I added a second 120mm fan to this cooler using the included brackets, so it's working in a push/pull config. Under lightly threaded workloads my 3900x stays in the 45-55C range, and hits about 70C when full loaded. Even with two fans being used with this cooler, it's a quieter setup than the stock cooler that the 3900x came with.

Looks great in my case and provides great temps for the price. I have an 8th Gen I7 running at 5Ghz and temps while gaming can creep up to the mid 70 degrees Celcius range. Keep in mind this is an overclocked processor with an RTX 3080 in the same case at full load with an air cooler that costs under $40. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable air cooler that looks good and performs well.

So quiet, especially when set to quiet in BIOS. I built this into a new PC build, there was a hum from the box, thought it was this cooler. Boy was I wrong, my PSU had a max mode... I changed it to Eco mode, and am now a far happier man.

Good mid tier air cooler for the ryzen 7 9800x3d. I've had the chip boost over the specified advertised boost and hold steady well within 70C

To start, I’d been using my pc with a ryzen 5 1600 in it with the stock cooler no issues, but as soon as I touched overclocking the thermals shot up even at undervolting. I switched out to this cooler and running a modest undervolt/overclock I don’t see more than 75c on ryzen master.(Using only one fan!) The only reason this didn't get a 5 star from me was just because it was a little hard to get the cooler to thread on their bracket through the motherboard, and putting the can brackets on was a bit sketchy slotting in for me.(Both things very well could’ve been error on my part aswell seeing as its my first tower cooler)

[Employee of bestbuy] Easy to set up, easy to mount and keeps thermals well in a normal environment for an air cooler.

Cooler Master's Hyper 212 has been a staple among budget buyers for nearly a decade. They have reinvented their product with this black edition. I have used the Hyper 212 line for years, and found it to be unbeatable for it's performance and price. Sure, there are better quality air cooler products, but they do not range in this price. It does the job that it has always fulfilled, which is solid cooling as a budget friendly option. You can do some decent overclocking with the cooler, though if you are an extreme overclocker, I would seek other offerings. All in all, the classic shines once more in the budget range.

It does the cooling of the central processing unit well. Nice temps perfect for ryzen 5 3600x

Easy to assemble but a BEAR to install on the CPU, at least on my AMD processor. You will need a long-shank Phillips screw driver not mentioned in the instructions. I also had trouble with the backing retainer that installs on the underside of the motherboard. In my situation, there wasn't case metal clearance for it, and I actually had to unfasten the 9 mounting screws and remove two slide clips. But after everything (took the better part of a day), I'm very happy with the cooler. Does an excellent job and very quiet.

I put it on my first pc and I feel so awesome best birthday present ever

Bought this to use on test bench, works great for testing CPU's and GPU's, even 13900k

This was easy to install and is very quiet. It is able to keep my CPU cool even at a low speed. It looks very nice in black.

Great product. Easy to install. Works well. I redid my current computer

Great CPU cool and very affordable with a very sleek design.

This Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black seems to working okay. No issues of which I am aware after a week or so. The installation to the motherboard was not too bad until I got the part when I had to re-attach the fan to the cooler fins. What a chore. Cheap wire clips that do no hold themselves into the plastic fan frame when re-attaching. You almost an extra set of hands which is what the guy on You Tube had. There appears to another version of the Hyper 212 with a plastic clip that just pops right on. Get it. I would recommend the fan with the caveat above.

Such a great value CPU cooler for Ryzen 5 or 9000 series CPU's. Very easy to use, works great and even keeps 5700/5800X3D CPU's idling at 30C! What a great price too!

Good cpu cooler that won’t break the bank 100 percent reccomend

Easy to install, got my computer running cool again

Fan works well and its surprisingly quiet when hardcore gaming.

I bought this because I needed a new cooler. It came highly recommended and I would definitely buy again if I were building an air-cooled system. VERY quiet. I also upgraded the fans.
