My Xigmatek fan spoilt today CPU fan speed cant be detected but it's spinning... huhu

if its spinning then it shouldnt be a problem... try unpluging and re-plug it back... could it be your pwm??

Unplug & replug also cant help Tried other fan & working fine, CPU fan speed sensed.

aiyak...didnt expect xigma fan to be so char

the 4 pin there nothing loose right?

Nope nothing is loose, let me think twice when buying Xigmatek fan.
Gonna RMA the whole cooler & fan is really gimme headache!

aikss...too bad... maybe u just RMA the fan nia lo...or not u go get a FM123 if u gatal n likes high CFM

Dunno they'll take back the heatsink together or just the fan I'll wait & see tomoro.
Thinking of avoiding the Xigmatek fan & go for RM123 as suggested but scare if it's noisy

memang that fan will be noisy LOL...

u better have a fan controller ready...

btw, off topic kejap...

the AC ryan oso noisy ar? i used to think that it is silent n very tempted to get ..hehe..

how u rate it ar?

iinm fm123 comes with a fan controller... so noise is not really a problem then

or maybe u could go ask bro AnG to recommend a silent fan for your xigma

I'm using the HDT-SD964 at the moment. Just wondering, what's the best 92mm fan w/ LED in the market now (high RPM & CFM)? I saw one from Vizo, but it's without LEDs.

Xigmatek Readying Dark Knight HDT S1283 Cooler

The brand name "Dark Knight" seems to be quite a fashion these days. Xigmatek is preparing a new CPU cooler, the Dark Knight HDT for global launch. The cooler is compatible with Intel LGA-775 and AMD sockets 754, 939, 940, AM2(+). It measures 120x50x159 mm, and weighs 660 g.

The cooling mechanism consists of three copper heatpipes that come in direct contact with the CPU, which convery heat to to the array of aluminum fins. The fins are cooled by a 120 mm fan that rotates at speeds between 1000 and 2000 rpm. The fan has a maximum noise-level of 22 dBA. It features white LEDs for lighting.

hi guys,

this Xigmatek fan come with 3pin or 4pin?
if 4pin molex, how the mobo will detect its speed?

nice nice

i want the fan


well... it comes with a 4pin that can be plug into the mobo...

not a molex bro

It comes with 4-pin connector, not molex.

4pin so can connect to mobo?

Push pin mounting for this gigantic heatsink is kinda sucky.

It came off once while the pc was on, and caused the cpu to shoot up to 100degree and the pc restarted!

Anyway i was forced to buy the crossbow kit and was kind of impressed by it's performance. Idle 37 degrees on E8400 using AS5

Yeah, and the rpm can be detected & controlled

4 pin PWM connector, not molex.

can i know tat how diff xigmatek Red scorpion compare wif S1284 ???

how come many ppl get Red Scorpion instead of s1284 ???

i saw 1284 review on internet.
although wit extra heat pipe (but smaller), still looses to 1283................
