Scythe unveiled the Magoroku (model SCMR‑1000), a sizable dual fin‑stack air cooler for high‑performance builds. A nickel‑plated copper base anchors six 6 mm heatpipes that channel heat to two fin arrays capped with matte‑black steel plates. The cooler aims at large CPUs that generate heavy loads, positioning itself against tower offerings from Noctua and be quiet!.

Each unit ships with two Wonder Tornado 120 mm fans, equipped with 4‑pin PWM control and fluid‑dynamic bearings. Fan speeds swing from 300 to 2,000 RPM, delivering 7.68–60.29 CFM airflow while generating 3–26.88 dBA noise and up to 2.45 mm H₂O static pressure. Such airflow and pressure let the unit handle RAM and VRM hotspots without sacrificing quiet operation. The cooler measures 134 × 142.5 × 154 mm and weighs about a kilogram.

Pricing lands at €39.99 inclusive of tax, with shipments slated for early next month. The Magoroku undercuts many mid‑range liquid solutions, delivering comparable thermal headroom for overclockers and workstation users. Its blend of robust heatpipe architecture and quiet fans makes it a compelling alternative for builders seeking performance without water‑cooling complexity. Its ease of mounting aligns with standard Intel and AMD sockets, simplifying DIY upgrades.
