Review on Quiet Scythe Kaze Flex 120mm Fan - High-performance Case/CPU Cooler Fan with PWM and RPM Range of 300-1200 by James Sevenfourgd

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The scythe quality works again!

Setting up to add on the other side of the Mugen 5 was a breeze. Installs using the included clips from a previous Mugen 5 purchase without removing the cooler from the heatsink. Works just as well as the identical fan that came with my Mugen 5. My 3600 runs 10 degrees hotter than my 1600af at 48 degrees idle and 67 degrees under load. Temperatures were within spec but I still wish it was cooler. This reduced the difference by 5-7 cents. Use on Carbon MSI B450 Pro. I only saw one CPU socket on the MB so I connected this 2nd fan to the pump fan socket on the MB. It does not control fan speed in the same way as a CPU fan without a fan splitter. I just got around to ordering a 2/7 splitter. If this doesn't work the way I think I'll update the review.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Useless features
