COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus RR-B10-212P-G1 120mm sleeve CPU Cooler

Comment:
I got this heatsink when it was on sale for 19.99, and it keeps my i7 920 pretty cool. For the price, you can't go wrong with getting one of these.

Comment:
For it's price, you won't find anything better than this. I lowered my CPU temperature by at least 12C, definitely worth its price.

Comment:
Great heatsink for the price. Keeping my i5 760 temps perfect at load. Would recommend this for any intel/amd system.

I use this to cool my 3.7ghz oced phenom ii x2 555, it works great, ideal temp normally at 30c, only thing i dont like it is its too big... cannot install a side case fan :(

Comment:
Very Inexpensive cooler. It does a fantastic job cooling and it comes equiped with a silent fant. Excellent product that matches and beats more epensive competitors.

Comment:
very big fan can install a second fan for better cooling reduces my heat by 20 degrees over intel's stock fan, love it way cheaper than others and works great

Comment:
This thing is huge, barely fits azza 910 case. Lots of options to choose, the instruction came with it is great. It runs cool and quiet.

Bought this to replace my stock Phenom II x2 555 BE. After unlocking an extra core, my average temp was 42 C. After installing this cooler, idle temp went down to 30 C. This cooler also is cooling my overclocked 555 up to 3800 mhz at an idle of 30 with the one unlocked core.BUY BUY BUY

It's a nice upgrade for stock fans. Definitely looks solid and does the job; it's not expensive, either.

This keep my E5400 l2.7GHz overclocked to 3.798GHz at 40 degrees celcius at full load! I got it for $31.45 including taxes so it's even more amazing. For the 40 degrees, I used Arctic Silver 5 for a thermal paste, even though the cooler came with it's own stuff.

Comment:
For AMD Phehom II X4 955 BE owner, this is a good alternative to stock cooler (no overclock).I had an Arctic Cooler Freezer Xtreme Rev 2, but changed for this cooler. Decrease my temp by 3 celsius (intalled today) ... But now the heatseek make full contact with my CPU (AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE). The Arctic Cooler Freezer Xtreme Rev 2 had a realy small contact with the CPU.

Excellent purchase, especially at $30. Many places sell it for a much higher price. Can't go wrong purchasing one of these. This review was modfied by poster @ 10-01-10 09:50 AM

All in all its alright for the price/performance it beats the competition. But if I could afford it I would of gone with something better.

Comment:
awesome cooler, unexpectedly works in east-west direction on AMD systems, comes with beefy metal backplate that wasn't to annoying to install, fan mounts easy and the hold down screws are easy to use with a longer screwdriverawesome cooler, WILL buy again, gonna mod the next one to fit into smaller HTPC case, at this price you cant go wrong

Comment:
For under $30, the CM 212 is a cooler known by all and one of the best for its price.For what it offers, is a great cooler that excels at cooling your CPU, stock/OC better than the stock cooler that is offered by AMD/Intel.Other coolers in the market do cost more and can be very close in performance. The Cm 212 do come with clips to add a 2nd fan, for your Push/Pull config.If you want a decent cooler, without the high end price. This is the best solution for ya.

Comment:
Why go with expensive 40-50 dollar hsf solutions when you can get the same cooling performance for a fraction of the cost (give or take a degree or two)? I've slapped this baby on my e8400 overclocked to 3.8ghz and it doesn't even sweat. Certainly beats stock any day! And heck, at this price, it's a no brainer!

Comment:
Bought this to replase my old heatsink because of fitting issues, worked perfectly straight out of the box.

Comment:
Offers high level of cooling performance for half the price of the competition. I sound like a used car salesman but BUY BUY BUY

Comment:
Bought this for my Phenom II 955, and am very happy. Idle temps are around the mid-30s and could be cooler once winter sets in and I clear out the dust from my case..

Comment:
Amazing cooler. Keeps my idle temperature at 24-25C and gaming temperatures at 34-35C max. Note though that these are temperatures with Arctic Cooling MX-3 added.

Comment:
I use this cooler for a phenom II 955, it does the job very well.With stock cooler, temps are around 43C idle. With this hyper 212+, temps are just around 37C idel. This cooler is quite tall though, it JUST fit in my apex vortex 3620 case, the heatpipes are 2-3mm away from touching the side panel. If you have a small case, check before you buy.

Comment:
Bought this to cool my quad core cpu, which was overheating. This cooler helped decrease the temps by 10 degrees or so.

Comment:
bought this cooler to replace my vendetta 2. this cooler can be oriented in both directions when mounted on an am2 or am3 board, air blowing horizontally and vertically, whereas the vendetta i had could only blow vertically. the fans are mounted with screws onto a plastic bracket rather than fan clips, so basically ne 120mm sized fan mount would work. no problems clearing my ram, but if ur ram heatsinks were tall, clearance might be an issue. 35 degrees on stock amd 955, 26 degrees room temp. overall, pretty good cooler.

I installed this for the following setup:CPU: Intel Core i5 CPU (Lynnfield)Motherboard: ASUS P7P55D LE LGA1156Case: Lian Li PC-A05NBThe case is a smaller form factor than most other standard ATX cases and is known to run at higher temperatures compared to a standard size ATX case. With the stock Intel heatsink, I was running just under 40C idle and over 90C under heavy load!!After installing the Cooler Master heatsink, my idle temperature dropped to under 30C and under heavy load, the temperature is now around 50C. Huge difference!!I installed the heatsink with the single fan provided. The fan runs very silent most of the time, other than on heavy load where you can hear it but still not very loud. I am very pleased with the heatsink as it has effectively solved my CPU heat issues while keeping fan noise down. Coupled with a relatively low price point, I wholeheartedly recommend this heatsink!

I bought this because a friend had recommended this to me. I have no regrets buying this and i would purchase it again for another build if i ever made one. highly recommended
