“We have reviewed numerous products from Scythe USA in the past and each one of them was somehow unique in its design and the Scythe’s new SCKKR-1000 Kamakiri Heatsink is no exception. Offering a total of six heatpipes cooled in what can best be described as a push-me-pull ventilation system. With this products ability to be used on seven different types of motherboards (Socket: 775 – 478 -754 -940 – 939 – A – 370) it should be one heatsink that allows the users to keep using it over and over again. When test against another major company’s heatpipe style heatsink we found out that not all heatpipe based heatsinks are created equal.”Here are some more Cases & Cooling reviews from around the web:
