    Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo (RR-212E-20PK-R2) CPU Cooler with PWM Fan, Four Direct Contact Heat Pipes

    • I replaced my old stock cooler which was super loud and compared to this one I would have to say this one is a winner when it comes to silence!
    • I've always used the stock cooler that came with my CPUs because my logic was that those coolers are designed to work with those
    • fx-8120 drop the temps by about 8-12 Celsius compared to the stock cooler
    • Using a intel core 2 quad [email protected], it cut my temps in half compared to the stock cooler!
    • Everything works great, temps in the 40's and 20's which is awesome and much better than my stock cooler but the fan makes the most horrible rattling sound, trying to find a replacement.
    • Given that even Intel doesn't seem to provide a stock cooler sufficient to cool their products when NOT overclocked these days, I've used a number of these on different computers now
    • My PC use to run idle 45c with a stock cooler but after installing this i get 29-35c great cooler and totally worth it.
    • A huge upgrade from stock cooler
    • I am impressed and convinced to never use a stock cooler again
    • I was using my stock cooler and the cpu temperature was 75 degree in games but now its not passing the 55 degree
    • This is much better than a stock cooler
    • I used this on an AMD FX-8350 and the temps are at leas 10 degrees cooler and it is silent compared to the stock cooler.
    • Better than a stock cooler and won't break the bank
    • I am glad I used this cooler instead of the stock cooler.
    • I put this on my i5-8400 after having my cpu get over 60c and close to 70c at times with the stock cooler
    • Cools my AMD 8320 much better than my stock cooler that came with the processor
    • It runs fairly quiet, unlike my stock cooler, which was really loud
    • I checked one of the forums and was told that I could be the CPU cooler, I was running the stock cooler that came with the i7 4970CPU
    • My Ryzen 1600 (which could exceed 75C with the stock cooler) stays under 50C at all times.
    • Does a better job than the stock cooler
    • , I bought this for my AMD FX-6300, which with the stock cooler would run the games I normally play at about 45-50 Celsius (120 Fahrenheit), but with this cooler applied it stays between 25 and 30
    • Will be looking for a better option, or just use the stock cooler.
    • My old i5-2500k was on a stock cooler and kept blue screening to overheating; after installing this heat sink i was not only able to save my CPU from further overheating
    • Although, only 4 stars because the title says LED but this has NO LED’s on it.
    • Brought down my CPU temp from 90°C when intense usage with stock intel cooler, to a solid 65-70°C when intense usage with this cooler
    • The CPU is idling around 50 C, while my old water cooler cpu cooler that was going out idled at around 75 C.
    • Also my old cooler Couldn’t even cool my PC when I’m watching YouTube video, it went up to 69 c but now using the cooler master hyper 212 evo the temperature while web browsing is only 34 c
    • CPU was overheating to 70+ deg C with old heatsink.
    • i-7 4790K was thermal throttling at 100c with a normal load, and idled at 70c
    • I'm using it to cool an i5-8600K
    • Brought down my CPU temp from 90°C when intense usage with stock intel cooler, to a solid 65-70°C when intense usage with this cooler
