A very interesting member of the Scythe cooler family comes next. I’m not wasting my time on the package as there are more exciting things to talk about.

Specifications	Scythe Samurai Z SCSMZ-1000
Socket	Socket 775/ 478 / 754 / 940 / 939
Dimensions	98 x 85 x 128 mm (L x W x H)
Fan	92 x 25 mm
Bearings	Slide bearing
Fan rotation speed	2,000RPM
Air flow	32.4 CFM

Weight	360 g

So, this cooler uses heat pipes but its design differs from the typical “tower”. This helped avoid the characteristic drawbacks of the tower design and make the cooler smaller.

There’s a rather large aluminum heatsink in the base. Two curved heat pipes transfer heat from the base to the thin aluminum plates at the top.
