Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler

Unmatched performance for the value, these are the tenants that guided Cooler Master engineers when designing the Hyper 212 EVO. Patented Continuous Direct Contact (CDC) technology ensures that the heat pipes are free of barriers while drawing heat away from the processor. A PWM fan ensures that fan speed can be intelligently controlled to ensure that it only speeds up when more cooling is necessary.

HIGHLY EFFECTIVE COOLING
4 x Direct Contact heat pipes with patented CDC (Continuous Direct Contact) technology draw heat away from the CPU quickly
USER & SYSTEM CONTROL OF FAN(S)
A wide range PWM fan can be controlled by changing its settings through supported systems or software to suit your noise and performance needs.
UNIVERSAL MOUNTING SOLUTION
Supports the latest sockets from Intel and AMD.
QUICK SNAP FAN MOUNTING
Utilize the included brackets to quickly add or remove fans for upgrades, replacement, or maintenance.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have! March 2, 2010
By V. Argo
Size Name:212 Plus|Amazon Verified Purchase
The Hyper 212+ is a must-have heatsink for your CPU if you do not wish to pay for pricy water cooling.

-Price
Only $30, when most high-end heatsinks are priced at $50+ on NewEgg. If you want your CPU to run cooler for a cheap price, the Hyper 212+ is perfect.
-Instructions
The manual has two to three pictures each step, along with the most minimal of a sentence that describes what the pictures want you to do. You're better off watching the youtube video that Cooler Master uploaded.
-Installation
Once again, I strongly advise just throwing out the given instructions and view the video that Cooler Master has uploaded to youtube. Installing was a bit tricky at first, one of the nuts refused to go the entire length of the screw, needed pliers to force it the rest of the way. After attaching the backplate, the rest of the process went very smooth.
-Performance
I installed this heatsink to a week-old i5 750 CPU. Temps were running 45C idle with stock heatsink. After applying the Hyper 212+, the i5 dropped to 28C idle. I have yet to encounter temperatures above 35C on heavy load. Overclocking the i5 to 3.6GHz, the temps rise to 37C idle, which is simply amazing. I previously tried to O/C with the i5's stock heatsink, and the temp skyrocketed to 65C after booting Windows.
-Additional Info
Comes with a 120mm fan attached onto the heatsink. The metal clips make it very easy to remove the fan for heatsink installation. Has an extra two metal clips in case you would like to add an additional fan on the opposite side for more airflow. In terms of noise, my case fans are louder than the packaged 120mm fan. The PC is positioned about 10 feet away from my bed, and I have no trouble sleeping because of noise.
The 212+ also came with its own thermal paste, a great little addition for those not wanting to spend $10 for a couple uses.

The only negative standpoint I would have with this heatsink is the size. Luckily, my case has a sidepanel window which bows out, allotting JUST enough clearance for the Hyper 212+ to fit. Make sure you measure the inside of your case before purchasing!

Other than water cooling, I have yet to purchase a heatsink that decreases the temperature by such a drastic amount. It is a great product for a cheap price, and I will be purchasing this heatsink for every new rig I build.

5.0 out of 5 stars OVERCLOCKER MUST BUY!!!! August 21, 2009
Size Name:212 Plus|Amazon Verified Purchase
I stumbled upon this item on accident. I was originally looking at the OCZ Vendetta II but decided to pick this up instead because it was $7 cheaper, excellent online reviews, and future-proof ability. Installation was a hastle because once more I had to remove motherboard from the CoolerMaster 690, but I enjoy the peace of mind with a well mounted hefty heatsink vs the push pins used by other heatsinks of the same proportions.
I have yet to take advantege of using dual 120mm fans, the factory fan seems to be suffice to keep my 3.75Ghz 1.36vcore e5200 consistant at 52C 24hrs on prime95. I cannot distinguish between the noise of this and the three other stock fans in my case except for my XFX9800GT's factory fan. I will recommend this to any enthusiast and even lable the product a "must have". I am looking forward to mounting this on a future planned socket 1366 or 1156. Have a good day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great performance/price ratio December 15, 2011
Size Name:212 EVO|Amazon Verified Purchase
Installed this item on a Core i5 2500k and have been using it for some time now. After monitoring it's temps after several hours of Prime95 and other programs, I am very satisfied with this item. i purchased this for 36 dollars, at that price point it is one of the best heatsinks I have heard of. Consistently gets great reviews from professional sites, which is the main reason I bought it. Temps for my system was around 25-30celsius idle and 45-54c avg on full load with Arctic Silver 5 TIM. Temps were taken from program core temp v1.0.
Cooler is very light, has excellent mounting system for socket 1155, isn't too tall, and is pretty darn quiet.
Must note, the main difference between this Evo version and the Hyper plus version is that the heat pipes are grouped together touching each other instead of spread apart and has more uniform base.
Highly recommended

[edit] I currently run a 24/7 overclock core i5 2500k of 4.6ghz on 1.375v. I have done 4.7 and 4.8ghz for short periods but I wish to not use much higher voltage which is why I use 4.6ghz. This cooler does just fine with these overclocks as long as you're willing to use higher voltages. Hope you have good case airflow.
