It was widely know for great cooling at a decent price. I heard a lot of great thing about that cooler though.

Not sure if that should be the case (also not sure what impact that might have on my thermal paste, will have to test temps under loads).I never had the chance to ever use the OG Hyper 212 EVO. I feel I tightened everything properly (do not want to overdo it, not fond of too much pressure on the CPU), but I noticed that it rotated a bit, so I rotated it back to the proper alignment. could you rotate it a bit now that its mounted?

I assembled PC yesterday, run it for a few minutes and my idle CPU temp was like 8 degrees above ambient with the fan not audible with the case opened.Īctually I do have a question. I guess the lesson from that is to mount it before putting the mobo in the case ) unless you do have someone to help (still advised to mount it first and spent the time saved drinking beer).ītw, I also do love the cooler. I have a big case but the cooler is so huge there is not much space around it. Once I mounted the mobo (with cooler) already attached I actually thought to myself how hard it would be to do it now.
