    Any graphs would help (Pictures are greater than words)

    Also I'd like to add in the Thermaltake Ultra 120a into this equation.

    Re: Scythe Shootout. Scythe Ninja II vs Scythe Kama Angle

    Not heard of the Kama angle being all that good tbh.. I have a ninja II though and while being quite huge the performance is great and the noise for the fan is essentially inaudible.

    Still, a xigmatec tower will probably outperform it with the same fan, will be lighter and take up less room, shame they have put the price up on them so much.

    I always buy scythe for some reason, I hope to not next time I build.. but I probably will lol

    the thing I've always wanted to know is why Scythe stoped making the mine, it was a great cooler.

    Sounds good, I think I'd stick to what I know having used a Xigmatek (not mine), but the review is good.

    I must say, the bend on the picture is a little cringe worthy IMHO. I am sure it'll be 'fine', but still.

    I've gone with the TRUE, which is as good if not better unless you go passive, and was easy to fit.

    Xigmatek HTD
    or
