As we mentioned at the beginning of this review there are not a whole lot of options for a low-profile air cooler these days. Scythe has put together a pretty good cooler in their Big Shuriken 3, although we would not recommend this cooler for someone...
To summarize the Big Shuriken 3 in just a few words we are reminded of an old ad campaign from the 1990s that went “those who like it like it a lot”. This CPU cooling solution is not going to be right for everyone. That is fine. This is not a jack of all trades cooling solution.

$45. That's the cost of this extremely attractive looking heatsink that trade blows with Noctua's NH-L12 that had an MSRP of $65 when it was on the market. Today, a similar option from Noctua would be the 70mm NH-L12S priced at $50 but then… beige.When...
The SCYTHE Big Shuriken 3 offers very impressive cooling performance in a very compact package for a cooler that features five heat pipes and a 120 mm fan, and it is an extensible design as well with optional support for a standard 25 mm fan if you have...
