Remaining in disguise, our product for this review sneakily made its way to our office in Calgary, Alberta, Canada from Chino, California, United States through UPS Standard ground service inside one of Cooler Master's computer case shipping packages. Upon opening it, there was no case to be found, but rather it contained today's review unit of the Hyper 212 Pro alongside the Cooler Master Hyper 612 Apex, SickleFlow Edge 360 White edition, and MasterLiquid Core II 360 White. The Hyper 212 Pro packaging was delivered to us in excellent condition with no noticeable damage.

Among all the Cooler Master products delivered together here, the Hyper 212 Pro has the most going on with its packaging design. At the top, there is a purple-blue gradient bar with the words "Cooler" and "Master" printed diagonally in evenly spaced intervals. Below that, to the left, is a rectangular zone with a blue-pink gradient and the "Cooler Master" name printed again. The Cooler Master logo is also drawn in this zone, but it is being covered by the large image of the Hyper 212 Pro at the center of the packaging. Moving lower, there is another rectangular section with a purple and pink stripe pattern littered with blue paint splat-like marks. More stripe patterns using the same blue and pink diagonal patterns can be found on the top right and near the bottom right of the packaging. The product name is printed on the bottom left corner, while another Cooler Master logo can be found on the bottom right. Similar to the bar at the top, there is a bar at the bottom using the same purple-blue gradient. The bright colors scattered throughout the packaging gives it an overall very playful vibe.

Pulling from Cooler Master's website, we have the following specifications:
