Be Quiet! showed off the Dark Rock LP, a C-type aluminium fin-stack heatsink cooler, which is designed for low-profile builds, as the "LP" in its name suggests. This cooler is designed to handle thermal loads of up to 130W, and supports all modern CPU socket types. Its design consists of a copper base that doubles up as a heatsink, from which four 6 mm thick copper heat-pipes emerge, conveying heat to a slim aluminium fin-stack that is arranged along the plane of the motherboard. A Pure Wings 2 120 mm PWM fan is included, and can be attached in a top-flow configuration. There doesn't appear to be enough room between the base and the fin-stack to slip in a normal 25 mm thick fan.

Big fan little heatsink. I guess the fan can be quieter, but I think I would rather have a bigger heatsink small fan.

I wonder about the price, I am guessing 36-40 Euro.
