CM Hyper 212 Evo V2 – Evolution of the legend among coolers

Cooling, CPU coolers, Extra tests | | Pavel Sekerka

Conclusion and rating

At the end of 2020, I prepared another review of a middle-class cooler for you. The Hyper 212 Evo V2 from Cooler Master is the latest model from the popular Hyper 212 series. This latest upgrade offers a simplified mounting system, 100% compatibility with RAM modules and also a quiet fan. Its construction and specifications place it in the same group as the SPC Fera 3 or Arctic Freezer 34. So I’m expecting a very tight fight.

Conclusion and rating

Hyper 212 Evo V2 is a good cooler overall. Pleasantly quiet fan operation is complemented by solid cooling efficiency. The build quality is on a high level and the overall appearance is minimalistic and calm.

I was pleasantly surprised by the simple and straightforward mounting system as well as the non-traditional mounting of the fan. The only negatives that I can think of are a slightly higher price compared to the direct competition and also, unfortunately, the very limited availability of the cooler on the Czech and Slovak markets.

All things considered, however, it is a solid cooler and you will not make a mistake by purchasing one. For this, the cooler receives our award ‘Approved’ , which we will now award to all products that pass our tests without any serious flaws.

Something for warm-up. We’ll start our ATX 3.0 PSU tests with perhaps the most talked about topic surrounding them, the temperatures of the new cables with 16-pin PCIe connectors. The overview of the PSUs of twelve brands answers well the question of how the manufacturers handled which models. With high current loads, the temperature differences can be quite significant, both on the connector housings and on the wire insulation.
