Ivy Bridge versions are going to be 77w or less, further eliminating the need for a high-end cooler.
COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 EVO INSTALL SERIES
Performanceįor Intel Xeon E3-1200 series processors, I would suggest that these CPU coolers are all overkill as 80-95w TDP is relatively low. One should take care to remember that adding a second fan does negate some of the value one gets by purchasing such an expensive CPU cooler. Although one fan is included, one can easily add a second fan for better performance.
COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 EVO INSTALL PLUS
I will note that the Hyper 212 Plus is too large, when installed, to fit in most 4 U server and workstation chassis due to its height. The Hyper 212 Plus does not suffer from this common installation caveat. One aspect that is fairly important with the Hyper 212 Plus is that the heatsink is not deep enough to interfere with installation (when fans are not installed.) Some CPU coolers have heatsinks that overhang their mounting points making installation very difficult using standard screwdrivers. Httpv://The Hyper 212 Plus utilizes four heat pipes and an aluminum fin tower cooler design. Cooler Master has a great YouTube video on installing the Hyper 212 Plus.
I use the Hyper 212 Plus and Hyper 212 EVO models quite often on personal systems and around the lab so I can do a complete installation in about three minutes at this point, including thermal paste installation. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus is a very easy cooler to install. That is why we saw the Hydro Series coolers be so easy to mount. Servers and workstations often come with a chassis that includes all necessary fans. Adding a cooling component to a 120mm fan mount is trivial in the context of consumer cases, while it is not a given that workstation and server chassis may not include appropriate mounting points. This is going to be fairly typical for a LGA 2011 workstation with either and Intel Xeon or Intel Core i7 CPU.

COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 EVO INSTALL UPGRADE
For those looking to use an older Hyper 212 Plus on a LGA 2011 Intel Core i7 or Intel Xeon E5 platform like we use on the site, the Hyper 212 Plus did not come with the stock retention bracket (it is standard on the newer models.) Cooler Master does provide a LGA 2011 bracket upgrade program for those that need it. What it does do well is provide fairly good performance inexpensively, often found for sub $30 and refurbished from time to time for $12.
The Hyper 212 Plus is a fairly standard heatpipe tower cooler size wise and is not the best performer. Today we are looking at a cooler that has been a very strong value for awhile now, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus (also known as the Hyper 212+) CPU cooler.
