Hi, I just want to confirm that the hyper 212+ will work with the asus m5a97 le r2.0 motherboard. Or will I have to buy the hyper 212 evo?
They both say they support am3+.
I already have the 212+.
Thanks.

If it states it'll support it, then it will. Motherboards can not change layouts for the cooling in specified sockets because they have to accommodate the stock coolers with that socket CPU.
So LGA 1150, 55, 56 have the same mounting hardware but that's intel.
AM3 and AM3+ also have the same cooling layout.
So if you see AM3 or AM3+ compatible coolers, then it will fit. The thing you have to look at now is dimensions, will it fit in your closed case?
The 212 is relatively small so it will 99% of the time.
