Scythe Intros Big Shuriken 3 Rev B CPU Cooler



Scythe today introduced the Big Shuriken 3 Rev B top-flow CPU cooler. Essentially a revision of the Big Shuriken 3 from 2019, with the heatsink design being unchanged, the new Rev B comes with an updated fan, the new Kaze Flex II Slim 120 with a redesigned metal shroud, a small tube of the new Thermal Elixir 2 TIM, and out-of-the-box support for Intel Socket LGA1700.

The new included Kaze Flex II Slim is a 15 mm-thick 120 mm fan which takes in 4-pin PWM input, turns between 300 to 1,800 RPM, pushing between 8 to 48 CFM of airflow, at up to 1.360 mm H?O static pressure. Its maximum noise output is rated at 27.8 dBA. The Thermal Elixir 2 TIM offers 3.5 W/mK conductivity, and is an aluminium-zinc based compound, with zero burn-in time needed.
