We've seen a good few number of Cooler Master's products over the course of time here at OC3D, and they've never failed to deliver in any category that we've seen yet. And neither of these coolers can be accused of breaking this streak. They are bot...
We didnt find any of the initial LGA1156 HSFs particularly great for cooling our heavily overclocked and overvolted Lynnfield CPU, though we didnt see any fail to keep the CPU within its thermal tolerance either. However, possibly the most annoying a...
Abstract: In this review Frostytech will be testing Coolermasters Hyper 212 Plus tower heatsink - an exposed heatpipe base cooler that comes ready out of the box for socket 1156 Intel Lynnfield P55 motherboards. Naturally, it supports Intel socket 775/1366/1...

Mounting is way to complicated.
The Hyper 212+ CPU cooler performed quite well. Not staggering performance like we have seen with other CPU cooler offerings, but the other offerings run in the 60USD range versus this CPU cooler having a price point of around 30 USD. This CPU cooler ...

Motherboard removal required for installation
Cooler Master makes a good show. The Hyper 212 Plus Cooler does a great job with a single cooling fan attached or going all out with two. With the single though, we liked the tower set up and the relative silence of its operation. Build quality was the...
Cooler Master has a very well performing heatsink in the Hyper 212 Plus. With a price point of only $29.99, you get a cooler that is capable of handling a highly overclocked Core i7 920 D0 out of the box. We all know, or should by now, that current C...
Put up against some stiff competition, we saw the Coolermaster 212 Plus hold its on. Yes, it did not beat out all the coolers we put it up against, but it did do very well. Lets remeber, most of those coolers cost almost $20 more than the 212 Plus an...
Until you take a look at the base, the Hyper 212 Plus build quality is excellent. The heatsink feels sturdy and the fins are thin, yet solid and not easily bent. However, the impressive first impression quickly falls apart after a quick glance at the ...
Overall the Hyper 212 Plus did very well in our tests. Although I wanted to, my motherboard would not allow me to overclock any more than 3.0Ghz, so unfortunately I do not have any temperature results for a more extreme overclock. Either way, I am ver...
I was most impressed with the performance of this mid range heatsink compared to high end heatsinks from Cooler Master, Noctua, and Thermalright. Although it didn’t outperform any of the heatsinks we tested it against, just being close in performanc...
