Not the best cooler (harsh seeing as its priced so much lower than the other but I couldnt think of anything else wrong with it!)
Cooler Master has a very well performing heatsink in the Hyper 212 Plus. With a price point of only $29.99, you get a cooler that is capable of handling a highly overclocked Core i7 920 D0 out of the box. We all know, or should by now, that current C...
Put up against some stiff competition, we saw the Coolermaster 212 Plus hold its on. Yes, it did not beat out all the coolers we put it up against, but it did do very well. Lets remeber, most of those coolers cost almost $20 more than the 212 Plus an...
Until you take a look at the base, the Hyper 212 Plus build quality is excellent. The heatsink feels sturdy and the fins are thin, yet solid and not easily bent. However, the impressive first impression quickly falls apart after a quick glance at the ...
Overall the Hyper 212 Plus did very well in our tests. Although I wanted to, my motherboard would not allow me to overclock any more than 3.0Ghz, so unfortunately I do not have any temperature results for a more extreme overclock. Either way, I am ver...
I was most impressed with the performance of this mid range heatsink compared to high end heatsinks from Cooler Master, Noctua, and Thermalright. Although it didn’t outperform any of the heatsinks we tested it against, just being close in performanc...
You know theres only so much you can say or write about heatpipe based CPU coolers these days. Really bad ones do not exist anymore. So from a decent design a manufacturer always need to move forward and improve its features and aesthetics. Cooler ...
Price, Excellent Cooling Performance, Dual fan capable out of the box, Very powerful stock fan, Backplate comes standard, Improved installation process (compared to other CM coolers)
Heatpipes are the smaller style, Relies on a 2000RPM fan for optimal performance, Questions over Fan specs, Single pressure point mount does allow twisting to happen, "Only" second best at high loads
It’s been one heck of a ride, but like all good things it has now come to its end. We hope you too walk away from this review as impressed as we are with the Cooler Master Hyper 212+. Its performance is among the best of the best while having everyt...
Lightweight, Sturdy construction, Good price, Good cooling performance, Versatile Retention Method, Ability to use a second fan...
Uneven base...
From a strict performance outlook, the Hyper 212 Plus did alright not losing by much, so its not a bad cooler. However, I feel that with what it was compared to, it could have stood up a bit better even with 3°C variance in most of the tests. Still...

In the end I am left with a better product than the original in almost every way. While the 212 Plus doesn’t have the “coolness factor” of a twin tower design, it is still a formidable competitor to the market. The results we got were pr...
Cooler Master ha demostrado con el Hyper 212 Plus que la experiencia es un grado en cualquier campo, y esto de la disipación no es una excepción. El Hyper 212 Plus es un producto redondo por varios motivos entre los que podemos destacar:Rendimiento: Su...
