The Scythe Ninja-PLUS has graced our product range for over two years and during that time it has become one of our most popular CPU Coolers. The reason it has been so popular is because that it is one of the most efficient heatsinks available. Just take a look at just some of the reviews of the product to see why it has done so well.

One of the drawbacks of the Scythe Ninja-PLUS is its size. It stands 150mm tall and because of this it can not fit into all cases. This is where the Mini Ninja comes in. In essence the Mini Ninja is just as its name suggests! The only difference between the Ninjas is their height, with the Mini Ninja only 115mm, which is 35mm short than its bigger brother. This gives the Mini broader compatibility with today's cases, especially smaller HTPC type cases.

You would think that due to the lack of materials used in the Mini that it would effect its performance, considering it has six less aluminium fins. In fact you would be wrong! From a performance point of view the Mini Ninja is virtually identical to the Ninja-PLUS. Where the Ninja-PLUS excels is when the heatsinks are being used fanless, the additional six fins come in very handy.

As with the Ninja-PLUS the Mini Ninja is compatible with the virtually every desktop motherboard available. Intel's socket 478 and LAG775, as is AMD's socket 754/939/940 and AM2.

LGA1366 Compatibility - To make this cooler LGA1366 compatible you will also need to purchase one of the optional LGA1366 Mounting Clips.

TIGHT FIT BUT EFFICIENT

Stock AMD cooler ran the AMD 5600 at 52/54C, the mini Ninja runs at 43C on 100% CPU load. Fitting is tight with an Asus M3N78-EM motherboard, but all RAM slots can be used, as fan can be fitted to clear. Great care with PSU cable routing. Used the excellent Scythe 92mm PWM fan.
