What customers say about "Features"
Scythe SCNJ-5000 Air CPU Cooler
  • Its almost silent. The fans run slow, which helps noise.
  • Amazing cooling and whisper quiet. Would recommend.
  • Low noise, low temps. I recommend it.
  • Quiet, large and cool. Fit on my x570 motherboard.
  • Fans are extremely quiet (I believe they have a max RPM of 800).
Scythe SCMG-5100 CPU Air Cooler
  • The fan is quiet and makes no noise idle.
  • Sure you can replace the included FaZe fans with higher RPM, but the noise level is perfect.
  • There easier to maintain (clean) then twin tower designs. The noise floor was fantastic.
  • Noise level is superb. Huge upgrade from my stock cooler.
  • Keeps my unoverclock ryzen 2600 30c idle and Max 50c during gaming. Really quiet.
