MADman Movies presents: Scythe Contest - Ninja vs The A-Team

Cooling/CPU Cooling by jmke @ 2007-05-30

In cooperation with Scythe the Madshrimps are organizing a MAD give-away of five Mine CPU Coolers. We´re not only giving them away, be will come by personally to deliver them and report back with the temperature and noise results. MAD Movie coming your way!

Putting the results together in a chart

Cumulative Temperature/Noise Results

Madshrimps (c)

While the Scythe Mine’s 100mm fan is quite silent even at 12v it did not benefit the new owners as much as expected, CPU temperatures definitely dropped remarkably but the main source of noise is not the CPU cooler to begin with.

We hope you enjoyed our coverage of this Scythe product and like to see you again for our next give-away contest ;-)

i'm guessing that quickly installing the stock HS doesnt count?

Comment from jmke @ 2006/12/21

wouldn't be fair to those who only have stock cooling

Comment from SuAside @ 2006/12/21

Comment from wutske @ 2006/12/21

too bad it doesn't fit on socket A

. I realy need money for a new pc + laptop

Comment from SAMSAMHA @ 2006/12/22

it's true. I guess finally Belguin people got something cool and that's not chocolate

Comment from Rutar @ 2006/12/22

Since you have such good connections with Scythe, could you aks them if they have thought about supplying more mounting clips for the Ninia and Infinity so dual 120 setups would be possible?

it could be decicive vs Thermalrights new cooler that takes 2 120mm fans in a XP-120 like setup

It was really nice to have JMke over here to install the cooler, cant wait to see the video-stuff etc. I do have to tell that when i closed my case the noise level dropped some more

(its stijn here ^^)

Comment from jmke @ 2007/03/11

open cases never were very good in stopping noise

Comment from jmke @ 2007/05/13
