We have explained the differences in CPU temperature measurement and how to overclock in detail in the Intel Core i3, i5, i7 and Intel Core i9 overclocking guide. The noise level remains well below 40 dB and is thus completely within the green zone. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo V2 easily manages the 65W TDP (Thermal Design Power) and even the 100W TDPc via Base Frequency Boost with medium to maximum speed. The results show that the processor’s package temperature does not exceed 90☌ even in extreme cases with a fan speed of 20%, whereas Intel would only throttle the CPU from about 100☌ to protect it (thermal throttling).

After that, these three speed ranges follow again with identical volume in Prime95 Small FFT’s full load. 1252 rpm and finally with 20% speed at approx.


In the following Cooler Master Freezer diagram, you can see from top to bottom the results of the Intel Core i5-10500 CPU at idle with 100% speed, i.e. Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo V2 test results … These are to replace the current 120mm Cooler Master Sic. In addition, we determine the respective speed. Adding two ARCTIC F12 PWM 120mm fans onto the Cooler Master 212 EVO CPU cooler on my primary system. We measure the fan volume with a sound pressure level meter in dB from a distance of 100cm. So, we stressed the Intel Core i5-10500 CPU with Prime95 Small FFTs to the point that Base Frequency Boost achieved about 100 Watts TDP and now noted the temperature at low, medium and maximum RPM. Therefore, we overclocked the locked Intel CPU by increasing Primary Plane Current Limit, Short Duration Power Limit, and Long Duration Power Limit to the point where we could reach about 100W TDPc at maximum load (Small FFTs). However, since we are here at, we naturally wanted to test the cooler with CPU overclocking despite the locked CPU multiplier. We first tested the Intel Core i5-10500 CPU without overclocking in idle at low, medium and maximum speed. The following image shows a thermal image of the ASRock Z490 Steel Legend LGA 1200 test system with the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo V2 cooler.Īnd here is another picture of the front side, which is not yet too heated up, for a better representation of the heat distribution.

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 room temperature was around 21☌ during the test. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus is a very easy cooler to install. The following OC tools were used for the measurement: Prime95 and Intel XTU
