Cooler MasterHyper 212 Spectrum V3 ARGB CPU Air Cooler, 120mm PWM Fan, 4 Copper Heat Pipes, 152mm Tall, AMD Ryzen AM5/AM4, Intel LGA 1851/1700/1200 Brackets

I had an aging, 13 year old liquid cooler that was keeping my i7 9700F at 80C during gaming sessions. I figured it was time for an upgrade anyway so I bought an i5 14400F at a low price and then this Cooler Master Hyper 212 Spectrum V3. My i5 stays around 67C during gaming and the overall PC noise is quiet (which after 30 years of PC gaming... ugh... I want quiet!)I like it a lot and think the quality and price are excellent. Thank you!

This fan was selected for use in my new desktop computer, and my experience with it thus far has been positive. It looks good, with attractive color accents that enhance the overall appearance of my new desktop. Beyond aesthetics, the fan exhibits a robust and sturdy construction, instilling confidence in its long-term durability. Most importantly, it performs well, and moves a lot of air, which is crucial for maintaining optimal system performance.The fan's sturdy build is a notable advantage, suggesting resilience and longevity. Additionally, the appealing color scheme adds a welcome visual element to the computer's internal components. Its capacity to move a substantial amount of air is a critical pro, ensuring efficient cooling and contributing to the overall stability and performance of the system.At this time, no drawbacks have been identified.In conclusion, this fan proves to be a solid choice for a computer build, offering a combination of effective cooling performance, durable construction, and pleasing visual design. Its ability to move a significant volume of air, coupled with its sturdiness and attractive colors, makes it an excellent choice.

Excellent product for the $30 price! It reduced my max temps from right around 100 C to about 75 C. Idling temps dropped by about 10 C. I had been using the stock AMD fan/heatsink. This fan/heatsink is big though, so make sure it will fit in your case. It comes with both parts for Intel or AMD processors. Fairly easy install, though the mounting brackets for holding on the fan to the heatsink are a bit frustrating. Comes with thermal paste as well.

I have used this family in many desktops over the years. The CPU packages may vary, but this CPU cooler always works well and is adaptable. In this case I used it for a LGA1700 CPU. It is important to keep the CPU cool to insure no overheating even under gaming loads. These CPU coolers usually keep the CPU at 20C (84F). A low temperature makes the CPU operate for long life and avoids CPU slowdown or shutdown under extreme loading. Most of my CPU's have operated reliable for 10-15 years without issues and are still running cool. The design performance rivals most competitors. Easy to install and will support one or two cooling fans if desired. I highly recommend this brand and will continue to use in future designs. Stay Cool and be happy.

Really easy to install (even if you're a beginner with tinkering with your PC). Just find a good video and make sure you have a backplate if your socket is AM4 (does NOT come with an am4 backplate, it uses what comes with your motherboard. If for some reason you don't have one you will have to buy one).Fan clips are really, really annoying. And they feel cheap. But they do the job fine.Cools quite well! I replaced my old failed nzxt krakenM22 AIO. Fans are very quiet, perfect if you dont have a top of the line CPU. My temps dropped 40-50c (my old cooler wasnt doing its job). Comes with its own paste in box which works well enough.It comes compatible with AM4 and AM5 sockets out of the box, and if you have an intel based socket it comes with its own bracket for attachment.Honestly, it's a lot cheaper than an AIO cooler, and it does its job quite well for the pricepoint. I can't complain much.

The Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black CPU Air Cooler is not merely a cooling device—it’s a monument to engineering excess and aesthetic restraint. Standing tall with its black aluminum top cover, it whispers, “Yes, I cool things, but I also do it in style.”The SickleFlow 120 Edge PWM fan isn’t just a fan; it’s a turbine of serenity, spinning in near silence while blasting heat into oblivion. The 4 copper heat pipes work overtime, as if they’re personally offended by thermal inefficiency. Together, they form a heat-destroying squad that would make a supervillain’s lair feel downright chilly.Installing this monolith requires some spatial awareness (and possibly a small sacrifice to the PC gods), but once seated, it commands respect. My CPU now operates at arctic temperatures, blissfully unaware of the fiery chaos outside.If your PC deserves a cooler that’s equal parts performance and dramatic flair, the Hyper 212 Black is your thermal savior. Warning: prolonged admiration of its craftsmanship may delay booting your system.

It can handle R5 5600X very well and the RGB is bright and colorfull. Function as expected and the installationg is easy aslong as you follow the instructions.
