But 1 thing i concern about the temperature reading, coz from my experience, Core Temp get different reading from those utilities come with ur mobo, perhaps someone here to clarify this???

Difference between the old and the new red scorpion can easily being seen by the heatpipe, the new 1 seems to have 1 layer coated on to the heatpipe, might improve the heat transfer.... just my 2 cents... =) still need some users with both the old and the new cooler to test out the performance

if im next to my case (cm690) i can only hear noise from air flow but it's not too quiet yet not loud..
i can say that the noise coming from my case is comparable to the noise that's my ceiling fan makes..

Mine also same case.... those noise is those air flowing noise.. not the FAN noise... the fan noise is acceptable... not like stock cooler HSF noise =)

the fin is for directing the some amount of air downward to ur to cool ur mobo chipset or something like that  tongue.gif

yeap.... if going for OC, should be good for the fin to direct some air flow towards ur mobo chip located near PROC... =P

I guess the gap between these 4 pipes is reduce, it maybe located nearer to each other if compared with 3 pipes line up.....

Dun judge it so fast... maybe it really can touch the 4 pipes with the proc, then u can imagine the heat transfer is how fast =).... well let juz hope this cooler perform well and it wont burn our pocket too deep.. haha... i hope to give a try on it... admire it once i saw it =P

One more important factor is ur casing air flow as well.... or maybe u can try out other thermal paste to see the performance.. =P
