With very similar and close to identical type cooler to CM 212 EVO, Later in time i replaced that cooler,(because i need it somewhere else no other reasons) So be aware of this if your are using a 212 cooler on an Intel setup, get you some paper or nylon washers to save yourself future grief. i have deemed this the boards killer as the board will do nothing. What happened in this computer was over time, heat up / cool down, and vibrations had worn the insulation from the mainboards traces and created a series of short circuits on several tracks to the CPU socket. I verified this packaging issue with 212's I keep in stock. The Hyper 212 does not come with paper or nylon washers for use with the Intel mounting option to protect the mainboard from the metal studs. I have narrowed this down to a damaged mainboard caused by CPU cooler vibrations and lack of proper paper or nylon washers to protect the boards tracks from wear. So I disassembled the PC and went through the components and tested each against known working parts via a test rig. They also informed me that the computer would randomly shut down or BSOD and that windows 10 was throwing an out of memory error prior to the final problem that prompted them to bring the machine in. The problem: Customer brought the PC in for repair, No power up, They claimed all they did was move the unit to another room. MSATA - Samsung Evo 850 (500GB System boot)
