Even with a single fan on, the NH-U12S Redux still performed better than the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO. Even on the stock cooler (read: crap, intel cant make a cooler that works) you should not be approaching anywhere near those temperatures. With two fans on, the NH-U12S Redux performed the same as the regular NH-U12S which only has one fan so the second fan in the Redux was able to lower the temperature by roughly two Celsius. Still quite quiet and in a closed system, even at maximum speeds, it’s likely you’ll never hear it. At idle 43dB was recorded and at 100 fan speed 47dB was recorded.
Hyper 212 evo review 2500k full#
This is on an AMD Athlon II X3 460, a 95W TDP part, conveniently, the i5-2500k is a 95W TDP, in terms of heat production under full load they should be identical.Ĭheck all of your fans are functioning immediately. Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition There was a slight increase in noise when using the RGB fan. On a Hyper 212 Evo cooler I run 45c *FULL LOAD*.
You should already be concerned.įor reference. And its doing that at idle? You have major cooling issues going on to idle at 50 celcius. They also recommend not exceeding 80c, while it shouldnt immediately fail, they do not allow warranty claims on chips that have exceeded this, they consider this running a harsh environment and do not rate the chips to run this high. Or about 195F for the point you should expect your computer to suffer catastrophic failure and die. The original Evo is 159mm tall where this one is a touch shorter at 155. This is where we will find our first change in the V2 model. It ends up coming in at 120 x 80 x 155 mm or 4.7 x 31. There was no conflict with RAM modules on our Intel motherboards, but on our AMD one the closest RAM slot was covered by the fan, though it's high enough to allow low-profile modules to be installed.Intel rates its chips for an *ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM* of 98 celcius, the literal expectation when exceeding that temperature is that some of the transistors will melt and cause a catastrophic failure, this is also core temperature not case temperature (or package temperature in some hardware monitor type applications), measured core temperatures are usually a few degrees below actual temperature too, that 98C figure is actual temp, so really a measured 90C is pushing the absolute limit. At first glance, the Hyper 212 Evo V2 looks just like past Hyper 212 designs and that isn’t a bad thing given their popularity. Attaching the fan is wonderfully simple with the bracket – there's little excuse for companies still using shoddy fan clips these days. Still, the Hyper 212X can definitely be mounted within a case. It locks into position on the cooler's baseplate, although this mechanism could be improved to be more secure. You then need to twist the universal mounting arms into the correct shape for your socket and align the pre-attached spring-loaded screws appropriately. The CNPS9500 AT that OP is looking at has been around since AM2 sockets and is showing its age. The Hyper 212+ trounces the 9500 by a full 8C at high and performs as well with fans on low. On LGA2011(-v3) sockets, the screw pillars screw directly into the socket. While not perfect, Frostytech has a review of it and the Hyper 212+, which performs similarly to the Hyper 212 Evo. The heat pipes use what Cooler Master calls Continuous Direct Contact which more or less means that they have a continuous copper base in contact with the CPU heat spreader versus a mixed copper and aluminum base featured on the Hyper 212 Plus. You first need to push the screw pillars into the universal metal backplate through the front of the motherboard, securing them at the rear with nuts. The Hyper 212 EVO utilizes four heat pipes and an aluminum fin tower cooler design.
Mounting the cooler is relatively simple.
