Verdict

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition

7.2 / 10 Expert Rating

The same dependable 212 performance in a cleaner all-black finish — a safe budget pick.

NZXT X63

7.5 / 10 Expert Rating

Solid 280mm cooling with NZXT's signature look, best for cases sized for 280mm rather than 360mm radiators.
