...There's a little flag on the left menu to translate to english.

Seems to do quite well!

Any chance of OcUK getting these?

By the sounds of it not only will it beat the Ninja, but it may also beat the Thermalright Ultra 120 and Tuniq Tower which both beat the Ninja.

That looks really mean! I will probably be ditching my Arctic freezer 7 in the future and getting on of these! I was going to get a scythe ninja but ocuk were out of stock when i ordered

No way did that thing do 23c under 100% load for 30 mins!

Still it's heavy 930kg!

930g surely?

Joe42 · 11 Aug 2006 at 15:25

Nearly a kg. Very heavy.
If i got one i wouldn't hang a fan off it, considering i use 38mm panaflo fans that weigh something like 250g on their own. I would have to find a way to mount the fan from the case.

Agreed, but it may have been close. Got an X2 3800+ here thats doing 25 idle on a heatpipe stock cooler.

...23c delta

That means the diference between the ambient temp, btw

wow looks sweet as but a tad on the heavy side and with a fan = broken motherboard methinks

mi9tchy · 12 Aug 2006 at 19:28

i want spcr to review it, they do it with quiet fans not delta

They are doing a review of the infinity which they will hopefully compare with the ninja and ultra 120. But as you say, not much use with a nexus quiet fan with a whopping 37cfm and no air pressure.

They used a 1200rpm 45cfm scythe s-flex fan that comes with the cooler not a delta.

Phwa, as nice as it looks, and the decent cooling job its probably capable of, I think having over 1KG of cooler hanging from my motherboard would make my stomach churn...

Awaiting a decent review/comments though
