Announced today in Japan and set to become widely available for purchase from 21th February, this is the third new processor cooler coming from Scythe within a month.

There is such a thing as too big, and this is it. 1150g? I think not.

Thats a huge beast!! I wonder if it will fit in my Silverstone case??? Propably not with the fan on top, maybe vertically?? Cant wait for real world results... Nice to see also what kind of mounting kit you get with it?? If gets high score´s by reviewers, this might be my new cooler to replace the old Ultra120 Xtreme.

the 3rd photo in that series would show the mobo going FLIP and disappearing due to the weight of the heatsink throwing it off that box.

Probably comes with some sort of zip tie to suspend it from the top of the case like the Titan Amanda did.

i'd like to see some benchmarks on this to see the cooling performance.

this is a beast!
I dont think its meant to go into cases tho, cause everyone knows at 1150Gs your gonna snap your mobo right in half.

Its meant for OCing competitions, and people that half their PCs built caseless.

Its insane tho! It is as big as that mobo that its on!!!!

there comes a point when one must ask, "is that really necessary?" 1150g is ridiculously asinine, that kind of stress on a motherboard is not good; i'd be surprised if this ever actually makes it to shelves.

Someone has been looking too much of photoshopped cpu coolers and though 'hey, let's make one and the joke is on them!' :D

That's like Unicron of the Transformers, mass so big that other cpu coolers orbit around it!

I think it should come with two solid iron fans in a push-pull configuration, because in all honesty it's not really heavy enough yet. :rolleyes:

These things are going to open a whole new niche market for case installed "cooler cranes".
Pretty soon it's going to take more than one person to lift the mobo to install it. :roll:
