bit-tech published a review of Cooler Master's Hyper TX2 & 212 heatsinks



If you're after the ultimate performance from an air heatsink the Cooler Master Hyper 212 should certainly fit the bill with its included high performance fan and dual fan option, but you'll need to swap the fan out for a quieter alternative or at least lower the voltage on the current one if pine for a quiet environment.

For those looking for an inexpensive but still capable heatsink, the Hyper TX2 is a good purchase. With both AMD and Intel support included it does more than the Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 Pro, but it's worth remembering that the Freezer 7 Pro performs better and has a 4-pin connector to knock the fan noise down on the many compatible motherboards. The Hyper TX2 suffers from the same fate as the Hyper 212, in that it's audible but not offensive, and the fan can again be swapped out if need be, unlike the Freezer 7 Pro.
