Unlike the others Scythe did not add more heat pipes to the cooler to attempt to make it better. The added weight and size as well as an improved fan to aid in a higher performance capacity in the Ninja 2. There are a few more differences we can discuss but we will not be doing it in the introduction of the review. So sit back, relax and read along as we take the Ninja 2 for a little ride.

Is bigger better? Well that probably depends on what we are talking about. Right? Get your mind out of the gutter. Scythe sent us their new Orochi CPU cooler and they made no bones about hiding the bulge. This thing is huge, plain and simple. Scythe has manufactured some fantastic high performance coolers, as well as some respectable bang-for-buck quiet mid-range coolers. This time they set their sights on more size and less noise to try to get respectable performance out of the Orochi. They expect this cooler to be used as a passive cooler (fanless) or with a large nearly silent fan. So back to our original question: Is bigger better? Let's check out this monster and find out.

The key problem for the Ninja Copper lies in the fact that we've already tested ultra low noise coolers like the Noctua NH U12P and ThermalRight Ultra 120 eXtreme, and not only were they very quiet, but both performed brilliantly thermally. When you consider that the Ninja Copper is priced in the same region as these top performers, it becomes impossible to recommend as even a silent cooling solution.

Scythe have produced some insane coolers in the past, most notably perhaps, the Scythe Andy. Oddly named, but whopping in size and surface area. Now though, they've come out with something bigger, badder and hopefully better; the Sycthe Zipang, its monstrous. With 12 copper heatpipes, and what is in essence, two heatsinks, I'm hoping for some awesome temperatures from this one.

The Scythe Orochi is the largest heatsink ever to pass through the Frostytech Labs. It's big: 155mm tall, 120mm wide and a staggering 194mm long. The Orochi contains 10 heatpipes, weighs over a kilo and from afar it looks like an industrial cooling unit. This Intel and AMD heatsink is so large, it should almost require slowly blinking red aircraft anti-collision lights... okay, that's an exaggeration. Scythe made the Orochi heatsink large for a reason, so that it can be paired with a slowly rotating ultra quiet fan to gently move air through the massive heatsinks' fins, or even used passively.

While the CPU Cooler trend of "Bigger is Better" has been debunked by such puny newcomers as the OCZ Vendetta, Scythe carries on it's tradition of mammoth sized coolers with the all copper release of it's popular Ninja line. Featuring an (almost) all copper construction and a breadth to challenge a sumo wrestler, can the Ninja's girth let it push it's way to the top or does the effective new HDT technology mean it's time for a diet? HardwareLogic's got the score to see who wins in the Cooler Battle of the Bulk.

The number one question Frostytech readers ask us is "what's the best silent heatsink?" Much of the time, readers find themselves asking us this question after they've built a media center PC using the standard type of heatsink one normally finds in local computer stores. If you need a silent heatsink, and I do mean silent, the Scythe Zipang (SCZP-1000) is the next best thing to a passive block of aluminum (the only truly silent option). What makes the Zipang quiet is a 138mm wide fan that spins at a lazy 1000RPM.

Recently we tested the Scythe Ninja and Ninja Mini heatsinks for performance, design, and installation. We present to you our results may surprise you. Scythe has taken an unusual approach to heatsink design and combined outside the cube thinking with traditional design to come up with a heatsink that performs well but has issues. Read our review to find out more.

The Japanese manufacturer Scythe has introduced a low profile, sub-70mm tall heatsink for Intel and AMD processors tailor made for low profile computers. If you've got a low profile PC and are looking for that extra cooling edge, this might be just what the doctor ordered. The Scythe Shuriken (SCSK-1000) heatsink features copper heatpipes, high density stacked aluminum fins, a copper base and a low profile 12mm thick 100mm Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) fan.

It seems that the success of one good cooler doesn't keep it on top forever, so all companies must try and produce a successor to these units. And Scythe knows this and got on the job of constructing a new cooler. That new cooler came to be the Zipang. I am still on the lookout on what Zipang means in plain English but when it comes to coolers it means a large 140mm cooling, six heat pipes and multi-processor support. From the looks of the Zipang it just may be a overclocker's best friend. But lets see if the test backs up our early judgment.

The new Ninja, which is simply dubbed as the Ninja Copper or SCNJ-CU1000 for the technical geek, is upon us. The Ninja Cu, as we will call it, is built identically like the older Ninja but made of Copper. Obviously! About 90% of the cooler is made of copper except the bolts that hold the heat pipes in place and the bottom aluminum thick fins that are attached atop the base. And being made of copper it is obvious this cooler will be heavy and it is a whooping 1015 grams of copper. We all know the performance will be there with the Ninja but if you don't act soon you may miss out on getting one as the Ninja Cu is a limit run anniversary model. And we would like to thank Scythe for sending it over to us. Now lets get with the reviewing.
