Product Gallery

The Scythe FUMA 2 Rev.B is a robust dual-tower cooler finished in a stylish black finish. It keeps your CPU cool at all times and provides a safe system with two 120mm fans and six copper heatpipes. Because of the asymmetrical architecture, it is also compatible with high and expanding memory latches.

A pair of SY1225SL12M-CJP Scythe fans keep this dual-tower configuration cool. Fan blade rotation speed may be as low as 300 RPM and as high as 1400 RPM when full power is supplied. Airflow ranges from 5.6 at the low end to 79 CFM at the high end, producing up to 1.56 mmH2O of pressure while spinning on the sleeve bearing. The tower weighs in at roughly 920 grams with these fans, and we discovered Scythe warrants this cooler for two years from the date of purchase.

You'll spot a back-plate that supports a wide variety of CPU sockets; Intel LGA 2011 / 1366 / 1156 / 1155 / 1150 / 1200 and AMD Socket AM3 / AM4 based processors can be used in combination with this cooler. Scythe includes three sets of fan clips using the Fuma Rev.B. This is plenty to cover the two fans included in the package, as well as to allow for the addition of a third fan if desired. Scythe also includes a Y-splitter connection so that one motherboard PWM header can operate both fans.

Scythe Slipstream SY1225SL12M-CJP fans are included with the Fuma Rev.B. Both fans feature nine blades enclosed by a black frame and a sleeved wire with a 4-pin PWM connector at the end. One thing to keep in mind is that no isolation material is pre-applied or included with the hardware.
