Is this cooler compatible with my MB and CPU?
Is the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition compatible with MSI B460 TOMAHAWK motherboard and i5 10400 CPU? as i don't see LGA1200 mentioned on the cooler's page.
Thank you.

42 cfm (cubic feet per minute) is very low.
Something like this is much better...

Or even more powerful...
Noctua NH-D15S chromax.black 82.51 CFM CPU Cooler (NH-D15S chromax.black) - PCPartPicker
Both of these will fit the socket and the motherboard.

Here's the one I have. Check the specs. I "added" the 2nd fan myself.

You can still get the original. It's not black, but oh well.

Worry first about the cooling, then about what it looks like.
