Cooler Master Hyper TX3 and N620 Review
Cooler Master Hyper N620
Design
The Hyper N620 is positioned in the price category of high-end air cooling and it definitely fits the bill. With 6 copper heatpipes at the heart of numerous aluminum fins and a dual fan push-pull configuration by default, the Hyper N620 is a mean cooling machine. It is nice to see that the fans come pre-assembled so no tampering is necessary, unlike the Hyper TX3.

Installation
The installation process for the Hyper N620 was a bit more tedious than that of its smaller brother; not overbearing, just that there was more to do. This installation included mounting a backplate on the back of the motherboard. This is to help distribute the weight of the cooler and to ease the pressure that it places on your motherboard.

Anti-vibrations pads (some of which are also on the pre-installed fans) are placed under the screw heads on the front side, while nuts were used on the back side to tighten the cooler down. The necessary tool for the job was provided in the package. This allowed for the tightening of these hex nuts with a regular screwdriver.

It was not a difficult task to get done. However, I do think that the mounting screws could be made just a tad longer and the hex nuts a bit thicker. This would have made for an easier job at the back, securing the cooler.

When installed and running, the cooler boasts some nice, subtle blue LED lighting on both fans.
