Will a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO keep this CPU cool enough when not overclocked? It's an aftermarket air CPU cooler, not liquid.

Short answer is yes this will keep your CPU very cool, but make sure you have enough room to install it in your computer case this is a tall cooler almost 5 inches.

Yes! Be sure to use cpu thermal heatsink grease! "Caution" when using a lower grade cooler failure is at a higher risk!

Well, i have a coler master seidon 120 xl with mother board crosshair v formula-z and is NOT doing a pretty good job, i will recomend you use liquid cooler

I will say no. I'm currently using the biggest Bequiet heatsink with two (1 120mm and 1 140mm) and it still idles at 45 and goes up to 60 - 65 degrees when playing BF3

if it's the 1150 compatible than it should you might run into memory clearance issues I used the hyper 212 evo and it was close as far as the heat spreaders not touching , got about 1/8" to 1/4" clearance with the 212 with the 212 and a 4770k had it OC'd to 4.4ghz and it only got to 60*c running Prime95 for 12 hours

This case will provide plenty of airflow to help cool your processor. Just make sure you have a good cooler to pair it with if you plan to overclock it.

I have a Cooler Master 200 mm fan in the top of the case. The COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO is 6.25 inches tall the Fan is about an inch deep. Its about 6.75 inches from motherboard to case roof. It might work and its worth a try as the fan really cools everything.

The standard cooler is good enough. You can't over clock this CPU anyways so an aftermarket cooler would just be a waste.

BTW go with an aftermarket cooler for that 8350, i have the exact same cpu and it runs quite a bit hotter then any cpu i've ever owned but if you can manage to keep it nice and cool its performance will amaze you.

No. the stock heat sink has pre-installed thermal paste on it. (so good for a first timer). and if you are looking for a non OE heatsink i used the Arttic Freezer 7 Pro 2 (also has pre-installed thermal paste). it keeps my temps down quite a bit (average is around 40-50 Degrees C, which is pretty good). if you are going to be gaming with this CPU i suggest getting a non OE heatsink.

yes.the stock cooler is not enough for the job. and the CPU wull shut down due to over heating.better to get an after market cooler

Yes! But if you are using a gaming capable graphics card and play any games like Crysis, Hard Reset, etc with most things set to high eye-candy then you'll get the temps a little too high and you'll hear it turn up to speeds that will make it sound like a big bumblebee in side the case and that's where you'll need to stop and at least get a Cooler Master Hyper 103 if you can find one in the USA, for some reason NewEgg and Tigerdirect don't have them. If you planed on doing overclocking you'll need an even larger CPU cooler or go to a medium capacity liquid cooling.

i wouldnt suggest OC on stock heatsink. the EVO 212 looks similar to what i got (Arctic Freeze 7 pro), i have my system OC at 4Ghz and in a full tower case i get no more that 55 C during the summer (in oklahoma we have high humidity for the summer), and now with winter set in it stays sub 45 C

Yes, it comes with a heat sink and fan but it was too loud under load so I replaced with a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus unit that performs better and is much quieter. If you anticipate the processor will be under load a good amount of the time (gaming or apps that tax the CPU), you might consider an aftermarket cooler as well to keep temps down and not just for the fan noise.

If it's a stock system yes if it's a aftermarket system you might have to re arrange it. Personally I go air cooling but yes the liquid cooling holes are on the case! Your welcome!!

Get a different cooler those temps are too high! Cooler master 212, you will drop into the low 50's

I haven't experienced any heat issues. I have an Intel i5 3570k overclocked to 4.2gHz being cooled with a the Antec Kuhler single rad closed water cooling system venting out the top. I swapped the fan out for a pressure optimized Noctua. My suggestion is to not try to air cool your CPU with this case. I'm also running two GTX 660s and an EVGA 750w PSU. The PSU vents out the bottom of the case, so it doesn't really matter that its covered. Its just more aesthetically pleasing. Just be sure to set it on a hard surface and not carpet or else it's going to suffocate. Worth mentioning that this case runs decently quiet with the stock fans as well.

Stock cooler is fine. It's noisy, though. It may also depend on your case set up - you might have less air flow in your case and/or maybe running Crossfire or SLI with 2 hot GPUs. I have since bought a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO, which is awesome. I have a Coolermaster HAF Tower, so I have good air flow in my case naturally. In any case, I doubt you'll have over-heating issues with the stock fan and heatsink without overclocking it.

no, it comes with a heatsink with thermal paste already applied to it. However if you are going to use an aftermarket heatsink you will have to buy thermal paste and apply it to the processor. also if you see that a processor is an OEM part it will not come with a heatsink or thermal paste. This one is not OEM which means that its got all the required things to cool it.

This always depends upon what you nave to do with it. By the way, since it is not overclockable and its frequency clock is moderately high, I think you can easily keep its stock cooling fan (like as I did)
