Hyper 212 Evo Compatibility

Hi! I really want the Hyper 212 Evo for cooling my fx 6300 or 8320. I feel like ocing them to about 4.5 GHz. The problem is, I need a case to fit it. I have trouble finding cases for it as most of them have clearance up to 155mm or so. Could you give me some suggestions on other air coolers or cases that are around $50? I do not want to spend so much on a liquid cooler tho. Sorry if this post is supposed to be in the Cases topic!

Thanks :)

The Corsair Spec-01 just barley fits it. Looks cool though.

These cases came to mind:

 

NZXT Source 210 Elite

NZXT Source 220

Corsair 300R

NZXT Phantom 240

Silverstone KL05B-W

 

For air cooling under $50 I'd look into something beefy like the Thermalright Macho. Make sure it fits the case you choose to go with and that your ram will be compatible.

The Hyper 212 evo would fit in that case

I would get the corsair 200R if you are looking to keep your cooler and replace your kit. my friend @JaytechGaming has a hyper 212 evo in his case and it fits

But i agree with Techdude154. Get the 200R

Main Rig - Case: Fractal Design Pop Air XL Motherboard: Asus TUF B650 Plus WIFI CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600 RAM: Corsair Nautilus 240 RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB 3000MHz32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000MHz  SSD: 1 TB 1TB Samsung 990 Pro NVMe

HDD: 2TB WD Blue  GPU: Asus RTX4070 Dual Evo PSU: Corsair RM850X

About the 200R, will the airflow be the same as cases that have a front mesh/grill e.g. SPEC-03? The 200R gets air from the sides, and to me, that means limited airflow.

I live in a tropical country, meaning that the ambient temperature in my room is around 30C during afternoons. When I switch on the A/C at night, it cools down to about 25C.

 

Thanks :D

I think the 200r gets air from the front through the vents on the sides of the front panel. Look up a YouTube review of that case

Get the Cryorig H7, in addition to being a couple of bucks cheaper it looks better, has 100% RAM compatibility, performs better, and is easier to install.

CatzRuleZWorld is correct. The air intake comes from the vents on the front.

As @Techdude154 previously stated, I have this case and a hyper 212 evo. My ambient temp is something like 22-27C on a bad day. I get an average load temp of about 65C when running Prime95 which maxes all 8 cores of my 8320 and the fan is still hardly audible. I only use the one front stock fan and the one stock rear fan. Buying two or three more cheap and quiet fans should be enough to trick out this case with good air cooling.

AMD sensor's aren't accurate below 40C. Your idle temps should be around 10C higher. Also the recommended maximum temperature for the 8320 is 62C, around 70C the processor starts to throttle.

But it gets air from the sides of the front panel unlike the SPEC-03 which gets air from the front of the front panel right? I'm thinking that it wouldn't get enough air unlike the SPEC-03.

Am I wrong?

Yes but it still provides more than adequate airflow for your case.
