Automatic regulation
The fourth Ninja was a pleasant surprise (mainly because of its unattractive predecessor). Scythe used improved version of the first two designs, and shortly after created popular Fuma series based on Ninja 4. Fuma rev. A was the best deal for the money, although the current second version is a bit different story. Now there’s the new Ninja 5 that looks very promising. The core remains unchanged, but the cooler is bigger and stronger than before.

Hi !
Thank you for the test. I like your methodology of testing.
Can you use the therlmaright le grand macho rt ? Which is probrably the best cpu cooler
The noctua scythe fan graph is interesting I’d like to see temperatures and db comparing the included scythe fan vs a noctua.
i bet if you got better fans this thing would kick ass!
A passive or semi-passive setup for comparison with the Fuma or Zalman Passive Cooler would be great.
