Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO

Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO review

Apart from the new fan, the other major change with the Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo is that this latest version doesn't support the oldest AMD Sockets; 754, 939 and 940 have dropped off the list. It will support every AMD socket up from them with all Intel sockets from the 775 up to, and including LGA 1155 are also supported. The cooler comes with a 92mm fan attached but should you require more cooling then Cooler Master includes mounts in the box for a second 92mm fan. The fan mounts are made of plastic and look rather like the fan mounts you find in some PC cases. This makes a nice change from the usual sprung wire mounts, often a source of irritation when it comes to sticking the fan on the cooler. Performance-wise the Evo keeps up the family tradition by offering very good result at a very keen price point. Although it's not quite as efficient as some of its more expensive rivals when it comes to keeping the CPU cool when worked hard or overclocked
