Hi ntw, you can bring your CM Storm Inferno to the retailer you bought from for RMA
As for the CM Storm Alcor, it will be arriving pretty soon (roughly a week from now), still - the SRP is yet to be decided.

Still waiting for the Cooler Master Mobile series of products especially the stands to arrive.

Hi Cooler Master,

Is CM hyper 212 evo no longer in production? i tried to find seller for this product and most of them only sell hyper 212X...tq

why would u want to get a EOL product? iinm hyper 212x is better than 212evo

Will there be any chances of having a 140mm version of the Jetflo?

from what i understand from CM website, the noise lvl is lower for 212 evo (from 9db), also it has continuous direct contact heatpipes while 212x has normal direct contacts..

maybe i could be wrong as never tried it before, can sifu help to enlighten on this?

Hi RoyRF,

The Hyper 212X is the upgraded version of the previous Hyper 212 Evo. Fan aside, the difference lies with the aluminum fins.
They have X-shaped perforations around the heatpipes. These perforations have a two-fold purpose: the first is to help direct some of the airflow around behind the heatpipes to stop "heat pockets" from forming, the second is to allow for better a better type of airflow.

i see, so 212x basically is the upgraded version..so wht about the noise level? issit similar with evo or better?

will i have difficulty to apply the thermal since it's not smooth surface compared to 212 evo? thanks

the noise level depends on the fan u use on the heatsink. 212evo and 212x comes with extraflo fans which are really powerful but still noisy at full blast. u can change the fans to Arctic Cooling F12 if you want quieter and better performance fan

afaik both heatsink uses direct touch heatpipe design. and the reason to use thermal paste is to fill in the gaps between those "unsmooth" surface and the cpu

The thing about the 212X fan brackets or clips is that they have added additional protrusions to fit into to recess of the fan frame. Not a problem if you just use the default Blademaster fan or standard 'square frame' 120mm fans, but its a hassle if you wanna change it 'rubber frame' fans like Jetflo, Cougar Vortex or Corsair SP's. The protrusions actually need to be cut off for these fans to work.

A step back from the EVO clips IMO, they didn't have these.

Oh really? haha..i must have got it wrong right there i have 2 sickleflow fans 120mm..& it's darn loud..some forumers advised me to take out the fans and i'm just hoping that extraflo fans wouldn't be as laud as the former..

thanks for the info!

i wouldn't notice about that either..nyway thanks mate for the info!

Don't worry about the surface. Both have nearly identical surface. Have tried and tested both, I personally find no difference in terms of the heatpipes surface.

Hi Cooler Master

I had sent my Cooler Master Silent Pro M 700W PSU for RMA due to faulty with proof of purchase at PC shop on May 2013. Until now I haven’t get back my replacement PSU. Is that need took long period of time for RMA process. Please advice.

Hi, will the quickfire rapid be sold here? Thanks

Just 1 question. Will CM CPU Cooler V8 GTS fit in my Cosmos SE case?

COSMOS SE supports up to 175mm height for CPU cooler
the V8 GTS is 166.5mm tall
so the answer in theory is yes

Thank you
