So cool my friend! Glad the video was able to help out a little... Have a great 2021! ⚡️

Excellent guide. I used this to install the cooler and my 5600x. I was so nervous it wouldn't work too. Thank you!

While I understood the manual of the cooling fan, this video makes it much clearer. Specially the part where I had to remove the two dummy braces on my new motherboard in order to get those 4 holes where the back plate goes. Thanks.

[@iamgigglz]

Thank you for a clear, informative video! I’m an experienced PC builder but assembling the mounting plate of a second hand cooler without instructions was a guessing game.

[@ScottsPC]

Thanks for the comment... Even with the included instructions it was a guessing game... Lol... Motivated me to make this video.

[@Tibetan1962]

I have installed several 212s over the years, but never on an AM4, and not in 6-8 years. Your vid ticked all the right boxes and my black edition went onto my new 5800X with no issues. My fan has enough clearance to add another 16GB of RAM in the future, and the 212BE cools the 5800X JUST ENOUGH to keep the CPU under 75 C while running Cinebench R20 (way more load than this workstation PC is likely to see day to day). Thanks a bunch!

[@ScottsPC]

Really appreciate the comment my friend and just glad the video could help out some....Good luck to you!

[@alxnd_r6345]

Thats a great result for 5800x on full load. I just got that cpu and im off to the store to get this cooler. Did you change something in bios settings?

[@byDavee]

Thanks so much for this Scott! I tried to install the Hyper 212 when I first built my computer a few days ago but couldn't get it to fit after following the poor instructions that were included with it, so I ended up just using the stock cooler, but I wasn't so impressed with the temperatures I was getting. After following this video today I managed to fit it and am already seeing much better temperatures on my Ryzen 5 3600. Thanks again :)

[@ScottsPC]

That's awesome my friend! ⚡️ The included instructions are poor! Glad the video helped and have fun with your new build! ⚡️

[@dylansmith8930]

Unlike the top result for this config, you actually go through EVERY step and don't skip anything. Thanks for a great tutorial! One thing I don't think you hit that tripped me up: the straight AMD brackets that go directly on the heat sink can very easily be flipped around and installed the wrong way, changing the orientation of the screws.

[@ScottsPC]

[@Rhaspun]

I just replaced my stock intel CPU fan with the V2 version of this CPU cooler/heatsink. It was easy. It is quieter than the Intel CPU cooler. Even when the speed increases to around 900 to 1000 it is still quieter than the Intel fan. I really don't hear much of an increase in fan sound when it spins up to 900 rpm. The V2 was easy to install. Especially since it has the plastic clips.

[@Chiggeriffic]

Great guide, but one comment. 6:25 "Don't worry about over-tightening the screws, they will bottom out." I over-tightened a screw. It broke off in the mounting socket. After that, it was game over. Put the old cooler back on and now trying to order a new socket and bracket so I can give it another go. Another fun thing I encountered was that the old mounting bracket did not fall out as advertised. I had to take tin snips to the back plate in order to remove it as the left side was covering the left edge of the bracket pinning it in place. Had to take tin snips to the back plate to make a couple cuts to bend it out to remove the old mounting bracket and put the new one in. No way the new bracket would have fit even if I could get the old one out without cutting. Poor design by the case manufacturer. Would not have fit even if I had taken the motherboard out to install the cooler.

[@Morrigins]

Followed this guide step by step and got to the point where i had to install the heat sync over the brackets but the screws won’t actually go into hold. so for now i’m lost there and have no fan for the CPU. i’ve been at it for 7 hours. will try again tomorrow.

[@ScottsPC]

Figure it out?

[@eamono]

Thank you Scott!

The mounting brackets were making me sweat bullets. Was getting so tight I thought those feckers were going to crack my 5900x.

[@imagineprovoked2967]

I tried lining up the heat sync even without it being on the motherboard but its just not lining up

[@Simon-SBL]

They must have kept the plastic fan clips on the LED Turbo [twin fan] version as that is what was included on my one, those metal ones look a pain! You could install the fans before you put the mobo back in the case, that makes it a lot easier.

I'm installing it on a LG1150 on a Asus maximus hero VI with 2 x 8gb Corsair Vengence. The single fan is pretty close to the RAM. Does it matter which side the fan is on ?

[@ScottsPC]

If possible I would definitely try and put the fan on the right side of the heatsink to push air toward the rear of your case. You can put a fan on the left side only, but it won't be as effective as a "pull" fan.....

[@DJChipsandGarlic]

Bought this to try and get my 3600 temps down. Its weird sometimes it idles in the 40s or 60s 🤷 no matter what I do. I have three case fan in the front and one exhaust fan too. It’s what came with the Corsair midtower
