Cooling manufacturer Scythe is known for making beefy processor coolers and we have tested several of them with good results. Scythe has shown a new cooler at CeBIT which makes the fairly recently launched Mugen 2 look like a tiny chipset cooler. Scythe Godhand is something of the biggest we have seen and we start to wonder if Scythe is actually serious with this thing.
Godhand sports a 250mm fan, which is a lot bigger than the 120mm fans most high-end coolers use. The heat is transferred from the processor with the help of 10 copper heatpipes up to the gigantic aluminum heatsink. The heatsink covers more than half of a regular ATX motherboard and will make most cases and graphics card tremble in fear.
We don’t have all the details yet, but the cooler is expected to appear in a limited quantity sometime in the next few months, and would it be as efficient as it is large we have a new king of the hill.
