The overall installation process was very quick, provided you are able to overcome the irritating backplate installation procedure. The cooler is able to rotate by quite a large degree due to the minimalistic ‘clamping’ method Cooler Master use which loosely secures the retention plate in place. Security isn’t a particularly strong point for the Hyper 212 EVO’s installation. Once the retention plate is pushed through the cooler’s central gap and configured for the correct socket, you simply screw its spring-loaded screws into the 4 stand-offs. This doesn’t sound particularly challenging, but the fact that the stand-offs would barely pass through the backplate’s seemingly mis-shaped holes made it difficult. The method forces you to insert stand-offs from the CPU side through the mounting holes and then on through the backplate before securing them with a nut. Attaching the universal backplate to our LGA 1155 motherboard was slightly more frustrating than usual.
