Customer Ratings & Reviews

Quiet and effective. This CPU cooler is well engineered and great quality. Happy with the purchase.

Have to start by saying the mounting bracket has been upgraded and is far more secure then previous models. That being said it's still too complicated for such a simple thing. Some many other venders have made this a very simple thing to figure out yet Cooler Master seems to go out of its way just to step over itself. If you've ever put together items from Ikea then this should be a breeze; if not, well good luck. As for the Cooling Aspect, it's fine, but the mounting bracket is just way too complicated to be useful.

I brought this to replace the AMD Wraith cooler that came with a 5600x CPU. Originally with the Wraith, at full utilities, the CPU can sometimes reach 94 degrees celsius. After replacement, the Hyper 212 managed to reduce the temperature down to 60 and below, even at max utilities during a hot California summer. You can also add another rear fan behind the heatsink to increase its cooling capabilities.

Works amazing. Only gripe is installation can be a pain but thats only a one time thing. It looks clean, cools around 30c less for my 3600 under load vs stock cooler so money well spent.

easy to install, works very well as intended. thermal paste in included is a bonus

My PC was overheating. This stopped that. Easy install. Google thermal paste included.

This is the 3rd Cooler Master - Hyper 212 Black that I’ve purchased. The first one was a few a years ago when I build my home media server that I'm still using keeping, the CPU cool. Second is on my main PC, also purchased a few years ago. Ryzen 7, 32, GB RAM, Samsung 970 M.2 500GB, ASUS MOBO 570 PRIME and 3070 FE. Last is on a i5 9th GEN 16GB, Samsung 970 M.2 500GB. ASUS MOBO

This cooler has been working efficiently for me. It does a good job of keeping my CPU cool during idle times (30-35 degrees C) and when in heavy use (50-55 degrees C) I would recommend this cooler, especially if your CPU doesn't come with a stock cooler. I do think however, if your CPU does come a stock cooler, this is still a better option in almost every way. Installation was a breeze and it was also very affordable.

cooler master is just a great brand, this product helps to keep my system cool plus easy to install

Easy to install, nice and quiet and keeps my CPU at a good temperature.

Very easy installation, great temps with an I7 10700K, and very quite!

really good product very easy to install priced really good

Cheap cooler gets the job done, i3 i5 no problems whatsoever

Installation was an absolute pain on an asus rog strix b450f. Took almost an hour. not my first time installing a cooler either, ive built several computers over the years and even got a cooler from a socket 939 to fit onto an FM2+ socket and that was easier. Keeps my ryzen 3100 cool at idle at about 32c but under load goes to 63c im Problably going to re-paste the cpu because it could be user error but it works. Its a solid cooler but im giving it 3 stars due to an awful time trying to get this thing installed

Great cooler i7 7700k keeps temps about 50c well playing games not loud atcall

This is a great air cooler for the price. Comes with the bracket to add a second fan for push/pull. Very worth it.

Amazing cooler for a value price! cools very well and looks amazing in black. Goes well with the build!

it spins, it cools, it's nice to look at and it's good price.

Best cpu air cooler there is, price is great. Better then microcenter.

Not bad for the price, and not bad for most CPU's either
