Scythe Fuma Review

A Closer Look »

Packaging


The Fuma comes in a box that measures in at roughly 16.8 cm long, 14.6 cm wide, and 15.8 cm high. On the front, you will find an image of, well, for the lack of a better term, smoke. Part of me thinks the Fuma should be named after the famous ninja Kotaro Fuma considering the smoke-like image on the front of the box. Instead, Fuma translates into immortality, which is also cool, I guess. Considering Scythe's use of Japanese history and famous images, e.g. Samurai on the Kabuto 3 box, I like my idea better. Okay, enough off-topic prattling. The left side details the cooler's specifications in various languages and has technical diagrams showing the cooler's size. Moving to the back, we find the warranty information for various regions in a multitude of different languages.


On the right side is a list of the cooler's various features, such as its twin tower design and optional triple-fan capabilities. It's on the box's top that you can finally see what the cooler looks like.

Scythe's Fuma comes packaged in a thin layer of cardboard inside the box. Honestly, the protection for the product is pretty much nonexistent. I would have liked to see some foam or a bit more space around the product for protection during shipping. Still, for a box designed to hang on a shelf, I suppose it helps to keep costs down.


The Fuma makes use of a high precision mounting system for a simple installation on most of today's CPU sockets. Everything needed is included.

Common parts supplied for mounting include:
  • 6x Fan clips
  • 4x Stud nuts A
  • 4x Stud nuts B
  • 4x Washers
  • 4x Small screws
  • 2x Fans
  • 2x Mounting bar screws
  • 2x Mounting arms
  • 1x Backplate
  • 1x Mounting bar
  • 1x Installation manual
  • 1x Rubber 775 spacer
  • 1x Tube of thermal compound
  • 1x Wrench
  • 1x Y-cable
  • 1x Heatsink
