Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition - $34.96, Amazon.comIt feels appropriate that baseball season is right around the corner because Cooler Master has hit it out of the park with the Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition. It is currently selling for just $35...

Priced slightly above the RGB version, the Hyper 212 Black Edition with a Silencio fan appeals to low-noise builds while not fully living up to that moniker. High-wattage CPUs and/or extreme overclocking will likely push this cooler beyond its cooling lim...
Cooler Master has topped my charts again in both looks and performance with their new CPU cooler, the Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition. I was able to achieve a 4.7GHz on my toasty 8700K and still stay under 90c during the Prime95 test. This is a feat that no o...

With what I have found, the hyper 212 is an excellent addition to the air cooling market. Xigmatek is considered one of the best on the market, and to only loose out by one degree is quite admirable. Looks like Cooler Master is on to something with sp...

No backplate for motherboard, Might hit case, depending on the case
The Cooler Master Hyper 212 CPU Cooler is a powerful cooler. It was the best CPU cooler that weve tested with this setup. Even without the second fan it still performed better. I think it has to do mainly with the two heatsink design with four heatpi...
