I replaced the stock cooler on my Ryzen 3700X with the Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black edition and it has brought my temps down an average of 10-12 degrees. I run AutoCad on my rig as my profession so this rig gets used. The cooler keeps up with it with ease. The RGB fan is independently controlled by the included control module and is powered from the PSU by way of a molex connector. I will eventually add a second fan on the backside of it but for now since I do not overclock (no need to with Ryzen CPU's anyway), it is doing a very good job and looks good. The finish is super classy and is impressive.

Good looking cooler that gets the job done. The only down side is that I can fit all 4 ram sticks in the mb because the fan is in the way. But I recommend it over Ryzens 5 stock cooler. It keeps my Ryzen 5 3600X cool when gaming for long hours.

Very good cooler and good temps but pretty bulky. Wont fit in alot of cases. Can fit in the corsair 220t case just fine tho

This works really good at cooling the CPU, it has great surface coverage, it runs quiet, and under rare conditions I only need to turn the fan up to 75%. I opted to add the second fan, it includes the optional second fan mounting brackets in the box. I'm using it to cool an AMD Ryzen 5 1600. It comes with a push button controller you plugin for the fan LED's and the LED's for the fan are multiple colors and have multiple modes. There wasn't instructions on the lighting control module settings in the box. Right now fan speed running at 30%, 1 fan on 10% and all others on 50% the temp is 26C/78F, 29C to 33C sometimes 36C is more common, it rarely ever goes higher than 41C and up to 107F or 111F under heaviest loads. Before with stock fan it was running hotter and the higher temps lasted much longer, it took a longtime to bring the temps down before. The only downside is you need to think about cable management a bit with this cooler especially if you add a second fan. I highly recommend this version of the CPU cooler, the version before this one doesn't seem as good, the mounting area coverage and mounting configuration of that version compared to this one isn't as good. The price could've been just a slightest bit lower at around $35 to $40 would have been nice.

Definitely more quiet, but CPU wasn’t that much more noticeably cool until I purchased an extra fan for the other side. Then the temp drop was around 10degrees Celsius.

Amazing Cooler have no problems at all with my CPU temps

This is a perfect budget friendly cpu cooler! Quick install and looks great! Shipping was fast as well. Worth the money!

Easy installations and good upgrade from my stock pc fans that sucked horribly. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is the LED lights on the product itself ended up going out within 30 min of me having installed it. I could’ve gone through the whole steps of taking it all off and just exchanging it but for the amount of time it took to install I decided to just keep the one with the LED lights out on it.

I didn’t get the immense cooling improvement that others did with this cooler. During gameplay my temps hover around 50-60 and get to the high 60s. However, this cooler is EXTREMELY quiet, at least compared to my previous one. It was actually insane to me how quiet it was; it’s not much louder than my case fans and I can’t notice much of a difference when it’s at idle or under load. If you’re in need of a quiet cooler this is a great option. If you want better cooling, you may want to go for a double fan push/pull setup to see improved temps over a regular cooler. Setup was pretty straightforward; the hardest part is just cable management and getting your connectors in the right place. The RGB connector is 4 pin and my case’s RGB is 3 pin, so I couldn’t connect it to my case’s RGB setup and had to plug it into the motherboard and control it with software apart from my case’s buttons but that is a minor annoyance and depending on your case’s RGB setup it may work seamlessly.

Very easy to install and keeps temperatures low on my Ryzen 2600. Definitely Recommend it

Really good iten work great and have Nice colors easy to instal

Does fine cooling my 9600k overclocked to 5.0mhz. Even took it to 5.2 when benchmarking and the highest temp was around 86 degrees Celsius for a short amount of time. Of course I added a 2nd fan that I had lying around.

Nice cooler, have used 3 of the non-LED 212's when building PC's for clients so it was a no brainer to get another to build a new game PC for my son. Easily matched LED color to video card using onboard headers and software on a Gigabyte motherboard.

Amazing cooler. It dropped my overall temps by 10c. Worth it and it looks amazing. It's just a little bit difficult to install, but if you follow instructions it should be fine.

This cpu air cooler performs well and it definitely great value for the price and it looks nice if you put rgb fans on it But the installation process can be difficult and frustrating if you don’t read the manual correctly But if mounted properly the cooler works like a charm with no issues

Must have for pc owners. Upgraded my stock cooler to this ones and WOW does it makes a huge difference. My cpu temp was in the high 70’s sometimes in the low 80’s. Once I added this cooler master the temp is now on the low 70’s. Works like a charm.

Huge upgrade from my stock case cooler. Performs well on my i7-11700F. Stock cooler was averaging 71C under load now im down to 55C-65C under heavy gaming sessions.

Great cpu fan for the price. works well. The booklet mentioning how to install isn't the best. Look up on youtube how to install it instead.

The Hyper 212 Paired with thermal grizzly LM has effevtibly dropped my temps over 30C while under load. while it is a larger cooler it is ascetically pleasing to they eyes and even better for the health of your rig.

A bit tricky to install but after you fig it turns out pretty nice dose stick out from the mother board a but bit it's pretty nice
