The legendary ninja were known for their ability to go almost anywhere and get into seemingly impossible locations – and to do so silently. Enter the SCMNJ-1000 Ninja Mini from Scythe. Designed to fit into the 3U and other media PCs where space is at a premium, it takes on thermal build-up at a stealthy 24.4 dBA – quieter than the 30 dBA of a library. The 80mm fan spins at 2300 RPM on long-lasting sleeved bearings for many years of faithful service.
Like its bigger sibling, the Ninja CPU cooler, the Ninja Mini incorporates six 6mm copper heat pipes for maximum thermal dispersion away from the CPU among the ranks of aluminum convection fins. Also, like the bigger cooler, it is possible to operate without a fan, depending on the thermal needs of your system. The Ninja Mini is also able to add a 92mm fan to its arsenal in the even that more airflow is needed.
True to Scythe's dedication to user-friendliness, the Ninja Mini installs effortlessly onto Intel Socket 478 and 775 CPUs as well as AMD K8, 754, 939, 940 and AM2 processors where it will silently assassinate the demons of excess heat.

MINI??
- Pros: This cools VERY well. Dropped temperatures from stock 4 pipe AMD cooler: (full load) 54c to 46c (idle) 42c to 34c With the stock 80mm fan. You can upgrade all the way to a 120mm fan with an extra kit.
- Cons: I ma using this on a amd socket 939 the included amd mounted clip it too big and gets in the way of a larger fan. I ordered a 92mm fan for it and because of this clip it will not work in my very small lan pc case. (Mountain Mods Bob Slay) This shouldn't be an issue in a regular tower.
- Other Thoughts: This thing is really wide 110x110. On my MB it is in the way of the ram. I had to bend the lower two fins down (on the side next to the ram)out of the way to make it fit. I didn't take away a star because I was aware of its size this before I purchased it. System: Asus a8n32-sli deluxe/amd 4400+ Oc'ed to 2.4ghz / 2gb Corsair 3500/evga 7800 gt co/ custom Bob Slay
Great Cooler
- Pros: Running this on a dual core allendale. I've overclocked it from 1.8 ghz to 3.0 ghz, and this heatsink/fan have been awesome. It idles at 20c, and max load is in the 30s. The fan is super quiet and can mount on any side depending on your case and setup. Great price too.
- Cons: It's a little big if you're using a small case, but any midtower should be fine.
- Other Thoughts: I will buy another one in a couple months when I put together another machine.

Ninja-Mini Comments
- Pros: Easy to install.
- Cons: Noisy, largely because fan is 3-pin so fan runs "full out" at 2300 RPMs. I found the ninja-mini wouldn't reliably "clip" into the motherboard so had difficulty maintaining good contact with the CPU. Ninja-mini was relatively large and didn't easily fit into my mATX ASUS P5Q-EM. When I did get it to fit, I could only use 3 of the 4 memory slots.
- Other Thoughts: After install, I noticed the Ninja-mini was noisy; I reviewed and realized it had a 3-pin connector and thus was operating at the full 2300 RPMs. While SilentPC review considered this low noise, my experience is that noise was much higher than necessary. Should've had a 4-pin connector. Second issue, was the 4 plastic pins became disengaged from the motherboard and ninja had poor contact with the CPU, resulting in high temp operation. This is endemic to many coolers since they all have similar mounting. My solution: I replaced this with a Coolermaster Gemini S which mounts from back of motherboard (requires removing motherboard so it is a pain), but much more secure. Fan has 4-pins so less noisy. Ninja-mini is probably an OK cooler, maybe even good. For me, it was too noisy, didn't easily fit into my system, and prevented using all memory slots on my Asus P5Q-EM.
- Pros: Works great, its in a very limited space and doesn't get much fresh air flow, during long games of crysis, fear, and combat arms, it has never gotten over 44 deg C, and i keep my house at 82 deg F, so i think that's doing very good. at idle its stays at 32 deg C.
- Cons: Thought i was going to break the motherboard in half when i was installing it, VERY scary, very tight fit, maybe that's why it works so good
- Other Thoughts: I'm running AMD athlon 64 X2 5400 brisbane 2.8ghz clocked @ 3.2 ghz 4 gigs of mushkin ram on a BIOSTAR TFORCE TA790GX mobo and a total of 5 80mm fans, two in front, 2 back and the one that came with the scythe all in some cheap case that has this little slot under the front of the case for air inlet, and some power supply that has 2 fans in it,came with the case nothing special about it
good cpu cooler
- Pros: cools my 9950 AMD black very well im at 3.2g
I have 4g ocz ram at 1066 A 4870 ati very fast
- Cons: big.
