Cooler Master Announces Hyper 212X and TX3i CPU Coolers

Athlonite · Feb 12, 2016

I'll just stick to my Thermolab Baram in push/pull config I know it's old as shit but works well on my OC'd FX8320 @4.2GHz it never gets over 60c

I really wouldn't say it is an awesome cooler. The mounting is garbage, performance is entry level and have I mentioned the mounting is garbage?

Yes, the mounting is annoying, and fiddly. I should reassemble the entire thing, including backplate, but I dread it.

The Silverstone Argon 01 i had was almost fun to install.

As far as I am concerned these are still the best bang for the buck coolers that have existed

I agree, I still don't know why Xigmatek isn't really available anymore.

Wow! Definitely agree on this!! It is a fantastic cooler, that I have made even better on the rig it's on by replacing the stock fan with this one that is even quieter and pushes more air (great in a black/white setup: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835214043

Feel the same about the 212 evo. I installed it and when plugging in the fan, which was in a tight spot near the top of the case, I hit the cooler with my hand. The cooler actually rotated a bit and I had to gently turn it back. It is very close to being perfectly straight and the temps are good so I left it alone.

I will try the Cryorig H7 next time, as installation looks easier and has better cooling. Anyone using an H7?
