Cooler Master Hyper 103 Essential CPU Air cooler for all Intel
The Cooler Master Hyper 103 is an affordable mainstream heatsink delivering great cooling performance on all modern platforms thanks to the special fin design with Cooler Master exclusive X-Vent and Air-Guide technology that optimize air flow toward heat pipes. The Hyper 103’s 92mm PWM fan features a wide fan speed range and can be fine tuned for maximum airflow and cooling performance or silent operation. The low profile tower heatsink is a great match for small form factor system. Cooler Master exclusive X-Vent and Air-Guide technology optimize the air flow toward heat pipes and ultimately reduce CPU temperature. 3 direct contact heat pipes with stylish aluminum fins to provide excellent heat dissipation. 92mm wide range PWM blue LED fan, rpm can be fine tuned for maximum airflow or whisper quiet operation. New tool-free mounting system for trouble-less installation.

Heatsink:
Cooler Master Hyper 103 is a cooler featuring a heat-sink with dimensions of 108 x 89.5 x 138.5 mm and overall weight of 580g including the fan, which makes it a very small, compatible and very affordable mainstream product. The cooler itself is made of copper and aluminum parts forming a pretty standard structure featuring: an aluminum contact plate, 3 x Ø6mm U-shaped heat-pipes with direct contact to the processor and aluminum fins.
Hyper 103 ′s contact surface features an aluminum plate with dimensions of 76.4 x 36 mm shaped as radiator on the top side made to hold the 3 x Ø6mm, U-shaped, pure copper heat-pipes with direct contact to the processor. All of the pipes are soldiered together to the aluminum plate ensuring very tight and rigid structure and the best thermal conducting from the processor to the fins. And here is something which I want to point out. All 3 heatpipes are slightly bent to the back of the cooler, ensuring that when the cooler together with the fan is installed it won’t block any of the memory slots.
The fan is PWM powered and regulated using a non-sleeved not very long cable and connector.
The fan should be attached to the heatsink via 2 plastic brackets, which came pre-installed. Of course, the plastic brackets feature rubber dumpers for reducing the vibrations of the fan if there are any. Unfortunately, the shape of the aluminum fins stack of the model doesn’t allow a second fan to be installed and boost the overall performance of the product.
The third major part, which I actually believe is the most important one, are the mounting brackets for installing the cooler and according to the official technical details and my pictures above, Cooler Master Hyper 103 is supplied with mounting kits suitable to be used with:
And this is what the heatsink looks like with the brackets attached to the contact plate.
I believe with this the cooler is ready to be installed on the motherboard.
