Massive new Scythe cooler?!

[crazyazn]

When I was at Anitec a few months ago, they had a 30cm (yes, 30 CENTIMETERs - 300mm) CPU heatsink and fan on display but not for sale. The heatsink had copper pipes leading to a huge 30cm x 30cm aluminum heatsink, and the fan's diameter was 30cm.

Well, they seem to have the Orochi on sale. Does Anitec love crazy heatsinks or smth?

Just saw the comparison pic with the cigs... looks like a pretty wide fin spacing, well-suited for keeping noise down. Not too sure how much good the second row of heatpipes will do, though. Definitely a case of diminishing returns.

Well, at $55.95, the price isn't all that bad. It's still cheaper than the non-sale prices of the TRUE, CNPS9700, and NH-U12P to name a few. Also, it already comes with a 140mm fan so you won't need to go out and get one yourself.
