Scythe is announcing today a new High-End TOP-Flow CPU Cooler by the name “Grand Kama Crossâ€, which is the successor of former Kama Cross CPU Cooler.

Grand Kama Cross is based on an X Structure layout using total of four 8 mm copper heatpipes for fast transfer of heat from the copper base to the aluminum fins. Thanks to the X Structure Design, easier mounting on CPU sockets as well as higher compatibility to tall RAM and Northbridge coolers are accomplished.

It looks like Bartmasta designed that. It's literally trolling me the more I look at it.

Ewwww.

IMO - The use of screws to secure a fan is pretty outdated. It is a top down design - couldn't they have used some sort of clip system at least?

Have it turned one way, it will blow heat down left on the VRM's & to the right on the ram.
Turn it the other way it will blow heat down on the top mobo VRM's & bottom on the northbridge.

Then the heat recycles through the pc till exited.

This HS makes no sense.
GoodEnough.

I hate up front coolers.

I like to see the top of a shiny HS.

Scythe always seems to be more about novelty and looks than it does about function.

Give me Megahalems or an H50 please.
