A few weeks ago the worldwide famous company called Cooler Master released their latest CPU coolers focused on a low price and average performance for the regular customers. After I received the package with both samples which arrived this week, I was really surprised because of the coolers offers something unique. So the first model to be tested is Cooler Master Blizzard T2. A fine small cooler with a unique feature. Show  As you all can see the cooler arrived in a very standard, for the company carton package, again in the typical white, purple, black colours with a huge picture on the front side of the box and a few technical details for the cooler. From the very first look everybody can notice that this cooler has something strange and I can say unique in it and that is the heatpipes system, which I will talk later about. Of course, all of the technical details for this product are on the other sides of the carton box: As soon as I saw the picture on the front side of the box I was really eager to check what’s inside and there it is: The cooler was placed in a foam compartment and there was a second smaller box holding the additional accessories.
So let’s check the cooler itself: Cooler Master Blizzard T2 as any other cooler is made of a heatsink and a cooling fan. The heatsink of this cooler offers a very interesting feature called Dual Loop™ and is patented by Cooler Master. So the cooler is made of a aluminium contact plate, aluminium fins and copper heatpipes. The interesting thing is that actually the ø6mm heatpipes are only two and they make a circle through the fins and offer the CDC™ Continuous Direct Contact technology. In two words: we have 2 heatpipes with direct contact to the CPU which pass all of the aluminium fins and are connected on top. Seen from the top Side Bottom The whole radiator with the CDC and Dual Loop technologies is cooled by a well known fan used in few other models like Cooler Master TX3 and Cooler Master TX3 EVO, but slightly modified and it is a black fan with a purple propeller. The fan used in Cooler Master Blizzard T2 is Cooler Master Blade Master 92mm which is really nice but a bit noisy fan when working at 2200 RPM ±10% revolutions per minute with airflow level of 43 CFM and noise level 30 dBA. The fan is powered and regulated by a 3 pin connector. The overall dimensions of the cooler are 93 x 80 x 140 mm and overall weight of 340 grams. From what I saw the cooler is a small type very similar to TX3 and TX3 EVO models but a bit cheaper. To keep the tradition, before I move on to the test results, I would like to describe the system used for the test: CPU: AMD Athlon X4 620 at standard frequency of 2612 MHz and overclocked first at 3003 MHz(1,47V) and after that overclocked at 3640 MHz (at 1.5V) per core for the tests. Motherboard: GigaByte 790X-UD3P Video card: Sapphire 5830 Extreme 1GB DDR5 256bit Memory: 2 x 2GB Apacer 800 MHz Hard drive: Kingston SSD SV100S264G Case: Cooler Master HAF 932 Power supply: Cooler Master Silent Pro 600 Cooler: Cooler Master Blizzard T2 Thermal paste: Gelid GC-Supreme Fans mounted on the cooler: Purple version of Cooler Master Blade Master 92mm The tests were conducted in a closed system with:
Testing procedure: I will install Cooler Master Blizzard T2 and do tests at default frequency 2612 mHz at idle and stress, then at overclocked frequency 3003MHz at idle and stress and lastly at overclocked frequency of 3640 mHz again at idle and stress using just the standard fan from the package. Before I continue I want to tell that it’s really easy to install this cooler on AMD and probably on Intel systems. I believe it’s about time to check how the cooler performs. The mounting system of the cooler is one of the basic ones using the standard plastic bracked provided with the motherboard and a metal clip to attach the cooler. For Intel the cooler can be installed in every direction, while for AMD it can be installed only in horizontal position with the fan blowing towards the top of the case as you can see on the picture below. The results from the tests at default frequency 2612MHz are: Idle: Stress: The results from the tests at overclocked frequency 3003 MHz are: Idle: Stress: The results from the tests at overclocked frequency 3640 MHz are: Idle: Stress: All of the test results have been summed up in the following charts: And the fan speed during the tests: I have finished the test and it’s about time to express my opinion about Cooler Master Blizzard T2:
As a disadvantage I can point out that there is no way to install the cooler in vertical position on AMD sockets. What is the temperature of Hyper 212?In terms of idle temperatures, the Ryzen 5 5600 achieved an average CPU CCD1 temperature reading of around 34.3°C, with a low of 31.3°C, and a high of 38.8°C with the Hyper 212 Halo Black. The stock AMD CPU cooler on the other hand, yielded an average idle temperature of 40.4°C, a low of 35.3°C and a high of 56.3°C. Does Hyper 212 Halo come with thermal paste?The Hyper 212 Halo White comes with a small tube of thermal paste, aiding with the transfer of heat from the CPU to the rest of the cooler. All four continuous heatpipes are soldered to the base. The fins are also attached to the heatpipes quite firmly. Is Cooler Master I70C good?Standard Cooler I70CAluminum fins stacked with copper provide excellent heat dissipation. The 120mm blue LED fan with long life expectancy, durable materials, strong airflow, and low noise output. What is the noise level of the Cooler Master Hyper 212?MTTF: 160,000 Hours. Noise Level: 8-30 dBA. Power Connector: 4-Pin (PWM) |
