Upon opening the package, you’re presented with a white accessories box that has a Cooler Master logo in the middle.Īfter removing the accessories box, it reveals the Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition cooler as well as an installation guide. On the remaining side of the box you have a table listing Hyper 212 RGB’s specifications. Looking toward the bottom of the box, there is a wireframe design of the cooler with some of its key dimensions. On the back, it highlights those features noted on the side of the box in 8 different languages. On the side of the box, it mentions some of the main features that include: direct contact technology, a precise combination of airflow and heatsink, and include RGB LED controller. In the upper right corner, you have the support RGB software that includes: Asus Aura, ASRock Polychrome Sync, Gigabyte Fusion and MSI Mystic Lighting Sync.

On the front of the box, there is a photo of the new Hyper 212 sporting its new all black finish as well as a purple lit SP120R RGB fan. The Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition arrived in a mostly black box with some royal purple accents. Over the past 25+ years they brought many advancements and firsts to the PC industry (such as the first all copper heat sink) and today, they continue to innovate by bringing new and exciting products to market. Starting with its first product, a Socket 7 CPU heat sink in 1993, its product line has since grown to Cases, Peripherals, Fans, and much more. Started by a rogue product manager who had no funding and no support except a single administrative secretary, he set out to create, innovate and improve products for the PC industry. ORYX later became Cooler Master, which we know the company as today. We would like to thank Cooler Master for sending the Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition to review.īack in 1992, when the internet was in its early stages and CPUs were measured in MHz rather than GHz, a company called ORYX was born. Even with all these visual updates, the Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition still remains very affordable at an MSRP of $39.99. Jumping on the RGB bandwagon, the Hyper 212 features an SP120R RGB fan and includes a controller if by chance your motherboard doesn’t have an RGB header. The Hyper 212 RGB features a nickel-plated jet-black finish which should look great in any build. With the new Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition, that is a thing of the past. The Hyper 212 line from Cooler Master has been a staple for PC builders for some time and during that time, its looks haven’t changed all that much.
