Versatile and quiet low-profile tower-type CPU air cooler with a horizontal single-section radiator, a large 135mm fan and five high-efficiency copper heat pipes. Differs in small height (112 mm) that gives the chance for installation in compact cases with limited free space. An important feature of the Be quiet Shadow Rock TF 2 CPU cooler is the horizontal fan arrangement, which provides moderate airflow around the socket space of the motherboard and cools the power elements of the CPU VRM converter.
It is positioned as a product of the middle price category, designed to cool a wide range of Intel / AMD processors of the Mainstream, Performance class with a heat dissipation of up to 160 W. The performance of the nine-bladed full-profile fan with long life bearing is PWM controlled, and the impeller speed can be varied from 400 to 1400 rpm with a very moderate noise level of up to 24.4 dB(A).

Model overview based on user reviews
The be quiet! Shadow Rock TF 2 is a high-quality active cooler designed for processors, featuring a silent operation and excellent build quality. Users appreciate its ease of installation, allowing for easy RAM removal even when the cooler is mounted. It supports a wide range of sockets, making it versatile across different platforms. The cooler effectively manages heat, keeping an old Athlon X4 840 processor at 50 degrees under load without additional case fans. While the price is considered high, the outstanding material quality and performance justify the cost. Overall, it is highly recommended for those who value silence and quality in their cooling systems.
Pros
Cons
The old Athlon X4 840 processor heats up to 50 degrees under load (AIDA test, editing). However, this is assuming there are no intake or exhaust coolers in the case. The CPU fan is silent, but you can hear the buzzing of the Chieftec PSU fan. Even if the cooler is installed, you can easily remove the RAM if necessary. It's a bit harder with the power plug. But it can also be removed if needed. Simple instructions and a cross-platform cooler, which is very pleasing :) Cost  Denis Shendrik: use be quiet! Shadow Rock TF 2 less than month |
My first purchase from be quiet and I am incredibly satisfied with it. The first thing I want to do is update absolutely everything with components from this manufacturer. (Case, PSU) As a big fan of silence, I recommend it to everyone. - Just an incredible fan, it's like it doesn't exist. It's impossible to hear - Good package - Build quality - No  Evgeniy: use be quiet! Shadow Rock TF 2 less than month |
