1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:08,200
so today I'm going to be having a look at The Cooler Master hyper 212 plus this

2
00:00:04,319 --> 00:00:09,760
is a very popular uh value heat sync

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:13,920
because it provides nearly the performance of much more expensive heat

4
00:00:11,799 --> 00:00:19,760
sinks it has a wide range of compatibility including core i7 Core i5

5
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:23,640
core I3 and am3 so it fits on basically anything and it also features some

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:30,240
traditionally more expensive high-end features like heat pipe direct touch as

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:32,480
well as a 120 mm fan and in add addition

8
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:36,600
to that it also works with a dual fan and push pull so you can you can really

9
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:42,000
load this thing up like you can't really do with a lot of lower end heat sinks in

10
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:45,559
this sort of a price range so it didn't look like there was a seal on here but

11
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:49,600
it turns out that there is and I'm going to have to get like a key or something

12
00:00:47,879 --> 00:00:55,399
to break the seal you know I really should have a knife on hand ahead of

13
00:00:52,559 --> 00:00:59,559
time for doing these but ah you know what I'm just going to peel the sticker

14
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:02,760
off that would work better yes there we go

15
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:06,920
that worked out really well for me okay so let's see what we're going to find

16
00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:12,280
inside of the Box first we will find a plastic clamshell style of packaging

17
00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:18,880
okay and then let's see what we got in here in terms of accessories so there we

18
00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:21,320
go all right so first thing we find a

19
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:29,079
multi back plate so this back plate is compatible with am3 as well as lga8 775

20
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:31,119
1156 and 1366 it has all the necessary

21
00:01:29,079 --> 00:01:35,520
holes and and you can see from the way that they lift it up that is how they

22
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:39,720
get compatibility with both Intel and AMD because with Intel this will sit

23
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,960
flush with the back or it'll have to lift up over the 1366 back plate but

24
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:49,880
with AMD it actually has a significantly larger back plate that it has to oh no

25
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:53,960
wait no I guess with AMD they're not even oh this is kind of okay now I'm a

26
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:57,759
little bit confused I'm not going to pretend to know how this mounts because

27
00:01:55,439 --> 00:02:03,360
it looks like there's like some kind of a sticker backing on the back here okay

28
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:05,240
forget it all right moving forward we

29
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,640
have more accessories including an instruction manual which is tucked into

30
00:02:07,039 --> 00:02:16,120
the back of the little fan shell so I'll go ahead and pull up the instruction manual first maybe maybe on camera I can

31
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:21,200
figure out exactly how that backplate works so wow this is like huge okay

32
00:02:19,879 --> 00:02:24,640
first of all there's your warranty information slip okay so that's going to

33
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:28,800
tell you all about the warranty in a bunch of different languages wow that's

34
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:34,560
a lot of different languages it's like nine on each side even has Serbian and

35
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:39,440
Turkish awesome I love it you can tell a company is is properly International

36
00:02:36,959 --> 00:02:46,680
when you know I mean here same thing here's our instruction guide wow that is

37
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:46,680
like everything check this

38
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:51,319
out and then all along the other side

39
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:57,920
all these different languages okay so the English one says how do we do this

40
00:02:55,519 --> 00:03:03,360
oh I was right the first time it looks like for LGA 1156

41
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:09,519
the back plate actually um lifts up off the back okay whereas for

42
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,400
AMD we're actually using the back plate

43
00:03:09,519 --> 00:03:16,400
looking thing on yeah we flip it around the other

44
00:03:13,519 --> 00:03:22,280
way okay I get it so for AMD you put it on this way for Intel you put it on this

45
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,519
way yes there we go we figured it out

46
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:28,959
awesome okay so inside here we're going to find all of the other mounting

47
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:32,480
hardware that we need including the hold down for the front so you can I mean

48
00:03:30,959 --> 00:03:38,879
this is very obvious you can see this is for AMD that's for Intel and then these can

49
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:43,200
be moved back and forth I'm not sure if they slide or if you have to actually

50
00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:49,120
take them out I can't tell but these will actually move in and out depending

51
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:53,120
Which Intel you are using 775 1156 or

52
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:56,400
1366 very ingenious hold down this uh

53
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:59,159
looks like some kind of fan Mount yep

54
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,519
all right and then in here we'll find yeah the rest of to the hardware I'm not

55
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:06,000
going to go and pull out all these screws I don't want to lose them but that's all the other stuff you'll need

56
00:04:04,439 --> 00:04:11,640
as well as some Cooler Master thermal paste nice of them to include that for

57
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:13,799
you all right okay so let's have a look

58
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:19,079
at the heat pipe cooler itself so the fan is pre-attached oh yeah I get it

59
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:22,720
okay so these additional Clips here are they they even include the clips for you

60
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:26,080
so you can put these on either side and then you can attach your second fan

61
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:31,720
right out of the box if you have another fan and you have four mounting screws for it that's terrific Okay so as I

62
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:35,720
mentioned before this is a heat pipe direct touch cooler so that means the

63
00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:39,800
heat pipes are all flattened along the bottom so they actually do make direct

64
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:44,919
contact with your CPU I wouldn't be doing this right if I didn't do the obligatory shininess shot so you can see

65
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:49,600
that they are quite shiny and the surface does appear to be quite flat but

66
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:54,039
really eyeballing it is not very useful um it comes down to Performance data and

67
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:58,039
the hyper is a very good performer for the money so oh yeah we I should mention

68
00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:02,320
this there are four heat pipes and they do go up both sides of the cool cooler

69
00:05:01,039 --> 00:05:07,320
okay and you can see that they come out the top here it's 120 mm big and the fan

70
00:05:05,759 --> 00:05:11,479
is actually kind of unique looking this is this is a fan blade shape that I

71
00:05:10,039 --> 00:05:15,639
haven't really seen before you see how it's kind of like a wavy shape rather

72
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:19,400
than a more straight swept blade so that's kind of nice too I've heard that

73
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:23,080
this cooler is actually quite silent but I don't actually have somewhere to hook

74
00:05:21,039 --> 00:05:28,080
it up right now I think that pretty much concludes everything I wanted to

75
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:32,160
demonstrate about the hyper 212 plus so thank you for checking out my unboxing

76
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:35,160
and first look and I'm just going to sort of give you some more angles here

77
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:41,680
to check it out there's your Cooler Master logo on the top thank you for

78
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,680
