Scythe Readies Fuma Dual-Stack CPU Cooler
Scythe is close to launching its latest high performance CPU cooler, the Fuma (SCFM-1000). This aluminium dual-stack (D-type) heatsink features two fin-stacks with a slanted fin pattern that maximizes heat dissipation by exposing more metal to the air-flow. Heat to the two fin stacks is led by six 6 mm thick nickel-plated copper heat pipes. These pipes pass through a nickel-plated copper base with mirror finish. A pair of 120 mm PWM fans come included, the heatsink itself supports up to three fans - intake, conveyor, and exhaust. The included fans support 4-pin PWM input, and spin between 300 and 1,400 RPM, pushing up to 79 CFM of air, each, with up to 28 dBA noise output, each. Measuring 137 mm x 130 mm x 149 mm, the cooler weighs about 920 g (including fans). All modern CPU socket types are supported, including LGA115x, LGA2011v3, LGA1366, LGA775, AM3+, and FM2+. The cooler is expected to launch later this month, beginning with Scythe's home market of Japan, on the 21st.

Wonder how much it will be stateside,...?
There aren't any dimpled heatsinks out there is there? Dimples improve airflow.
As the fins do restrict somehow airflow, as the air has the tendency to stick to the surface (coanda efect I think), it is possible that actually 2 fans provide better airflow and better air spread across the surface of the heat sink.
Its for sure a good cooler, but nowadays in a world with most popular desktop CPU in the 65-95 W range, it looks like an overkill for most of the people, except for enthusiasts/overclockers obviously.
Definitely overkill for everyone except o/c'ers and the "built it cause I can" crowd....

I found another one too:
3Rsystem's Iceage 120 Boss II
Both models, the dimples aren't what I expected (they're tiny). They still preform better than no dimples though.
Dammit, why didn't I think to look for that before buying my Scythe? :(
