Scythe Big Shuriken 3

The Big Shuriken 3 was the best when airflow was unrestricted, and it was closely behind the slightly more expensive L12S, especially the low profile ...

The Big Shuriken 3's is excellent, even by tower cooler standards, while the Shadow Rock LP's is… I'm trying to find a way to put this diplomatically,...

Cos hot air was exhausting through the AIO. The Scythe Big shuriken 3 (BS3) AND the 240 AIO both end up with about 85c in games. So might as well go with the much smaller Scythe. \*\*The only thing you need to do is remove the rubber pads from the corners of the scythe slim fan and it fits perfectly.

The cooler seems well made, instructions are a bit tiny,lol. I have no idea how well it works as it doesn't work with 44mm tall ram from trident. Someone in the questions stated it doesn't overhang the ram, it does, i expected that, but that person is wrong (look at the product pictures). And no the...

Also, downdraft coolers tend to have a price premium over tower coolers. Just look at the price of the be quiet! Shadow Rock LP and TF 2, Scythe Big Shuriken 3, Noctua NH-L 12S, Thermaltake Engine 27, and the larger ones like the Dark Rock TF 2 and Noctua NH-C14S. All in the $45 to $85 range.

I wanted to test this on a 10600k and see how it performed. It was okay at stock speeds. Running at overclocked speeds was not feasible. At stock speeds, temperatures were under 80c. Overclocked to 50x clock and 48x ratio, the system would crash during cinebench r23. I wanted to see if I could get s...

The best low profile cooler, to my knowledge, is Scythe Big Shuriken 3. You may keep the ARGB/ RGB fans for the CPU Cooler.

We used the cooler on a 12600k for an ITX build in the Phanteks Shift 2 Air. The CPU never exceeded 70 C during stress tests, the fan was doing roughly 1600 rpm which was audible in a quiet room but only just, and a pleasant low pitch. During normal use the system is completely silent. Installation ...

I was sent a unit that appears to be used. The box was missing a plastic seal on the cardboard tab and is instead covered in sticky residue. I thought it wasn't a big deal but the unit has a few radiator prongs that are bent and is missing 2 of the bolts I need to attach it.
