Introduction
While water cooling was the only way to keep hot chips cool a decade ago, nowadays air cooling has really improved. Granted, much of this is down to the huge heatsinks that we now slap onto our toasty CPUs, and this cooler is no exception. The Cooler Master Hyper 612S is another of the monster HSF combos. Its designed to be big, powerful and quiet. Ambitious claims, let’s see how it does.
