5 out of 5 eggs Worth Every Penny 05/12/2012

This review is from: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus - CPU Cooler with 4 Direct Contact Heatpipes

Pros:

Was playing EVE online with a stock intel fan over the i7-2700k and temperatures would spike to between 70-75, With the new Hyper 212 temperatures have yet to go over 44.

Installation was fairly easy on the Intel DP67BG motherboard, mounting brackets etc were easy to attach and work with.

Cons:

This heatsink is quite large. Also if you plan on adding a second fan, or having the fan sit over the RAM, it doesn't clear the memory, I had to move the fan up a tiny bit to allow clearance for the RAM.

I am using the GSkill Ripjaw X Series, and the heat sink on the RAM prevented the fan of the CPU to match up exactly with the heat sink, moved it up just a few milometers and everything is working great!

Overall Review:

Intel i7-2700k (No over clocking)
Intel DP67BG Motherboard
16 GB DDR3 1333 Gskill Ripjaw X Series
Nvidia 560ti 1 GB DDR5
WD 1TB HDD
