Rev.C. of the Mugen 5 Rev.C features a new Kaze Flex II 120 mm PWM fan but is based on the traditional Mugen 5 heatsink design with its most recognizable metal caps top cover. The cooler is now also compatible with Intel's LGA1700 socket, ideal for 12th Generation Core processors.

Nice cooler. Yep I would be up for that.
But what was that mobo. That plastic shroud all over it wasn't just plasticated it was spasticated.

I bought it a month ago (July 2022) and it's awesome. My temps would hit 90c but after installing the Scyte it never goes above 70c (which is a peak). Also it's very silent.
