Scythe Readies Susano and Yasya Cu CPU Coolers
Scythe showed off prototypes of two of its creations for the season, the Scythe Susano and Yasya Cu CPU coolers. The Susano is one of Scythe's biggest CPU coolers. Its vast aluminum fin array covers the entire upper half of the average ATX motherboard. Its design involves a heatsink-turned CPU block, from which six copper heat pipes pass. These heat pipes convey heat to a large, roughly-square aluiminum fin array on which are latched four 120 mm fans. These blow air through the aluminum fin block, and onto several parts of the motherboard, including memory, northbridge and CPU VRM. The Yasya Cu is a slightly more in tune with the times. It is a copper-based variant of the Yasya CPU cooler. It uses the tried and tested tower design, and makes use of copper fins with a turbulent shape. Heat is conveyed to these fins using six copper heat pipes. Scythe did not give out a release date for these coolers.

Its not out either.
( so mentioning its a variant of the yasya is a moot point, since unless people looked at the other scythe thread they wouldn't know what it is)
Not at all :laugh:
The gas in heatpipes moves at the speed of sound!
Long heatpipes get the heat further away from the CPU quicker.
The best coolers I've owned have HUGE long heatpipes.
Why does having longer heatpipes effect cooling negatively?
Mind you, that may not be because of the heatpipes...
Edit:Nevermind. :slap:
As I said if you have a good heatpipe the gas moves at the speed of sound on the inside, basically it means your heat is distributed over the entire length of the pipe, the longer the pipe the better.
but of course you need more then just long heat-pipes to make a good cooler :p
Wait for the numbers before asking why not get x other product : ]
I know what you mean about comparisons, but the price/performance ratio is also part of the decision making process... free doesn't mean great and neither does really expensive...
I mean to say it could be £50 and completely blow away the competition, when I say numbers I mean thermal results and cost : ]
Although I imagine it won't be released due to the size, its simply to much hassle installing such a cooler for the majority of people.
Personally I would like to give it a go, would fit in my case, I wouldn't be happy having it unsupported though, I would tie wire to the heatpipes and attach the wires to my psu rails.
If scythe were to make this cooler public I hope to hell it comes supplied with scythe ninja wire!
Or some sort of insane backplate XD
he he wasn't an actual educated guess, more pulling numbers out my ass as a quick example.

The Yasya is probably not going to perform that well for its size. The Scythe Orochi and the Cooler Master GeminiII borrowed the same idea: huge, lots of heatpipes, but lacking performance versus smaller solutions.
Guess they're more susceptible to the crazy world of thermal dynamics then other coolers or something.
