Good price-to-performance ratio, Simple installation, Improvement over previous Hyper 212 coolers,
Underperforms compared to similar Cooler Master products
Priced slightly above the RGB version, the Hyper 212 Black Edition with a Silencio fan appeals to low-noise builds while not fully living up to that moniker. High-wattage CPUs and/or extreme overclocking will likely push this cooler beyond its cooling lim...
RGB lighting looks great, Lighting is easy to configure with in-line remote, Very easy to install, Arrives with brackets and fan splitter to add a second fan, Good price, Quiet cooling
Going into this review, we had some expectations in mind, having already reviewed an almost identical model, and if it wasn't for the difference in the fans blade arrangements, we most likely would've bundled this in with the other review, however, we wen...
Quiet performance, Bargain price, Looks awesome installed, Easy to install, All the extras you need to add a second fan
Nickel plating peeled off the base
Searching for a CPU cooler around the £30 mark will find you hundreds of options, most of which will likely look similar to the Hyper 212 but may not perform any better than the stock cooler that came with the CPU. However, that's firmly not the case with...

One of the best entry-level coolers out there, Sleek and surprisingly compact design, Excellent performance figures, Packed with features all designed to keep your CPU cool, More than suitable for moderate overclocking, Exceptionally quiet performance, Ea
None, Neutral, None, Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition CPU Cooler Review,
PriceCooler Master has informed us that the Hyper 212 Black Edition will retail for a price in the region of £29.99. With the product only releasing last week, we have not yet been able to confirm this, however, such a figure is very consistent with the p...

With its older heatsink design and slower spinning fan, the only real reason you'd opt for this cooler over the identically priced and better performing Hyper 212X is for the red LEDs in the fan. If you're running an overclocked processor, however, it's h...
Easy to install, LED fan is funky, Extra fan clips are included for push/pull, Excellent stockspeed performance, Very quiet
The Arctic Freezer i32 would be a better option if you want to overclock your CPU
Coming in as a successor to the legendary Hyper 212 EVO, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED certainly has big boots to fill.Things get off to a very good start, though, as Cooler Master have tweaked the mounting mechanism – it is now much simpler. I remember...

Reliable performance, Quiet fan, Well-proven design and capabilities, Excellent price, LED fan, Easy to install,
None, “When it comes to affordable, reliable and trusted cooling solutions, the 212 series has long been at the top of many peoples list. The 212 LED may not innovate, but it manages to keep one of the most popular coolers ever made relevant and a great c
PricingThe Cooler Master 212 range has always been excellent value for money and the 212 LED is no exception, clocking in at just £31, only a smidge higher than the 212X which is still £30, and a bit more than the older 2012 model, the 212 EVo, which is d...
Fantastic performance to price ratio, Hyper 212 LED represents amazing value for money, Suitable for cases with enough clearance of up to 160mm tall, Does have additional brackets included to allow for push/pull configurations
Mounting system could be a little less “fiddly”
One thing about the Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED CPU cooler is that it doesn't leave a massive dent on your wallet. At £32.99 at Scan.co.uk, it's easily available and much better than the traditional Intel stock cooler supplied with retail chips. With good...
Abstract: When putting together a computer, the CPU is one of the most important parts to consider. Think of it as the brain of the system if you will. Hell, it's usually the most important part, with everything else centring on it, and the other components perform...
