The Scythe Kotetsu Mark 2 is a single tower CPU air cooler designed for efficient cooling with minimal space requirements. Its slim heatsink ensures compatibility with most modern motherboards and graphics cards, avoiding interference with RAM and PCIe slots. Standing at 154mm tall, it fits well in mid-tower cases, making it a versatile choice for various PC builds. The cooler is ideal for users looking for a balance between performance and compatibility, especially those with high TDP processors or those planning to overclock.
The cooler features four 6mm heatpipes and a copper base plate, which work together to transfer heat efficiently from the CPU to the heatsink. This design ensures better thermal conductivity and dissipation, leading to improved cooling performance. The included 120mm Kaze Flex fan provides high airflow and static pressure while maintaining quiet operation, thanks to its fluid dynamic bearing and PWM control. The fan operates between 300-1200 RPM, allowing users to adjust performance based on noise preferences.
The H.P.M.S II mounting system is designed for ease of installation and secure contact with the CPU. It supports a wide range of sockets, including Intel LGA 775 through LGA 1366, LGA 2011(V3), LGA 2066, and AMD Ryzen AM4, AM(+), AM2(+), FM2(+), and FM. This compatibility makes the cooler suitable for both Intel and AMD platforms. The mounting system ensures precise pressure application, which is crucial for optimal thermal performance.
The Kotetsu Mark 2 has a compact footprint of 136mm in width, 85mm in depth, and weighs 645g. It comes with thermal paste and a single fan chip, providing everything needed for immediate installation. The asymmetric heatsink design not only improves compatibility but also enhances airflow efficiency. The nickel-plated heatpipes and embossed top plate add a refined aesthetic to the cooler’s design.
