Cooler Master introduces its second-edition Hyper 612 processor cooler. This new model features six direct-touch 6mm diameter copper heatpipes and a large aluminium fin array, it measures 139mm x 102mm x 160.4mm (L x W x H) and weighs 732g. Airflow is provided by a 120mm PWM fan that delivers up to 44.2CFM at a noise level of 20dBA. The Hyper 612 ver.2 is available online with prices starting around 40EUR.
Cooler Master, a leading creator, innovator, and manufacturer of desktop components and gaming peripherals today announced the latest addition to the Hyper series: the Hyper 612 ver. 2. The Hyper-series is known for its very aggressive price/performance ratio which makes it one of the most popular cooling series in the world!
Silence when you need it
The Cooler Master Hyper 612 ver. 2 is designed with versatility in mind. The first option is to use it as a Silent (passive) cooler. Patented technologies like CDC and X-Vent are two reasons why the Hyper 612 can reach extreme low temperatures.
CDC or Continuous Direct Contact is a technology developed by Cooler Master to improve the contact between the CPU and the heatpipes. This improved contact allows for better heat dissipation and thus improves the performance of the cooler.
The other reason why the Hyper 612 ver. 2 is perfectly suited as Silent cooler is because of the X-Vent Technology. This technology allows better airflow, just by simply using the right angle for the air vents.
Cooler Master recommends to use the Hyper 612 ver. 2 as a passive cooler for CPU’s using up to 95W (for example Core i5).
Performance when you need it
Next to these technologies which already boost the performance of the Hyper 612 ver. 2, there are some other features which allow you to turn the 612 into a high performance cooler.
The most important feature is that you can add an additional fan (next to the PWM fan which comes in the box) to its setup so you can use a double fan configuration. Together with the above average space between the specially shaped cooling fins this double fan option offers you huge airflow options which will make sure your CPU stays as cool as possible.
Diversity when you need it:
The Hyper 612 ver. 2 is a very diverse cooler, which is strengthened by the other features the cooler has to offer:
Two different ways to mount the fan (plastic clip or wire clip)
Four anti-vibration rubbers
No interference with memory due to special design
Easy mounting procedure
All these features make the Hyper 612 ver. 2 a perfect cooler for every situation!
