It may not be the fanciest cooler out there, but it gets the job done. Pros: -Cheap for what it does -Keeps the 5800X3D within 70-76C when under heavy load Cons: -Included thermal paste isn't the best, I recommend using either a phase change material or third party paste -The fan on mine wore out after a few years of use, but it's a cheap fix.

The only heat sink you need. Classic for over 20 years. Only update is now available in black and much easier to install. Air cool is best for the money.

Great basic CPU cooler, fits in my MID tower case.

It's a cpu cooler. It has a large heat sink with a 120mm fan and pipes that connect to the cpu. It has all the required hardware including the thermal paste to mount it to AMD AM4 or AM5 cpus or Intel LGA 1700/1200/115x cpus

I can't say enough good things about The Geek Squad, for their excellent work and recommendations! The Cooler Master is keeping the box and whole system chilled. May not need an office fan this summer! Glad I'm a Total Tech member.

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.

Nice big fan that still fits most cases. Install is easy. It's quiet overall and should support demanding use too. I'm happy with this purchase.

it works good. :3 meow meow meow meow meow meow mrrp meow

Great little CPU cooler for a cheap price, I have it cooling a Ryzen 5 1600 AF and it does a fantastic job of it

Easy to install. It keeps the cpu at an acceptible temperate.

Great value, cools well, easy installation. Fairly quiet.

I've used a few of this Hyper 212 BE coolers. The BE is better than the earlier non black edition. Much quieter than the AMD Wraith Prism cooler and cools better as well. I just installed one on a test bench setup on a new Z490/i9-850k. Kept the temps at idle below 30C. Running Cinebench R20 brought the temps up to around 80C.

This cooler installs easily and is very quiet. An excellent value if you're not overclocking your system.

Amazing price, super quiet fan, and easy installation.

very solid build and looks good. the liquid evaporated from my water cooler from a slow leak, and this was far better than just a replacement. it's quiet. Not loud, but not the most quiet either. it's more than good enough. Not the easiest to install, look at all parts carefully.

Installed this for a Ryzen 3600 build and it lowered temps quite a bit. I added an extra Silencio 120mm fan for a push/pull configuration and it ran 2-3c cooler. For everyday use a single fan is plenty I would say that if you plan to overclock, run 2 fans. Overall it looks great in all black inside my case and is pretty quiet.

Is exactly what I needed! The only problem with this type of cooler is the tedious installation process. Overall it’s a great cooler!

Works and looks great! After my liquid cooling pump failed I picked this up on sale and I’m glad I did. Temps are about the same with liquid cooling and it’s just as quiet. The black edition looks sharp also, 100% would recommend to anyone not doing extreme overclocking.

Does what it do. Cools down the cpu! If you have a small case I would buy a bigger case.

I purchased this to replace my CPU's stock fan, as that broke. this one was easy to install, and cooled my CPU considerably better than my stock CPU. I appreciated the brackets for the different CPU sockets, and the instructions were easy enough to follow. Including a bit of thermal paste was not expected, but greatly appreciated!
