Hi, I do like the look of this HSF, but to be honest I am scared of the weight

960g ! ! ! :eek:

Fair enough if your using it with a desktop case where its weight is being forced down directly onto the cpu but using it in a tower case where it mounts at an angle. . . that's risky right?

Didn't INTEL/AMD or some other *body* specify a maximum weight for heatsinks?

I think initially everyone thought the Infinity would be better, but except for very high airflow its not so i hope scythe will realise that the infinity won't be very popular and start shipping ninjas again, if they aren't already.

The 'Scythe Mine' is also very good...

There are plenty of equally good alternatives if you can't wait for the Ninja
