I haven't seen this yet, but the Infinity would be awsome with a high-speed Delta or Vantec Tornado with fan control, would probably beat the Tuniq.

Scythe is not a heatsink for high airflow like a thermalright Ultra-120.

What is that supposed to mean? All heatsinks show improvement with high airflow, however some heatsinks happen to work very well with low airflow while others lose alot more performance potential with low airflow. The Infinity is not as well suited to really low airflow as the Ninja for example. The Thermalright XP-90C can match or beat the Ninja but only with really high airflow. I don't recall the details on the Ultra-120, but it's one of the best with decent airflow.

Thats not an option for me. and high cfm for the infinity proves well in my personal tests.......

thats a good idea, ill probably try it when i get the infinity in couple days,

i might make a mini review with a couple different 120mm fans, on it, i have the Cooler master 1200rpm one (40 and a few cfm), will have the stock infinity (also 40 something cfm), a sharkoon 56cfm (believe they are made by Globe) and if i can fit it a Adda with over 100cfm and also a Panaflow M1 (witch sux it vibrates like hell)

BTW, Panaflo do not exist anymore, the company NMB purchased Panaflo. But it still the same quality.

AzraelD, some heatsink works way better with high air flow than others. It's a matters of how the fins are oriented and spaced. With high air flow some heatsinks give way better results.

their quality control droped alot, its kind of know about some of them like M! that some are goog and some bad, like mine, i can actualy feel it on my case how it vibrates, at different voltages its less but it does it
