  • Summary: Works nicely. Good price. It was a bit of a pain to install on my Asus motherboard as the cooler's backplate had to balance on some bolt on the motherboard.
  • Pros: Good price. Performs nicely. Doesn't block the P4 power connector like my old scythe ninja 2 did.
  • Cons: Was a bit of a pain to install on my Asus P8Z77-V LK motherboard

  • Summary: I used to own a Scythe Ninja heatsink, which was massive and made it nearly impossible to work with my motherboard once it was mounted to the case.
  • Pros: Keeps my i5-3570k very cool even when overclocked, For it's size, it does a very good job
  • Cons: none so far
