Great CPU Cooler
Pros: * Solid Construction, Doesn't move around * Fits perfectly onto the Antec P180 Mini * E8500 Idles at 37c with no fans so its dead silent
Cons: * Fins are sharp * Mobo has to be removed for installation * Very tight fit * Price

It works
Pros: It works perfect compared to the stock cooler i had. I have a not so good e4500 cpu but I overclocked it from 2.2 to 3.3 and it idles 34 and loads in the 40s never higher.
Cons: Not so much a con but its a bigg cooler, consider the size before buying. I got lucky, it barely fits next to my northbridge heatsink and my psu. And the fan sits right above my ram sticks.
Other Thoughts: I would consider this to anyone. And it adds a nice touch to your computer when viewing inside.

Pros: Very nice cooler. Especially if you put on two fans. I used this for 940 and 955 and I like that the mounting is by screw which gives tight fit on the cpu. I also like its size and design. Gives some style inside the case.
Cons: I do not like the design of the backplate for mounting am2,am3 cpu. It has this fins on four side and each of them get in the way of the screws and the socket while tightening. Somewhat annoying. Does not come with two fans.
Other Thoughts: 955 OCed to 3.7 @ 1.38v. Idles @ 38c Loads (while stress test) @ 55c

Amazing Cooler
Pros: Runs E7200 @ stock 24/7 with no complaints and no fans. Can OC with it passive as well, however my chip stinks so it was not very stable (was not a temperature problem). Idles 36 loads about 40
Cons: No i7 mount?
Other Thoughts: Get it NOW

Huge, but that's what I wanted
Pros: The most cooling area of any CPU Sink I could find. If you have a single or dual-core, you could probably get away without mounting the fan if your case gives good enough air flow. This is cooling my Opteron 170 (ancient tech nowadays) with an 800 rpm fan, and temps never hit 45C.
Cons: Wasn't happy with the noise from the fan it came with, so attached an 800 RPM scythe to it instead, and now it's truly dead quiet. But I specifically built my Computer to be a dead quiet PC, so I'm overly picky.
Other Thoughts: The cooling ability of any system is as simple as the heat exchange area of the cooler. Water cooling gets better temps only if your radiator has more area than the alternative. But this sucker has more heat exchanging surface area than most WC systems, so there's no need for water if you use this instead. And as a side note, this monster barely fits inside the padded walls of my case. If you have a Cooler Master Sileo 500 Case this fits perfectly, without a mm to spare actually.

Great Cooler
Pros: Great cooler. Only came with one fan. Will have alot of extra parts.
Cons: Huge is not a Con but it almost touches the side of antec 1200 case. Need to analyze the assembly instructions for all components before assembling. At first they look like they suck but they accually dont just written in 4 different languages. The pictures on newegg make you believe you are getting two fans with it. You do not!! But you do have the brackets for another one.
Other Thoughts: The screws for the back of the motherboard by the way are reversed thread. The only reason I know this is because I read up on it here on newegg before buying it. The instructions dont say.

Excellent
Pros: Excellent cpu cooling system with and without the fan included in this kit. Running a q9400 oc'd to 3.0ghz in a HAF 932 case idle temps are 26-30c, load 30-36c (Crysis Warhead max settings). Those temps are excellent. I'm very pleased with its build quality, high end. Excellent, excellent, just what i needed to get the job done right.
Cons: Size - not really a con so much as a, "doh! didn't think i'd need a memory cooler, ...guess i have to put the fan somewhere else."
Just be mindful of the size and future upgrades, thats all.
Other Thoughts: Wonderful product, i'm always happy with Cooler Master. Buy this cooler!

awesome!
Pros: Awesome idle temps on my 3.9 ghz oc'ed q9550. Core 1 idles at 44c while the rest only idle at 33c.
Doesn't move around after it has been seated unlike its competitors...
I was going to lap it but it was already flat! First HSF I have never had to lap to get outstanding temps! Great job coolermaster have loved your products... Don't change a thing :)
google search should tell you this is only 1-2 degrees behind the true in performance... So IDK what the hype about the TRUE is... The HYPER is just as good, but cheaper!!!1
High quality... This thing just feels sturdy, but not so heavy as to snap PCB's.
Cons: Big. I couldnt get the push pull I wanted with 2 fans in a A**** 1200 as it would ram into the 2 back fans on the 1200.
Other Thoughts: Get this beaut, you won't be sorry.

BEST CPU COOLER I HAVE EVER OWNED
Pros: The COOLER MASTER Hyper Z600 is an outstanding product. Incredibly, this cooler combined with my COOLER MASTER HAF 932 case is able to keep my QX9770 at 28 C idle and 40 C under Prime95 load. The cooler's impressive performance is further complimented by the fact that the cooler offers nearly silent operation.
Cons: NONE

COOLER MASTER Hyper Z600
Pros: Fairly large, six heat pipes, copper base, and aluminum fins make this a well constructed CPU cooler. Comes with a 120mm fan, you can put another.
Cons: Overpriced, you can get better for cheaper.
Other Thoughts: Does not fit in most mid tower cases.

COOLER MASTER Hyper Z600 RR-600-LBU1-GP CPU Cooler
Pros: I've never had a CPU Cooler do like this one says it can do but i can do it. I'm useing, in the past, a ZALMAN CNPS 9700 NT 110mm, & here it is. The Zalman is 130c Higher then this at Max 100c. Now at 100c I have plenty enough room to move around in wihhout a fear of overheating our CPS! We have a AMD AMD Phenom 9850 BLACK EDITION 2.5GHz 4 x 512KB L2 Cache 2MB L3 Cache Socket AM2+ 125W Quad-Core Processor & this is the coolest thing thats happened to me. In my mind, Z----- can't compare. So if your in the same boots, you should buy this product!!
Cons: This Cooler at ( No Additional Fans Still Works ) So Hear Me!

Monster of a cooler
Pros: At first, I was like "WoW!" Then I was like "This is crazy!" Finally, I was like "Duuude!" This thing is pretty large. My midsize coolermaster cm690 accomodates this pretty well. Lucky for me, the side panel has two openings for a 120mm fan. So loosing one in order to fit this cooler was okay. It's big size kinda fools you, but rest assure, this thing is not heavy at all. The fan is a bit loud, but not too loud. I can't really compare this to my Intel C2D stock cooler cuz I never even used the stock cooler. But I would imagine this is 10x better.
Cons: The mounting of this thing was kinda of confusing. There is an "X" shaped bracket that is supposed to support the cooler from the back of the motherboard. But I couldn't seem to get the screws far enough inside the hole in order to screw them threw that "X" bracket. So I just ended up not using it. I didn't deduct any eggs cuz I don't feel it causes this product to function any less.
Other Thoughts: Building computers for a hobby is addicting, expensive, and often leads to the growth of grey hairs. Is it worth it? That depends. You have to ask yourself how far and long are you willing to go for the perfect rig? Is your computer for show? Is it for "kick you in the nutts" gaming? Or both? And if you're still reading this review and not adding this product to your shopping cart, you must be really lonely and needing something to do cuz you're still reading this. Stop reading this. STOP!

HUGE BUT AWESOME!!!
Pros: MASSIVE does great on keeping cpu cool!! Expecially if you add another fan in it!!
Cons: None!! Well it is HUGE!! I Was forced to edit my computer!! I have an coolmaster case that have thisplastic fan grid thing in it. It holds up to 4 fans!! I had to rip the plastic out in the middle of the fans to even use beast!! Also i had to take out the 2 top fans hehe!! But either way it great!! Just make sure you can support that i will say if you have a small case it not a good idea to go with this one!!!
Other Thoughts: The install plans suck but i Got it!!! ^_^

Pritty Impressive
Pros: Well within budget, got it for $40. Cools like no other i have used, and i've used coolers that cost $80+ on sale. added an antec fan and temps drop even further.
Cons: HUGE! I had to take out the side fan and put it outside. I got a bad cut from it. Took me about three hours to install, im kinda slow. Thermal paste that it ships with is useless to me (low quality).
Other Thoughts: The perfect cooler for an i7. However, if this is out of your budget, take a look at the coolermaster hyper n520, that thing cools almost as good as this for a decent amount less.

Looks good and works GREAT but it IS big.
Pros: Works like a charm. Even with CPU benchmarking tools running on my AMD Phenom II x4 940 and tasking the CPU to the max the temp never went over 35C and it idles at about 31C. I was a bit concerned that it would interfere with the heatsinks on the Corsair Dominator RAM I put in my Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3 motherboard. The RAM is close to the CPU socket on that motherboard than it was on the ones in the pictures on CoolerMaster's site. I new it was going to cover the first two RAM slots and I was concerned that the wider fins (which do start part way up to allow for RAM) may not allow enough room to account for the large heatsinks on the Dominator RAM. It cleared it fine however I needed to situate the fan on the opposite side of the CPU blowing out rather than over the RAM blowing in. Not ideal but it works fine. Of course I have 6 other 120mm fans directing a ton of air through this case as well. and Yes I know that's overkill as well, and I like it. ;-)
Cons: While I honestly believe that if it fit over the RAM in my setup it should fit any motherboard and RAM combo it is also very tall and if you do not have a full height (width for towers) case then it may not fit. Break out the ruler before ordering.
Other Thoughts: Did I mention it looks impressive? It's just massive but when it comes to cooling that huge amount of cumulative surface area counts a lot.

Pros: extremely good cooling. keeps my cpu running cool no matter what i through at it. it does sit high enough off the cpu to use ram with tall heat sinks
Cons: its big so make sure you have a big enough case to fit it. its not so much the width and length that makes it hard to fit, its the height.
Other Thoughts: im running a amd phenominon 2 2.8ghz, and it keeps it at 27-29c on idle and light load. the highest it got was 35c and that was wile rendering a movie. once it was finished the temp instantly dropped back down to 28c.

AWESOME COOLER
Pros: Cooler is amazing. I have run my 940 Black Edition at several levels of OC (up to 3.5ghz) without a hitch.
Cons: not really a con, but it's HUGE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Make sure you have a case big enough for it. I mean it.

Amazing
Pros: Can't say much about it but how amazing the temps are its like I'm water cooling. ...... But not, lol.
Bolt mounted, a ton better than push pin.
Cons: A bit big, but that's kinda what we are going for right.

Wow
Pros: Works as advertised can be used either passive (with no fan) or active with a fan. Great Product, I highly recommend!!!!
Cons: Not really a con but do the math. This thing is Gi-Normous!!
Other Thoughts: I run a 9950 on an Asus M3A32-Deluxe motherboard steadily at 3120 GHZ... Under Extremely heave loads the temperatures are at 51 to 55 degrees celcius. Try that with another cooler

Exelent Cooling
Pros: -keeps my Core2quad q9450 at 20C idle and rearely gets above 30C even under full load -uses a screw and bolt mount system rather than those stupid plastic clips so many 775 coolers use
Cons: -BIG Just bearly fit in my case (makesure you have clearence between the top of your motherboard and your PSU (ot case top If bottom mounted PSU) -Included fan isn't all that good (sleve bearing, non PWM) But It is easily replaced with the 120mm fan of your choice (I used an Artic Cooling ACF 12 PWM)
Other Thoughts: The cons are really minor weeknesses and the first one (it's large size) is likely why it works so well. Overall it is an exelent cooler especially if you replace the stock fan.
My only warning is the fact thea that the fins are very sharp and will slice your hands like razor blades If you are not careful when installing it

It is the master!
Pros: I have a QX6850 and with a zalman 9700led my resting temps were around 38-40C now with this temps are 28-30C that a 10 degree drop. I did switch the stock fan that comes with it to a antec 3 speed and its attached facing my northbridge sucking air inward. Weird but it worked the best.
Cons: It is big I had to shove it in an antec 900

Great Cooler!!
Pros: this cooler is great and its not as big as people discribe it... i mean of course its bigger than stock heatsink but thats why it works so well
Cons: none at all
Other Thoughts: installation is a bit easy but a time consuming bc of having to remove the motherboard but other than that its a breeze, it fits perfectly on my 780g and in no way gets on the way of the ram even though its right next to processor, newegg does not say info on the fan but its 120mm, 90.0 cfm!! it keeps both my phenom and my 4850 at 38c under load

Does its job
Pros: Cool looks. Massive cooling capabilities. I don't even use the included fan and it keeps my CPU at 45C under my normal operating load.
Cons: None in my eyes.
Other Thoughts: The size of the heat sink in my eyes is not a con. I have my audio workstation computer in my control room so I needed my computer to run fanless to reduce as much noise as possible. This thing does the trick. In my opinion the heat sink isn't too big, your case is just too small.

It's great
Pros: It's a great cooler. Sure, you've got to bolt it to your mainboard, but it's so big, you're more comfortable doing that anyways. It's big, so make sure you can fit it in your case. I run them fanless, and they do just fine.
Cons: It's big. Makes some plugs hard to get to as well as some MB screws, but it's worth it in the long run.

It's a beast!
Pros: This thing kept my new Xeon X3370 at or below 46°C while running benchmarks overclocked from 3.0GHz to 4.05GHz, and isn't even very loud. Intel says the chip is rated up to 71.4°, so I think I'm safe...
Cons: As I said, it's a beast. It's huge! It occupies just about every bit of space available, leaving about 1/4" to my power supply and about 1/8" to the case door. With the fan on the upstream side ('cause I already had a case fan on the downstream position) I have to unclip the fan to get at the memory, but it goes on and off easily.
Other Thoughts: If you want to stay cool while OC'd, this thing will take care of you.

WOW
Pros: Before I had the stock cooling on my Intel Core 2 Duo Q9450 and its temperatures reached 55 C. Now, after overclocking it from 2.66 GHz to 3.44 GHz and the highest temp I've seen is 35 C while benchmarking it. Once the CPU has no load, the temp drops to 24 C immediatly. I am confident that I will be using this to cool my CPU's for 10 more years.
Cons: Installing was a bit difficult. The motherboard must be removed if you want to remove the heatsink. Like someone else, I also cut myself somehow on the heatsink as I was removing the fan, and, like he said, it bled a lot! When I first read his review, I didn't think I would do the same thing. hehe. Also, the size is a bit of an issue. I wanted to install a fan on the side above the RAM and on the other side, but my RAM heatsinks are too tall and my case fan is too thick to allow them to fit. Also, there isn't enough space between my PSU and heatsink to place a fan there, so I have my only fan on the bottom above my GPU.
Other Thoughts: The size of this thing is worth it. I can push my system as hard as I can and overclock it without worrying about heat.
Make sure your case is big enough for the heatsink. I have the Thermaltake Xaser VI and it fits nicely, but it comes close.

Awesomeness in a box part II
Pros: One last thing to note, in my last review, the noise is no where near as loud as my posted video depicts, that is just simply my camera having a really oversensitive microphone, overall my system with it's 4 120's and the 120 on the cooler plus the gpu as quieter than my XBOX360 when the system is at full load and the 360 is simply at idle. Very quiet fan on the cooler helps with this alot!
Cons: only the ones I previously mentioned
Other Thoughts: Like I said, very quiet for a 2500+ rpm fan, and as you saw in the video, awesome friction powered led's.

Awesomeness in a box
Pros: -Awesome Cooling, -120mm Fan uses friction activated LED's and is Even quieter than my case 120's -Clear install instructions for the most part and excelent packaging and documentation. -is HUGE! (a pro) -made out of very durrable materials -comes with it's own Thermal paist if you don't have any of your own. - Amazing cooling, stock cooler kept my Q6600 at 56 C + where as this thing keeps everything below 45C on average (and that is when it is hot in my room, everything drops below 40 if I turn on my ac) - not that much larger than the Tuniq Tower, so statements that the size is "Silly" are not very technically founded, it's this size for a reason, to disperse heat, and it does that very well. Fans CAN be mounted on all four sides, depending on where you want to push your air, and you can have up to two fans installed at once. -Pretty easy to install if you pay attention to the instructions. (and incase some of you arent big on reading, do NOT remove the insulation tape)
Cons: -SHARP I lost my grip on this thing and got 3 of it's blades across my knuckles, the first time I have EVER been cut when installing something computer related (not likely to happen again either) n be ready, cuts from this thing BLEED like crazy. -Documentation doesn't state that the mounting double screws have to be twisted in Counter Clockwise (lefty loosy) rather than Clockwise (righty tighty) now this makes sense since your using knuts on the other side, so as your tightening them, the mounting bults get tighter at the same time, just would have been nice for a heads up. - If you decide to mount horizontaly the Fan sits over the ram. (in this case the Tuniq might be better since the fan is in the middle.) so I hope you don't have any reavernormous heatsinks on them cause the first two slots (1,2) are covered. 3 cons, thats all, I think the pros this thing offers greatly outwieghs the cons anyway, I am definately keeping this thing! (fits in my mid tower just fine) CM-690
Other Thoughts: Wonderfully designed with alot of thought put into the packaging and making sure everything is kept in perfect condition. Packaging is solid and looks very High end (since this Cooler IS pretty High end) I gotta say other than the fan mounting, this is probably THE BEST cooling solution short of liquid cooling, I would say the only thing equal would be the Tuniq tower with it's interior slot for a 120 mm fan. will NOT fit in a micro atx case (obviously) Fits in most Mid ATX cases (my CM690 included) and Will most certainly fit without any problems in full size cases.

Silly
Pros: I love Newegg.
Cons: The epitome of overzealous and wasteful design. I purchased Asus’ new M3A79-T Deluxe motherboard and was unsure of an appropriate CPU cooler for AM2+ motherboards. Thus, I hastily purchased the Hyper Z600. I literally laughed and shook my head while I put it back in its box. The Z600 is about the size of a 7-11 Super Big Gulp container and is packaged in a box that could hold a car alternator. The fact of the matter is its size is completely inappropriate for its stated purpose. In sum, there is no design or performance justification to have such an overdesigned device. Cooler Master needs to cut the Z600 in half (height) and change the name to Z300. http://www.coolermaster.com/uploads/product/products_gallery/file1209994783858.jpg

Caution needed
Pros: None really.
Cons: Not all I thought it would be? See Other thoughts.
Other Thoughts: This thing is absolutely HUGE, I use a Cosmos S RC1100 and this thing fits but you have to remove the side panel fan to close the case. On motherboards it can make it near impossible to plug in some components or screw in some screws. You cannot face it the optimal way depending on your ram and thus you need to face it vertically. Did I mention it is huge? My case is a massive full tower at that and this is just too much. Idle my cpu temp was 41 and 55 while gaming. I days later ordered an artic freezer 7 and with my Q6600 O.Cd to 3gig it only hits 47c while gaming.

I love this heatsink!!!
Pros: This heatsink is very very good in my opinion. This has kept the temperatures low even with my E8500 wolfdale overclocked to 3.8.
Cons: Heatsink is very large. if you have memory with large heatsinks or a northbridge with a large heatsink, the fans might not fit on those two sides of the Z600.
Other Thoughts: Next best thing to water cooling. Looks very good in case. I currently have one fan attached to this, but it works great without any.

Nice and Cool
Pros: Great heat sink, and love not having to run a fan. Keeps temp way down, below 40, with standard PC tasks.
Cons: It's quite large. If you don't have a full tower you may be pressed for fitting it within your case.
Other Thoughts: None

COOLER MASTER Hyper Z600
Pros: passive cooler, performing very well under load temps! looks big and heavy but is actually lighter than it looks, optional 120mm fans.
Cons: Does not come with Cooler Master 120mm's (R4-L2S-122B-GP) fans
Other Thoughts: Get the fans (R4-L2S-122B-GP) looks very cool and is the best performane you can ever hope for!

Amazing air cooling
Pros: Amazing performance for an air cooler. Have an OC'ed q6600 and runs like a dream. Even in extreme circumstances my system does not overheat. Gamed 12 hours in a hot stuffy garage during the summer and had no hiccups or crashes. Best part of this unit is the fan, it is whisper quiet. Coolermaster needs to sell these fans separate.
Cons: Not so much a con, but just be aware that these types of coolers are large. You may have trouble depending on your mobo. I had a poorly places capacitor on my board, i had to file out a small notch for the mounting bracket to go around it. Not a slight on this cooler, i think i would have had the same problem with any 3rd party large cooler.
Other Thoughts: Get one now, you wont be disappointed.

Excellent Cooler for the Price
Pros: Options galor (passive or fan assisted cooling). Keeps my temps low on my AMD Phenom 9950. Heavy, but solid. Didn't interfere with my Ram at all. Priced cheaper than the Zalman that I was originally using.
Cons: Should have come out sooner (is that a con???)
Other Thoughts: You can't go wrong with this or any other cooler from Cooler Master. This is a quality product at a fair price.

Sweet Cooler...worth the money
Pros: This is a great cooler for the money spent. It may be a bit big, but worth the price if you want to keep your CPU cool. I am running the 9750 and with the 120mm fan on there ny temps are running around 31-32 C. I was able to push it to 4.1G and had Zero problems. Great job
Cons: Just a bit big, and heavy, however with the back plate that Cooler Master supplies there is no need for concern.
Other Thoughts: If your into hard core gaming, over clocking, or extreme system use, this is the cooler for you.
