In spite of its reduced thickness, an average life-span of 100 000 hours is achieved thanks to the self-contained fluid dynamic bearing (FDB). Max Performance The cooler has option for swapping original 15mm fan to common 25mm fan for maximum cooling performance. In addition to LGA 1700 support, backwards compatibility with older Intel platforms (LGA 1200/115x/2066/2011/1366/775) is wide and AMD AM4 socket is also on the list of supported platforms. There are coolers with lower noise output under load, but fan profiles can be adjusted and there was plenty of thermal headroom available to do just that, even with one of the hottest desktop CPUs I’ve ever used. Testing is carried out on BC1 Mini v2 (open testbench), using the following hardware, in 20°C ambient room temperature.

The last side of the box, at the top, is where we find the UPC codes for various regions, and to the right of them are addresses for support, should you need it.

Thanks to this new asymmetrical heatsink design, Big Shuriken 3 is able to deliver unrestricted RAM compatibility and distinguishes itself as the perfect cooling solution for high-end HTPC and ITX systems. wPrime is set to twelve threads, while AIDA64 is configured to stress the CPU, FPU, cache, and system memory.With unique coolers, fans, and accessories in their product portfolio, it is not surprising that they have garnered a dedicated following.
