Works, But...
03/15/2013
This review is from: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU Cooler, 4 CDC Heatpipes, 120mm PWM Fan, Aluminum Fins for AMD Ryzen/Intel LGA1200/1151
Pros:
It works. I actually think the processor doesn't get too hot, since I've touched the heat sink and it's never felt warm except at the very bottom.
Cons:
Manual has nothing about how to adjust the screws at the ends of the mounting bracket. Might be obvious to someone who's worked with these things before, but since I hadn't, I didn't know how to adjust it (the board I was working with was a DX79TO, and the default position for the screws was for something smaller, I guess).
Also, it's too wide. So in a DX79TO, it can only fit in one direction (horizontally), and it's blocking two of the RAM slots in this way. True, Intel is as much to blame for putting parts in the way of a vertical mount.
But what's really irksome is after four and a half months, I still haven't received my rebate. I filled out the form, cut out the box's UPC and serial number, sent it in... and I still haven't gotten a rebate. All the other rebates I sent in between Thanksgiving and Christmas have arrived by now, but not the one for this product.
Overall Review:
I wish it wasn't so wide, so it wouldn't be blocking my RAM slots or hitting on stuff if I tried to turn it vertically.
But I really wish I'd gotten the rebate I was supposed to receive.
