Cooler Master Hyper 212

Zitat

Although it was quite a hassel to setup, screws, nuts, washers, bolts, you've gotta do them all. Not to mention removal of the socket. But if you pay close attention to the instruction manual I believe it's a simple procedure.

Also do note that although this is quite a large heatsink, it is pretty light for it's size. Fear of the mounting socket under strain should not pop up.

With so many heatsinks in the market, so many factors to consider, such as number of heatpipes, material , design, size, number of fins, etc... It all still boils down to one thing and one thing only, performance. And how it improves one's overclock.

How did the Coolermaster Hyper 212 fair? We've tested the performance, you've seen it, it outshines against a strong competitor such as the Zerotherm. Price wise? For a sum of USD $42.99 (SGD $64.70), you get a lot of metal and a nice LED fan. I am impressed that I can significantly derive a 40MHz increase in overclock over another third party cooler.
