I purchased the Hyper 212 Black edition because the standard Evo clashed with the darker theme of the case. For starters, shipping was quick. I was home so I was able to receive my stuff as soon as the delivery person dropped it off. I ordered this particular cooler because I kept seeing great reviews about it. I was running the Corsair H60 sealed water cooling system but it was a few years old and I started to get a bit concerned with it leaking on my 1080ti and giving me a very expensive paperweight. I’ve included photos of how it looks, and my CPU temp during a game of Rocket League at 4K resolution. It was even if not better than my water cooler. Installation was pretty cut and dry, my system uses an AM3+ socket and I had no issues mounting the radiator stack. The only problem I had was my screw driver wasn’t the right kind to reach the screws so it took longer than it should have to get them threaded in. Mounting the fan was a bit of a pain but had I removed my upper exhaust fan it would have been much easier. I ended up removing it to connect the fan to my CPU fan header later on. As far as system specs, AMD FX-8350 processor ASRock 980de3 motherboard 16GB DDR3 ram, Hyper X Fury(I had no issues with clearance involving the ram) MSI Armor GeForce 1080ti video card All crammed into the very poorly designed Gamdias Talos M1 RGB case. The airflow in this case is totally dog poop so the fact that my temps are very reasonable is great. I did not use the supplied thermal paste, I opted for Arctic Silver 5, I have heard the supplied Cooler Master paste is not very good and will cause issues later on. Also, because of the cutout on the motherboard mounting surface, I didn’t have to remove the motherboard to put the X bracket on the back. Overall, I definitely recommend this cooler if you want a budget air cooler and you can support the size of radiator.

Works so well, I've recommended this cooler to all my friends looking for better cooling on a budget. The cooler is fairly large but cools really well! I saw about a 20-degree Celsius difference in temps under load since I started using it. You never hear it, it's super silent! They include all kinds of brackets, so it fits a variety of different boards. Overall, the build quality isn't bad; it's lasted several months with no difference in performance compared to the old one.

I started out using the stock cooler on my Intel Core™ i5-11400F Processor and the temps were higher than I liked them, getting up to 85 c at times when gaming. I'm not a big fan of water cooling so I prefer to stick with air cooled solutions. I've used Cooler Master 212's in the past and have always had good luck with them so I decided to give this cooler a try. Massive difference, as expected. The 212 lowered CPU temps down about 25 c, so games that were taking the CPU up to 75 c are now running at about 50 c. BE AWARE: it is a large cooler so you'll need at least a mid tower to fit it into. You might be able to squeeze it into a mATX if it's wide enough. Anyway, TLDR; the 212 is much better at cooling when compared to the stock cooler, just be aware that it is a large component.

My CPU temp above 95 with stock cooler. after installing this now it is contant 65-75 during game and stream. sometime spike 90 but this not any issue. on idle it cooled my PC at 38 ambient temp is 30.

The cooler is in fact quiet, but on heavy program it might be making a little bit of noise. Of course using headphones will prevent this, but if you are sharing a room with a roommate, or wife whatever, they might hear and say something tho, but overall is pretty decent cooler! About cooling, my CPU is a Ryzen 7 5700x, and as far I saw the temps, around 67~68, if you are using fans on the case (not my case) if might even go lower, prolly ~60. recommended for people that want a very good cooling system, and silent (without people on the same room)

This is an amazing air cooler. Easy to install and keeps my CPU cool. Although keep in mind that I did swap the fan for rgb fans in order to match the look of the build. I also bought this cooler as refurbished which was at a lower price.

Buen disipador y bonito diseño, incluye una pasta térmica y de buena calidad obviamente de cooler master, es de 15cm yo tengo un gabinete mid tower y entra perfectamente, maneja bien la temperatura, tengo un i5 10400F y es muy eficiente, no hace tanto ruido, si juegas con audífonos no vas a percibir ningún sonido, pero de igual forma no produce un ruido muy llamativo. En conclusión si la recomiendo y mas si es para sustituir el disipador que viene de fabrica con el procesador :D
