Katana II (SCKTN-2000)   Kama Cross (SCKC-1000)   Technical characteristics Scythe coolers Katana II (SCKTN-2000) Kama cross (SCKC-1000) Cooler Dimensions , (fan), mm 105 X 82 X 149 (100 x 100 x 25) 140 x 120 x 132 (100 x 100 x 25)   aluminum, 3 copper thermal tube aluminum, X structure, 3 copper thermal tube Fan rotation Speed , rp/min ~1500 (±10) Air flow, CFM ~ 42.69 Noise Level , DB] ~ 22.00 Compatible Sockets  Socket 478, LGA 775, Socket 754/939/940, Socket AM2 Cooler Weight , grams 535 530 Additionally Thermal-paste silMore, possibility to install any fan with thickness 25 mm Thermo-paste silMore, possibility to install 120- mm fan Recommended cost, US dollars 32.0 39.8   To test those cooling systems we used the following configuration: Motherboard: ASUSTek P5B deluxe/wiFi-AP (Intel p965), LGA 775, BIOS 1101; Chipset Cooling : Thermaltake extreme spirit II (~2500 r/min); Processor: Intel core 2 Quad q6600 2400 MHz, 1.2875 in, L2 2 X 4096 KB, FSB: 266 MHz x 4, (Kentsfield, B3); Video card: Sysconn geForce 8600 GTS 256 mb/128 bits, 675/2016 MHz; Video card Cooling system : Arctic cooling accelero S2 (passive regime); Memory: 2 x 1024 mb. DDR2 corsair dominator TWIN2X2048-9136C5D (SPD: 1142 MHz, 5-5-5-18, 2.1 v); Hard Disk : SATA- II 320 Gb, Hitachi (HDT725032VLA360), 7200 rp/min, 16 mb., NCQ; . The processor overclock was limited by the effectiveness of weakest cooler model. As result the four core processor was overclocked to 3213 MHz (+ 33.9%) with 1.45 v vcore : CPU heat up phase was achieved with OCCT (OverClock checking tool) version 1.1.0 with 25- minute period . Let us note that TAT program result in higher processor temperature ( average 4-5 degrees higher than OCCT ); however, at higher frequency OCCT result on error while TAT under the same conditions continues to work without problem. Here is the obtained result : Unfortunately, new cooler do not demonstrate a worthy effectiveness. Scythe katana II although lose 9 degrees vs cheaper cooler master hyper TX. Let us note that the noise level  in Katana II is noticeably lower than in Hyper TX . Scythe kama cross, in spite of increased overall sizes and higher cost ( than in Katana II ) do not show any worthy performance.  We assumed that the contact between the cooler base and processor heat-distributor was bad , but here is the result obtained after the cooler removal : So  in the standard assembly with closed case , scythe kama cross is not able to cool the overclocked four core processor . The replacement of fan with 120- mm increases its cooling efficiency, but the results still far from Thermaltake big typhoon witch has the same price. Let us now pass to the noise level , here is the obtained results: We note a low noise level of all tested today cooler .   Related Products :
