Scythe Zipang Review

Introduction

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.

Features

  • Newest Technology – UPHC!
    Newest UPHC (Uneven Parallel Heatpipe Construction) is equipped to maximize the heat dissipation from heatpipe, which eliminates the heat dissipation loss during the heat transfer process.
  • Large Sized Silent 140mm Fan
    Large sized 140mm fan to provide big airflow yet optimization for silent operation!
  • Total 6 Heatpipe for Top Performance
    With total 6 x 6mm diameter heatpipe to provide the top cooling performance!
  • Wide Range Cooling
    Optimized to get its performance from low-rpm to high-rpm to meet the demand from silent users to heavy-core overclockers. All in one solution for your PC system.
