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

I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

For the CPU cooler I am still playing with the idea of using an enclosed system like the H80 or similar system mainly because it will cut down on weight added to the main board.

The radiator would be mounted within the main section on the backpack and would draw air through a hole cut in to the lining between the right side pouch and the main. It would be secured to the frame by a metal plate tacked to the frame inside the pack. (Little yellow pieces on the little sketch.)

The thing isn't exactly to scale, but this is a general idea of what I want. Best I could do with only a few minutes.

I'm also still working out exactly how to orient it to maximize space and air flow.

This is a very interesting project, I'm eager to see the outcome.

Also, that 760GC is tight.

This all depends on whether I mount it on a riser or not. I'm not one hundred percent sure whether I will be using it just because it will be a bit easier to perform maintenance on the whole thing if I don't. I think liquid cooling is a must though, and that 760 looks to be a perfect choice since it cuts down on moving parts and allows for cooler running.
