Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler (RR-212E-20PK-R1)
Reviewed by AlDyer

All in all great cooler for the money and has always worked reliably. Excellent for a backup cooling system or for low-cost budget computers, while still being able to overclock.

Also, any chance the "bad" outlet is one of the outlets that has the reset button built into it? similar to what you would see in the kitchen or the bathroom?

If so, something could have possibly tripped it and it was not outputting any power.

I've got tow of those (810W unit though) and they will turn on for voltage drops and surges. If our laser printer is used it will turn on for around 30 seconds until the printer is hot. It's adjustable in the software for the UPS. Should also have a diagnostic in it too that you could try running.

UPS software is here.
