In this example we can see with Corsair LPX modules, there is ample clearance but installation would not be possible in slot #4 (far left) with the cooler installed first.

If installing 2 DIMMS Use slots 1 and 3.įit the AM4 Mounting Bracket over the cooler base plate (Aluminum).

RAM slot order from left to right: 4-3-2-1.

To ensure all 4 RAM slots can be populated, customers must install their DIMMs prior to installing their Hyper 212 EVO. An updated (Gen2) mounting bracket will be available mid-March that will allow up/down or front/back orientation.

This current solution only allows the cooler to be mounted in one orientation (up/down) so there potentially could be some clearance issues for DIMMs with tall heat spreaders installed in slot #4 (closest to the CPU Socket). It is also available for existing 212 EVO owners for $4.99. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO has a compatibility bracket available (AM4 SOCKET MOUNTING KIT Gen1 - SKU 246918) which will be free with purchase of the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO.
