Scythe Infinity is dead ~ Long Life The "Mugen"

@ 2007/08/07
Scythe Co., Ltd (Tokyo, Japan) announces the change of the product name for its high-end CPU cooler, "Infinity CPU Cooler" to the following new name:

Former Name: "Infinity CPU Cooler"
New Name: "Mugen CPU Cooler"

The word "Mugen" means "Infinity" in Japanese language. Due to the integration as well as the corporate image of "Scythe" as the Japanese manufacturer of unique PC parts, we have determined that it is better to focus on the product name to represent the country as well as the Japanese spirit into the product. Furthermore, the fan comes with the new "Mugen CPU Cooler" is now originally developed by Scythe company to have more airflow without sacrificing in the noise level, and this change resulted in the increased performance overall. Furthermore, the total weight of the CPU cooler with fan is less 30g by integrating this newly developed fan.

Code:
Model Name: Mugen CPU Cooler Model Number: SCINF-1000 Manufacturer: Scythe Co., Ltd.

Yeah, if you can get all 4 down completely in the first place. I was building a non-overclocked C2D system for a buddy and I ending up saying screw it as temps under TAT were reasonable. Thought I was gonna crack the mobo if I pushed down any harder.
