I have this motherboard, but I want to buy the Cooler Master 212 EVO CPU cooler, is it supported by this motherboard?

I'm about 95% sure it is supported. I had a Cooler Master Hyper N520 attached with no problems.

The cpu cooler specifics will have its compatibilities, but I use the the 212 and it worked, but it also came with different hookups for different chipsets.

Yeah, but an after market heatsink is recommended. I bought the Cooler Master Seidon 120v for it.

Yes both will fit into the case just fine I run a coolermaster hyper 212 Evo and ATX motherboard and I had no problem fitting both in the case

I have an ASUS Z87PRO with Intel i7 processor and have affixed the Hyper 212 EVO on top as the CPU cooler with no problems. The Hyper 212 EVO can use one or two 120mm fans to cool it. Mine came with 1 fan that I placed to the right of the cooler (if you're looking at it) and it draws air in and pushes it towards the back fan. I bought 2 120mm fans for the front of the case that suck in air and then the Hyper 212 EVO pulls the air through and send it out the case via the rear 120mm fan. It is VERY tight in regards to my memory slots (I have Kingston Hyper RAM) but fits. The fins on the RAM add a bit of width to the memory sticks but it does fit. If you have normal memory with no fins you'll be fine. I guess it depends on your motherboard and the placement of the CPU and memory slots. I bet the engineers thought this out and it would be fine with almost every configuration. Do a quick Google search with you motherboard model and the use of the Hyper 212 EVO if you're a bit hesitant. Long story short: It worked for me. I've added a picture just in case (not the clearest image but note the memory to the right of the cooler and note the space between it and the rear fan if you're thinking of installing a second fan for pull-push).

Yes it is compatible with that motherboard.Visit pcpartpicker.com to find out compatible pc parts for your pc build.

Yes, Although I would highly not recommend using the stock. You're going to want to overclock by at least .2 Ghz if you get this processor. This type of processor is the best for overclocking. I've been using a Cooler Master 212 EVO for quite some time now and been running like a dream. I can run at about 77% CPU under heavy loads (Like starting up a development library), but not for long. I've bench-marked and stress tested this processor and compared the cooling data and I think I can fairly say that the 212 EVO is exponentially better than the stock fan, especially when using two fans instead of the one that comes in the box.

Yes, it is compatible with your motherboard I checked PcPartpicker.com. I don't know what kind of cpu you have but, check the compatibility on pcpartpicker.com.

Yes it compatible with all FX series processors and motherboards. Excellent cooler for the money!!!

I have no idea how big an EVO CPU cooler is. The memory has the standard footprint (Length & Height). Do a fit check with standard DDR-3 RAM. You should be able to borrow a stick from another computer. Then check the tech data and photo before you order.

Check the motherboard page first to see what bios version supports this processor (http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=4658) . Water cooling is not necessary but you have to use a top of the line air cooler.

yes, but best buy a coolermaster 212 or hidro for better performance overclock to 4.1 - 4.3 - 4.7 ghz

Quick answer is no. That motherboard is an AM2 CPU socket while this CPU is FM2. If you already own that motherboard search for AM2 socket CPU's and find something that fits your needs. I selected my parts using www(dot)pcpartpicker(dot)com. Compatibility is easier to figure out that way.

I'm not sure about the Hyper 212 EVO, but I doubt it will work with Corsair Vengeance memory because of it's weird frilly heatsink. I have a Noctua NH-L12 which restricts two of the memory slots to low-profile memory. I ended up putting low-profile memory in all 4 slots, which works fine.

What the responder said Am3+ is fine. Look at the details on the coolers the block compatibility shows what types of motherboards are good.

Hi Mario, it should fit with no issue. I am currently using a NH-D14 heatsink in mine with plenty of clearance, which is larger than the Hyper 212 EVO.

Yes, the CM Hyper 212 Evo is compatible with FM2+. Check the page http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/cpu-air-cooler/hyper-212-evo/ for CPU Socket compatibility specifications.

I checked the Intel site and it that board does not appear to support that processor check http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/sb/cs-012668.htm
