Scythe Mugen 6 CPU Air Cooler, Intel LGA1700, LGA1151, AMD AM5, AM4 Support,120mm, Single Tower, Aluminium Top Cover (Scythe Mugen 6)

I have never purchased a Scythe product before, but after doing a lot of research, I decided to give this a try. So far this is far exceeding my expectations! It makes me want to purchase other Scythe fans for my case! I got an AMD Ryzen 7 5800x CPU and needed to also upgrade my cooling system. At this price point, the Mugen 6 dual fan black edition was the best option I could find. The 5800x runs very hot, but this cooling system keeps everything running nice and cool even at max CPU load. The 2 fans it comes with are great and the noise is very quiet compared to my last set up. The fans are not rgb, but I am OK with that for my build. The left fan (when mounted on the MB) was very easy to put on and I did so before putting it in the case. The right fan however, needs to be put on after you install the cooler so that you can reach the mounting screw. This can be a little difficult if you have a small case, but for me it wasn't too bad. One major reason I got this product was because it is built to sit to the side of my ram for easy access if I need it. With both fans in place, I can still pull my ram straight out without hitting anything. It is a rather large system overall so make sure you look at the dimensions to see if it will fit in your case. It is pretty tall when mounted to your MB. I have less than a half inch of room from the case to the unit. This comes with thermal paste and a spatula which is awesome! The box also includes mounting hardware and various brackets to make it compatable with popular MB/CPU combos. The mounting screws and brackets all seem pretty sturdy. This Cooler is big and kind of heavy but I don't think it will be going anywhere. I have had this running almost every day for almost a month and everything is still working great! I recommend this to everyone on a budget that still wants a great cooling system.

This is tall! 155mm my 2014 logisys mid tower has 16mm clearance left but it is bulged side panel. The width is just right as I want a high cooling air cooler with plenty airflow from the thin yet quiet 120mm fans. The speed are decently fast and continuous just on all time. Being not as thick as the twin tower yet thicker heatsink than most single tower it is a cold beast! The compatibility is just perfect. Better compatibility on asus b350f motherboard barely clears back vram heatsink on msi b450 tomohawk atx am4 motherboard but, still fits perfectly. You can see it on my pictures provided. The durability of the black paint is pretty strong and beautiful. This is my first scythe and I would seriously look at their line over anyone else. I tried 5500 65w cpu and it was at 61c in game. The 5500 didn't work out well with driver bios from asus for me. I will update when I can actually get the msi tomohawk b450 with 3700x 65w 8 core in game reliably. I have full confidence that this scythe mugen 6 black edition will be a cool beast.

Easy to install, kept my AMD Ryzen 7950 well within spec even during RAM test. Used provided thermal paste, enough for two applications at least (I cleaned and reseated while diagnosing an unrelated issue with RAM, so I installed twice). Fans are nice and quiet, comparable to my Noctua case fans to my ear. Very affordable for a hot running cpu, imo.

I was upgrading my CPU from a 3700X to the 5700X3D and seen Scythe had a new Mugen out. I had to of course upgrade that as well, though nothing was wrong with the 5 Rev. C Black Edition I had. This is a great cooler all around. Looks nice, performs well, can be used on most CPUs, isn't overly large, just a solid cooler for the price. It's quiet as well and cools the 5700X3D just fine, especially when undervolted, as you should be doing anyway. I get better thermals with this cooler on the 5700X3D than the 5 got on the 3700X, which was surprising as the X3D chips typically run a bit hotter. One thing to note is the mounts are not the same as the Mugen 5. Minor changes were made to the bracket system as well as the cooler itself. No biggie, the AM4 mounting setup is simple enough to swap out. I'm still undecided about the smooth top look vs the button topped 5, but they both look nice and perform as expected. If you are buying the Mugen 6 get the dual fan version. Yes it costs more but with the extra fin density you need a push/pull fan setup. I don't know why they even offer a single fan version.

This is a two fan single tower cooler. It is of an asymmetrical design so the pipes are "bent" by design, this gives the front fan more room to clear RAM slots. Using Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB memory modules which are 51mm tall. The offset cooler gives plenty of space. It is a tall cooler, so you will need to check case specs before ordering. My case is a Corsair 3500X and the cooler about one inch from the glass panel. The instructions are fairly straight forward and easy to fallow. Just make sure you are using the proper brackets for your CPU socket type. The fans like to slide around and because of the way the fins are designed it can be hard to keep them centered. Performance wise it is nearly on par with other coolers in a higher price bracket. I tested the cooler on my AMD 5700X3D. The motherboard is an ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II. I did not use the included thermal paste and instead used Arctic MX-7. For the testing I used OCCT with AVX2 instructions set, the Medium Data Set, in Extreme mode, with a variable Load Type. It was tested in CPU and RAM configuration to give it a more every day or gamer centric result. Under 100% load and at 92 Watts, the CPU did not throttle and stayed around 4040MHz. Ambient temperature was 25C (75F). The CPU stayed between 67 and 70C during the 20 minute test. However, when I switched to a more CPU heavy mode the CPU jumped to 110W and 84C. I did not feel safe at this level and ended the test quickly. This is rated for over 200W of system power. I would not feel comfortable using this for anything much over 115W. Should be moving over to liquid and get an AIO at that point. Pictures include showing memory slot clearance and test results. The rear fan did rest on the board VRM heat spreader. I purchased this to replace an aging Corsair H100i cooler. The heat generated by my CPU while gaming did not warrant the need of an expensive AIO. Overall I would say it is a good cooler for the money.

I've used this cooler on a 14600K and 7800X3D and it did the job of cooling both without issue. The install on both AM5 and LGA 1700 is simple and well documented. The fans are quiet and have a reasonable noise profile when audible.

Scythe has always had very solid products at a more affordable price than something like a Noctua product. I have used both the Mugen 6 and the Mugen 5 in various builds and have zero complaints. I do appreciate that they made a 'blacked out' variant of the product. Helps keep things very clean in the system. I am anti-RGB, so anything that just 'blends in' is preferred.

This fan was extremely easy to install, so much so that i thought i must have did it wrong. So far, after a few days, the fan runs very quiet and keeps my Intel i5-14600k very cool. Also it fit in my SFF build.

Bien reçu parfait

Satisfied with the product! Recently needed a smaller fan that is design in asymmetric mode to give room for my 5090 and I'm quite please with that!

Alın takın varlığını unutun. Çok sessiz ver serin. Aldım kullanıyorum kafam rahat.

Ich habe den Scythe Mugen 6 auf meinem AM5-System verbaut und bin absolut beeindruckt. Scythe beweist hier einmal mehr, dass man keine Unmengen ausgeben muss, um eine erstklassige Kühlleistung bei schicker Optik zu erhalten. Kühlleistung & Performance Die Kühlleistung auf dem AM5-Sockel ist hervorragend. Selbst bei längeren Gaming-Sessions hält er meine CPU locker auf stabilen Temperaturen. Die mitgelieferten Lüfter (Wonder Tornado) sind dabei extrem laufruhig – im normalen Betrieb hört man das System kaum, und selbst unter Last bleibt die Geräuschkulisse absolut im Rahmen. Design & Verarbeitung Optisch macht der Mugen 6 richtig was her. Das Design ist schlicht, aber durch die hochwertige Oberfläche und das "Offset-Design" wirkt er sehr edel im Gehäuse. Besonders cool: Er ist so konstruiert, dass er dem Arbeitsspeicher nicht im Weg steht, was bei vielen großen Tower-Kühlern oft ein Problem ist. Die Verarbeitung ist, wie von Scythe gewohnt, auf Top-Niveau. Montage auf AM5 Die Installation war super entspannt. Da er auf die Standard-Backplate von AMD setzt, war der Kühler in wenigen Minuten sicher montiert. Das Werkzeug liegt sogar bei – vorbildlich! Fazit Wer einen effizienten, leisen und optisch ansprechenden Kühler für sein Ryzen-System sucht, macht hier alles richtig. Für diesen Preis ist der Mugen 6 kaum zu schlagen. Jetzt bin ich mit meinem Build fast durch – als kleiner Abschied: Jetzt fehlt mir eigentlich nur noch die passende weiße GPU, um das Design komplett abzurunden!

silencioso, buena calidad, estetico
