IT'S SOOOOO CUTE!!!!

I still prefer Ninja for my case coz the height fits just nicely in my case (pun intended). Maximum area use.

If they still use a 120mm fan then I'm gonna roflmao, coz they haven't solve the issue of case clearence yet.

I wonder what's the height of this:

Lets hope the VTMS mounting system orients it the right way.

I count 16 cooling fins on the uNinja, vs 23 on the standard.

And (sigh), it's obvious that the Infinity will blow air into the PSU, not the exhaust fan, on 98% of the K8/AM2 mobos. So 98% of the K8/AM2 folk will stay with the Mine, if not the Ninja.

Would be interesting if it will fit antec fusion series cases and how it performs. Could be a winner.

All they needed to do was lower the Scythe Ninja by ~1cm and it'd fit in most mATX cases. Bundle it with their 10cm fan and the necessary mounting clips and it'd be perfect. Well, almost.

In my case the Ninja itself could fit snuggly, but not with the fan :/ , and my mainboard needs a CPU fan to boot,

So I had to do this:

Although this isn't really necessary since the fan is not turning 99.98% of the time with a Venice @ 1.1V (I can just place it anywhere), but I did it for the 0.02% of the time. :/

wwenze If you don't really need that fan, why not take it out and plug your case fan to the CPU fan header. This should solve your boot issue and keep the Ninja clear.

Just my 2 cent.

Why? You can hang the fan on any side, atleast it looks like that.

First, the Infinity is not square (which the Ninja is), so there isn't room for the fan on the other 2 sides. Second, what at first glance are fan-mount hooks for the fan wire are in fact the termination of the shorter fins - not all the fins on the Infinity run the full width.

rofl i just visited hardwarezone website and it has more ads than the actual content. Talk about bloat.

Sorry if this is thread hijacking(or repost), but the title was not exclusively entitled "Scythe"

MSI showed 2 "passively cooled" Intel Core 2 Duo E6700(2.66Ghz) platform with small all copper flower heatsink with 2 heatpipe, only employed one 120mm fan (dunno bout the rpm

)

Ops, my bad. I thought you where refering to the Ninja Micro. I was just out of bed

But I think it might be possibly that you can have the fan any side. Look closely there seems to be an edge for fan-hooks. At the lowerst fin at the front.
Might be the photo tho

The infinity is interesting, part of it which receives the highest pressure from the fan has a higher fin density, the rest is about the same as Ninja. This would give it much better efficiency when used with a fan (blows into dense fins but comes out easily), I wouldn't be surprised if it beats a Ninja Plus.

OMG, Copper NCU.

And I've been asking in HWZ what this heatsink is but got no answer...
And yes, HWZ is damn marketed (to coin a term), distributors pay to speak in forum and advertise their products like analysists/reviewers.

Here's another picture of that behemoth, installed on a MSI motherboard.
