    New CPU HSF

    I ordered myself a new CPU cooler from ebuyer a couple of days ago, and it arrived today. It's a Scythe Mine, link http://www.scythe-usa.com/product/cpu/025/scmn1100.html

    Pre-upgrade with stock stats:

    Ambient 22°C
    0% Load
    ~1200rpm, 38°C
    100% Load
    ~1980rpm, 52°

    Post-upgrade:

    Ambient 23°C
    0% CPU

    100% CPU

    This thing is HUGE though. Install pics to come once I find my 'phone USB lead.

    New CPU HSF

    I would be curious as to how much it weighs? Looks like a beast !





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.

    I should have weighed it. My bad. It's actually NOT that much heavier than stock, but you need a wide case.

    problem is, with those fans, you wouldnt be able to hear my thx speakersystem running full tilt anymore

    the scythes I have here (60 something cfm) are not quiet, but they're at least beareable
