Scythe has recently launched its latest MUGEN6 series of side flow CPU coolers, presenting an innovative approach to optimizing size and surface area. This new collection includes two models: the “MUGEN6” in silver and the “MUGEN6 Black Edition” in black, both designed to deliver exceptional cooling capabilities.
The MUGEN6 represents the sixth-generation evolution of Scythe’s renowned CPU cooler “MUGEN” series. Its standout feature lies in the large fins, measuring 80mm in depth with a 0.4mm thickness, which greatly emphasizes surface area for improved heat dissipation. Moreover, the MUGEN6 incorporates fins of varying shapes, enabling efficient fan air capture through its unique “multiple air flow transmission” structure.
Taking cooling performance a step further, the MUGEN6 Black Edition is equipped with a thick copper heat-receiving base known as the “High Precision Base Structure.” This base swiftly absorbs heat generated by the CPU and employs six φ6mm heat pipes to dissipate heat efficiently to the heatsink.
Both models come with the “WONDER TORNADO 120 PWM” cooling fan, specifically designed to optimize static pressure for CPU coolers. This fan offers a variable rotation speed ranging from 350 ± 200 rpm to 2,000 ± 10% rpm, providing an air volume of 7.68 ~ 60.29 CFM. Quiet operation is a key feature, with noise levels ranging from 3.0 ~ 26.8 dBA. The fan’s static pressure ranges from 0.49 ~ 24.03 Pa/0.05 ~ 2.45 mmH2O.
In terms of dimensions and compatibility, the “MUGEN6” measures 132mm in width, 106mm in depth, and 154.5mm in height, weighing 1,013g. On the other hand, the “MUGEN6 Black Edition” has the same width and height of 132mm but a depth of 132mm, weighing 1,197g. These coolers are compatible with Intel LGA2066/2011(V3)/1700/1200/115x and AMD Socket AM5/AM4.
Each MUGEN6 cooler comes with a syringe-type grease called “Thermal Elixir 3” (1g), an application spatula, two sets of wire clips, a PWM fan, and a Y-shaped cable for added convenience.
With an estimated market selling price of around $49, both the “MUGEN6” and “MUGEN6 Black Edition” offer consumers an exceptional cooling solution designed to combat the heating challenges of modern CPUs.
