120mm x 194mm x 155mm (height)
140mm x 25mm fan, 500rpm (12cm mounting holes)
weight 1155g + 130g fan

Thats a lot of heatpipes

 

[Minstadave]

Insane but don't like the base at all, the double rows of heatpipes looks like not much heat would be conducted to the second set of pipes.

 

[Goldfingers]

Ridiculous e-peen extender - nothing more.

 

[Sgt_Pepper]

Its Big but not this BIG

 

[Raikiri]

Checkmate.

 

[Grimley]

WOAH!

how the devil do they expect people to mount that in a ATX case
1.3KG - like to see how someone will mount that on their mobo & then turn it sideways.

 

[Wiggins]

Next thing will be mobo manufacturers making boards 1 inch thick to take these humongous things.

 

[Andrew G]

I would like to see that installed in a case and then timed to see how many seconds maybe minutes it would take to pull the mobo apart

 

[IAmATeaf]

With a fan on top it'd never fit in my case and I'd suspect a lot of other cases.

 

[Senture]

I think that will fit in my V2000, just!

Hell at least it would cool the GPU, NB and SB all in 1!

 

[BillytheImpaler]

I wondered who was going to be the first to bring this one out:

Turns out it was me.

 

[Ben M]

the fan is facing the mobo...

that's an airflow nightmare.

They usually are unless it's a tower, it cools the memory/PWMs etc.

Ok thats getting a little silly now

Still is

 

[square_imp]

still think the new coolermaster coolers (V10 etc) look the best.

It's meant to be a decent cooler though I guess? Unless it's just a gimmick. Either way it'd be pants.

 

[Cyber-Mav]

Its Big but not this BIG

how the heck does that thing only mount using the clip on method?

also any reviews to the Scythe Orochi?

 

[Dead Dog]

I not no pics of one in a case WITH the side on

 

[Arcane]

Any updates on this?
