Pro 2 to be an excellent product, can the same be said of the Shadow Rock TopFlow?It certainly can. TopFlow is an exceptional top-down CPU cooler which has good build quality along with a secure...
The TopFlow SR1 finds itself rather lost among its competition, struggling to stand out. Its key feature is clearly its supposedly low-profile design, and to be fair if you're someone who can house its 126mm of height but not the 160mm plus of taller cool...
The Be Quiet! Shadow Rock TopFlow (SR1) is a unorthodox proposition. At £35 it represents a reasonably well priced cooler. I'd say at that price you're getting a fair amount of performance for your money and an excellent level of acoustic performance.As u...
With the Shadow Rock, BeQuiet! shows quite a good cooler In terms of cooling capacity the Shadow Rock is able to compete with a Corsair H50 compact watercooler In this regard we have to say that the competition is very hard because we've tested only high...
Low profile design, Inaudible fan, High RAM clearance, Great value
Complicated mounting mechanism
Our overall impressions of the Be Quiet! Shadow Rock TopFlow are very positive. The build quality of the cooler is up to the excellent standard that we've come to expect from Be Quiet! and the entirely nickel-plated finish should complement other componen...

Last time we reviewed a CPU cooler, it was the Noctua NH-U14S , a monster 140mm single tower heatsink that ended up being the best air cooler we even tested (and outperformed all our 140mm closed loop liquid coolers on top of that).It had amazing performa...
High quality fit and finish, Cost, Performance for a top down cooler is amazing, Easy installation, Packaging/Product protection is great
Not available in the U.S
At this point I may as well admit that it’s probably time to let go of my bias against top down coolers. Well, at least in the case of the SR1. This cooler breaks many of the rules of coolers in it’s class, and performs even as well as some of the bett...
The Shadow Rock TopFlow is a rather large heatsink that focuses on performance over the small size of other top-down heatsinks. It outperforms the Samuel 17 and AXP-100 at all heatloads, ranging from 2-4 °C at the low end to 8-10 °C at the high end of h...
