Very good
The package arrived safely, nothing was missing inside, works perfectly and is very efficient for a small cooling budget. I would recommend it to you. I just had a little trouble installing it.
V-shaped structure: optimised cooling!The V-shaped structure of the X-Vents ventilation system ensures an optimised air flow through the radiator for the most efficient cooling possible. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition is therefore an ideal and inexpensive solution for breathtaking performance.
The cooler consists of an aluminium heatsink with fine fins, 4 heatpipes 4 heatpipes heatpipes and a 120 mm fan fan. It will be perfect for cooling your processor. |

The package arrived safely, nothing was missing inside, works perfectly and is very efficient for a small cooling budget. I would recommend it to you. I just had a little trouble installing it.
Easy to install, does the job well. The package was received in perfect condition. I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product. Thank you
The pluses:
- Efficient (23°C at rest on an AMD 2700X and 55/60°C on a stress software with the 8 core / 16 thread at 100%) (but with 2 fans)
- Fan provided silent
The -:
- Mounting a bit long (having mounted a lot of fans, I found this one a bit longer, but you only do it once, it doesn't matter)
- Only one fan provided and it's a shame
I ordered them to install on an i5 9400f and it's surprising when you see the original fan you immediately wonder if it will fit. So in an antec P7 case yes it's fair but it's good.
I'm not sure if it's the same as the original fan, but it's a lot less turbulent and it's not like the yo-yo effect when you're playing games, and it's not like it's going to spray heat on the memory sticks and my Ssd. For the heat it and much less aggressive with the exit of the case that that of origin with divisions 2 then Rainbox six and ghost recon last version I do not exceed 43° with a part with 18° during on 1 hour. the installation has price me 5 minute and for the dust it is enough to deposit the ventilator without any tool just of them clips and a blow of spray with air
According to the many tests I have read, this is the best value for money currently (2019). Indeed, it cools very well, and it is almost imperceptible. Obviously, for overclocking, you'd choose something higher end. The assembly takes a long time (30 minutes all included), but is very simple with excellent instructions.
Note that the same fan in LED mode has a simpler mounting system, but not the same fan (more powerful and noisy).
Updated version of the Hyper 212. For a replacement of a ventirad on an old configuration, it may be necessary to remove the motherboard because the mounting is done with a backplate. Beautiful black nickel plated finish, nice brushed aluminium cover on top, presence of plugs on the heatpipes. Silently cools a Ryzen 5 2600. Very good value for money.
all parts are black, it's good, the cooler cools well for a 4 pipe, but note that the fan has a sleeve bearing. For 35€ in the current market we would not have had fluid dynamic bearing or even ball bearing.
So to know that at the beginning the fan will make 0 noise but after 6 months 1 year it will start to make some, compared to a hydrodynamic or magnetic, but these last ones cost 70-100€ just for air cooling.
If you want ball bearing or better, it's around 70€.
For comparison, I have a noctua NH-U12S cooling since 2013 with a magnetic fan (SSO bearing) and it still makes no noise in 2019. The 212 evo fan next door will either be dead or quite noisy.
