cooler master evo 212
Hello,
I'm considering purchasing a CM hyper evo 212 for my new PC build. While it has received mostly positive reviews, I'm a bit doubtful about its performance at first glance. I currently own a Thermalright Silver Arrow SB-E, which is powerful, but I need to upgrade it since it doesn't support the 1151 socket. My CPU will be an Intel Skylake i5 6600K on an ASUS Sabertooth Z170 motherboard. I'm looking for a 4.5 GHz overclock and wondering if the hyper evo can handle that level of performance, or if I should opt for the Silver Arrow IB-E Extreme instead.
Hello,
I’m considering purchasing a CM hyper evo 212 for my new PC build. I’m a bit unsure about its performance, even though it has good reviews. At first glance it seems quite small, which worries me.

My CPU will be an Intel Skylake i5 6600K with an ASUS Sabertooth Z170 motherboard. I’d like a 4.5 GHz overclock, but can the hyper evo handle that? Or should I opt for the Silver Arrow IB-E Extreme instead?
Yes, it’s possible. I already have an i5-6600K in my system, so the EVO should work well. It won’t be too small, as I assure you. Also, I suggest using Arctic Silver thermal paste and watching some YouTube tutorials on applying it correctly.
