That is exactly what it is, just on a ridiculously larger scale.

nice, this might be the best air cooling ever made.....or it could be a big flop like the infinity was.

The Infinity is a good cooler--fin density could be a bit different and mounting was a PITA (I wanted a bolt-thru design as well), but S-FLEX F never goes about 1100RPM. Very efficient cooler for what I was doing, plus was priced $10-$20 less than a True 120 or Ultra 120.

That cooler is insane!...the mobo would probably bend with the weight.

[Bobsama]

Only thing I'd like to state is that's a mATX board--not an ATX board. The cooler will look very different with an ATX board. Still gigantic, though.

Well, one thing is for certain it has everybody talking about it now. Now it's a case of put up or shut up and if it does not deliver then it will be held against Scythe for a long time to come. So risky move by them.

Looks like a huge version of the Gemini II. I dont know if I like the height figure. 155mm, is that without a fan? If a fan is to be added, its 180mm, not alot of cases can take something that tall (I hope that 155mm is with the fan included). TRUE just gets by, and its 161mm (or one sixty something), and its too close to the edge. I think its best for this to be passive.

is it just me or is Scythe literally making their heatsinks bigger & heavier...?

They're going smaller and bigger, and better, or so it seems.

given the size it isn't very impressive, washer mod + extra fan on the TRUE and that minor advantage is gone.

Hopefully someone here with a TRUE, multiple fans and lots of time to test can really show us some good results

[StyM]

that's huge...
