Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus safe for lga1150?

[Citadel535]

Hi everyone,

I am running an i7 4770k with the stock cooler but have a hyper 212 plus I bought. I emailed cooler master and got kind of a form letter response saying it's fine for this processor but was wondering if anyone else can confirm this is the case? I am just unsure if the intel stands/connectors will put adequate pressure to allow heat transfer and not too much pressure to crack the cpu.

Thanks!

I *think* it would be fine. But I have no personal experience.

Neither the OEM cooler nor the CM 212 will exert enough pressure on an unmodified CPU to crack it.

Unless you are installing it with a sledgehammer.

1150 uses the same mounting specs as 1155, so all is good.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I suspected it would work but wanted to see if the general consensus was it would be fine since I tend to second guess myself.

Off topic, but you have an avvy now.:thumbsup:

My 4670K runs with a Hyper 212 Evo at 4.4GHz under 1.2V, never going above 70c during real loads. I bet some luckier CPUs can go much higher at 1.275V.

Yup, the 212+ and EVO both work fine on 1150 socket.

No worries OP. I tested my 4770Ks for a little while on my spare Hyper 212+.
