Is this the Sythe Ninja?

[TBSN]

Is THIS heatsink the same as the Sythe Ninja, except with an included 120mm fan?

I've read reviews for the Sythe Ninja and I'm pretty sure it's the one I'm going to get, I just wanted to make sure this is the same one, because the one reviewed did not come with a fan...

Thanks!

Yes.

 

[TBSN]

Ok, so it will fit the same boards as the one in the review I assume.

It is not so much the M board that it may have a problem fitting, it is the case. It is very Tall.

 

[TBSN]

Yeah, I've that. I think it should fit the Antec P180 I probably going to get.

Yes. I think the 1100 has the new mounting system which may not work on certain boards which are compatible with the old mounting system.

 

[TBSN]

Hmmm, no way to find out which ones work and which don't I guess...

P.S.: can you change the speed of the cooler's fan using BIOS or a windows app, or do you need a 4 pin fan for that?

Depends on the motherboard, but no, you shouldn't need a 4-pin fan for that.

OK, cool. Thanks for the info. This stuff may be really simple to most of you, but if its the first time building, there's no other way to find this stuff out besides asking I guess. Thanks!
