Been looking at the Hyper 212 Black Edition, for my Ryzen 5 2600X. Seems to have good performance and looks good. 

Anyone have any better suggestions, or experience with this cooler?

I actually juuuust installed it on my 2600 yesterday.

 

So when I play the Witcher 3 at 1080p with max settings, along with stock cooler and my 2600 at 3.9ghz the max temps I see (With HWInfo) is around the 70mark with spikes to low 80s.

 

After installing the CM Hyper 212 BE I got to 4ghz oc. I downloaded cinebench 20 to see if the 4ghz oc was stable or not.

After tweaking the voltage it finally stabilized with max temps around the high 60s. Never reached 70 during cinebench or playing Witcher 3.

 

So lower temps with an additional 100mhz oc seems pretty good I guess.

 

Bought an extra red led fan for a push pull config coz I thought it would improve temps.

Ok thanks, sounds pretty good.

 

Mainly concerned with pulling temps out of the eighties when I'm rendering, then I can hopefully overclock.

It's pretty good for the price. Though I'm no expert, would cinebench20 tests be similar to rendering?

Yes, I think Cinebench is effectively a render, as that's a good way to max all of the cores at once.

Ok that's good to hear. The score I got was around 3060 Multi and 400 Single with 4ghz.

Oh damn that's a good score. My non-overclocked 2600X is sitting at 2946. Will defo need to overclock.

I think the 2600x can definitely get higher score. Can't really go 4.1 with my 2600 without increasing voltage again. And my mobo doesn't seem to be good enough to do that...

Yeah can hopefully get to 4.2 or 4.3, with better cooling.

Yeah. Though I was wondering if I should wait until 3rd gen ryzen releases to see if there are any new coolers that may come out.

But I think the 212 BE will last me for quite a while.

Only if you're lucky. 4.25ghz at 1.45v is already in top 25%. https://siliconlottery.com/pages/statistics

 

The Hyper 212 BE is pretty good.
