Installing a HYPER 212 BLACK EDITION Air Cooler in a PC (Tutorial)

In this video I will be showing you how to install an air cooler into your PC. Whether you are building a new system, or just replacing an old cooler, this video will help you out. This method works for most air coolers. I will be installing the Hyper 212 Black Edition from Cooler Master.

Thanks dude, almost thought I had to take off my whole motherboard

[bregowine]

I had never replaced any component in my PC, and your video helped me tackle it with some confidence. Everything worked well in the end. Thank you so much for sharing this

Thank you! This is the only video I found about changing a CPU cooler that shows how you can get to the backplate on the back of the motherboard without having to take the motherboard out of the case entirely.

Built my first pc today and I used this video to install my cpu cooler. This was super helpful, thanks!!!

"Give it a li'l smooshy smooshy" made me chuckle. Thanks a lot man, very helpful!!

[gasbilll]

Used this as a basic guide for installing my H412R -- same principles applied, though components are different, and was incredibly helpful! Thank you very much!

Ended up flipping the cooler and worked out great. Wasn’t bad at all. Thanks for the instructions

[kickboxerphil]

I can't thank you enough!!! This was magnificent! I have replaced my Aio with this tonight on my prebuild.. I'd have never managed it in a million years with the standard instructions as they made zero sense.

[grimace]

thank you. i built my first pc a few days ago using a stock cooler and it turned out that when i opened any game it was not keeping the cpu cool enough. i was concerned that i would have to take the whole thing apart to install a better cooler but this has reassured me that it's not going to be as difficult to replace as my imagination made it out to be

Most helping video on youtube for replacing CM hyper 212..every steps shows, .worth to watch for newbie like me..thanks dude..

Yours is the only tutorial which bothers to mention the direction of the fan, so thanks for that. It seems that many Youtube tutorials install the fan the wrong way around, either pushing air back into the case, or else affixing it to the wrong side of the cooler. The manual does not help in this regard. I received an extra fan with my cooler and would like to try out the 'push/pull' method.

Best video I found to help me install this cooler. Thank you so much for making it so much easier!

[llai]

Thank you so much for this video. So clear. I am updating my CPU and replacing a Ryzen 3 3100 with a Ryzen 7 5800x3d and got this exact cooler for it. This video was perfect!

Anyone reading this DO NOT overtighten the larger nuts at 4:43. It will crack the terribly made plastic backplate. If you do crack one and still use it for a while, it’s almost impossible to get back off down the track. There’s nothing to grab a hold of properly without pliers and they can easily scratch the traces on the board.

I’m upgrading from the stock amd fan finally and this is going in my saved videos for when I install the cooler.

[nathanrossiter]

Exactly what I was looking for I have a stock cooler and its about time I change thermal paste so thought might as well upgrade for better temps while i'm at it thank you very much

[Grolmusl]

Please. I noticed that this cooler is compatible with lga 1700 Alder lake. Is it true.? Thanks

[skullsmitten]

really helpful guide! i was very confident with your assistance :) unfortunately it looks like the bracket is a smidge off for my AM4, and i was sure i put the backplate on right... will update my comment if i make any progress 🥲

update: fixed! i had flipped the brackets upside down and backwards trying to work out how they connected—and they have a slight curve to them, so when i ended up attaching them backwards they didnt fit lmao... so it's all installed now! and it's a lot quieter than my old racket-making one, 10/10!

had a brief scare thinking i shorted the gpu or motherboard in the process, but luckily it turned out i only connected a few things wrong after wrapping up my work (my hdmi cables go straight into the graphics card, which i forgot and put them in the normal ports, lol)

thanks again! great video, i wouldn't have made it this far without all the great footage you provided

[tarikvoloder]

Please help me, what are dimenssions of it bcs i dont if it will fit in my case because the rear cooler of my case is 80mm?
