i bought 212+ for the 1156 compability. nice cooler.
my my comp idle at almost at ambient temp.

what i dun like is the mounting socket only. way too flimsy.

Hyper 212+ really does perform well.
The only drawback of this heatsink is that it's uglier compared to it's predecessor.

wow thanks guys for the brilliant feedbacks... I was almost to buy RS S1283... Now i'm gonna reconsider 212+

Added on November 2, 2009, 12:33 amjust bought Hyper 212+ with Tuniq tx-3...
Previously idle temp with Intel stock heatsink was 50+ Celsius
Now idle temp is 30+ Celcius... Superb!
Gonna OC my E6300 for sure! Thanks guys for the great feedback...

Wow thats a good temp drop there....
From what i like the Hyper 212+ is that the bracket is very secure and tight.

Indeed it is very secure and tight... 600g not to afraid

And also fits almost all types of nowadays processor socket.
See the result so nice there, decide to take a test on i7 920 rig.

maybe i should choose this instead of the TRUE 120 extreme!
whats the TIM bundled anyway?

Just its own one quite good already, better than the ordinary white TIM.

hi, i just got myself a 212+

i was wondering since there is ntg mention in the manual abt the orientation. which is the correct way to mount it on an i5? horizontally or vertically?

Thank god i bump into this thread, was thinking of getting CM hyper n520 today, but it seems like 212 is good enuf !!! i will go for it then!

Got one Cooler master Hyper 212 plus. Here are my temp.
Idle : 22 - 24 C
Load : 38 - 42 C
For RM100+ is great value.

What CPU you are using, very nice result.
Plan to get one but I think it does not fit into casing

C2D E6420. OC'ed 20%. Not sure how other forumers OCed this CPU to be 3GHZ but I am still experimenting so don't want to push it.
Actually I can't fit mine so now temporary open casing with additional fan blowing. Note that the ambient temp is air cond.

Can the fan clip stands 120x38? because i would like crazy airflow rather than just peace and quite....dont ask me why...im abit noise craze

so can it stand 120x38?

Should be able to
the fan clip quite tight.

omg lower than ambient temperature, cold touch feeling

in am3 mobo , should attach on the mobo or vertically( 2 way flow)?vertical can attach 1 more fan??

this temp is in aircond room right?

well..im satisfied with the 212+ performance but its bend my MSI K9N SLI platinum mobo due to the all in one mountintg backplate bracket which cause my mobo to bend if i intend to mount 4 screw all across the mobo to the casing.

AMD X2 5200+ 2.6ghz >Oced to 3ghz 1.3v
Idle : 27 - 30 C
Load : 40 - 50 C

btw the comparison i tot is HDT-1283 not red scorpion 1283.

red scorpion has faster CFM for the fan? so will it perform better than 212 plus?
