On the front side you then screw on the spacers and can let go of the backplate.
Four small threads are fixed in the backplate with plastic clips and pushed through the mainboard from behind. Besides the not-so-optional tube of thermal paste, there’s also a small RGB controller included, which can control the color play of the SF120R RGB fan via buttons or the reset button.Īlthough Cooler Master manufactures the Wraith coolers that come with Ryzen CPUs and thus should have some experience with mounting them on the AM4 backplate, they also rely on their own backplate for the coolers under their own name. I’ll get to the various screws, spacers and nuts later, the completely optional (and mostly unnecessary) accessories stand out: Y-PWM splitter and frame for a second, non-existent 120mm fan. Unfortunately, this has been bagged again, here would have been potential to save plastic waste.įor a relatively small and inexpensive cooler, the Hyper 212 Black Edition comes with a lot of accessories and small parts.
Included accessories come in a small cardboard box that opens. Inside the compact box there is an unusual type of transport protection in the form of a plastic casing. The illustration also adheres to the unofficial industry standard with a large product picture on the front, feature brief description on the back, and a table of specifications and a few pictures on the side. Front, back, lid as well as bottom are in black, the sides then in purple. The exteriors have definitely already arrived in the modern era and the typical design for Cooler Master. Whether the tradition of a good standard recommendation can be maintained or whether you should break new ground, you will find out in the following article. In order to meet the modern demands (namely optics and RGB), Cooler Master has added a fresh version with the two Black Editions a while ago.Īt the request of the community, the latest addition now has to prove itself in a test. And even though the dusty Evo variant is soon approaching its 10-year anniversary and still actively sold, the roots of this cooler series even go back to 2007.
The name Hyper 212 should ring a bell with many, especially enthusiasts from the Sandy Bridge era.
