With its older heatsink design and slower spinning fan, the only real reason you'd opt for this cooler over the identically priced and better performing Hyper 212X is for the red LEDs in the fan. If you're running an overclocked processor, however, it's h...
Easy to install, LED fan is funky, Extra fan clips are included for push/pull, Excellent stockspeed performance, Very quiet
The Arctic Freezer i32 would be a better option if you want to overclock your CPU
Coming in as a successor to the legendary Hyper 212 EVO, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED certainly has big boots to fill.Things get off to a very good start, though, as Cooler Master have tweaked the mounting mechanism – it is now much simpler. I remember...

None, “When it comes to affordable, reliable and trusted cooling solutions, the 212 series has long been at the top of many peoples list. The 212 LED may not innovate, but it manages to keep one of the most popular coolers ever made relevant and a great c
PricingThe Cooler Master 212 range has always been excellent value for money and the 212 LED is no exception, clocking in at just £31, only a smidge higher than the 212X which is still £30, and a bit more than the older 2012 model, the 212 EVo, which is d...
Fantastic performance to price ratio, Hyper 212 LED represents amazing value for money, Suitable for cases with enough clearance of up to 160mm tall, Does have additional brackets included to allow for push/pull configurations
Mounting system could be a little less “fiddly”
One thing about the Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED CPU cooler is that it doesn't leave a massive dent on your wallet. At £32.99 at Scan.co.uk, it's easily available and much better than the traditional Intel stock cooler supplied with retail chips. With good...
Abstract: When putting together a computer, the CPU is one of the most important parts to consider. Think of it as the brain of the system if you will. Hell, it's usually the most important part, with everything else centring on it, and the other components perform...
Typically, large CPU coolers provide a greater surface area for more effective cooling and allow the use of bigger, quieter fans. However, the Hyper 212 failed to cope with our overvolted quad-core CPU as well as the Intel reference cooler. Granted, th...
Retailing at RM 179, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED Turbo doesn't disappoint. I like the cover and it comes with 2 units of XtraFlo fans that are silent. Great stuff from Cooler Master! goldfries rated this product...
Althought it was quite a hassel to setup, screws, nuts, washers, bolts, youve gotta do them all. Not to mention removal of the socket. But if you pay close attention to the instruction manual I believe its a simple procedure. Also do note that althou...

Avec cette révision « full black » de l'Hyper 212, Cooler Master améliore le look et la finition d'un de ses ventirads vedettes. Le pari est remporté avec un résultat convainquant et de qualité. Que nous parlions de finition nickelée, d'une couleur noire...
