I don't feel safe with the idea of watercooling so i had to buy an aircooler obviously but my choices were limited to hyper 212x, hyper 412 or 612 v2 so i bought 612 v2 thinking that it will handle higher tdp cpus and will have great support for HEDT platforms in the future.
What confuses me is that 212 varients are now shipped with am4 bracket AND have support for TR4(why? XD) while 612 v2 am4 bracket needs to be ordered separately and it doesn't have any support for TR4 yet.

on their website it says that 612 v2 and 212 both have 150w cooling capacity and dual fan 212 have 160w cooling capacity(does that even makes sense?)
Shouldn't the bigger cooler have more cooling capability than smaller one?
Why did they even add TR4 support to 212? can it even cool it properly?
Will i get support for newer sockets in future for my 612 v2? since all the attention goes straight to 212.
BTW shipment for am4 bracket is costing 28$ and this cooler costed me 54$ so should i just buy a different cooler or pay 28$ for the bracket?
