A Long Goodbye To Scythe ?

[xelosia]

Scythe one of the oldest manufacturers of PC Coolers was hit by the world economy crisis and has closed its doors forever. If you visit their USA site you will come accross this message:

To Customers and Users

Scythe USA Inc. has been a supplier of Scythe products for the past several years. In November 2012, Scythe USA had to make a difficult decision to end its operations as a result of the closure of its parent company. We greatly appreciate your business and support over the years.

Sincerely,

Masahiro Sakai

CEO

Although their EU site is up and running it seems that Scythe is a memory. So all i can say is that i wish the best to all working for Scythe and hopefully we may see them once again in the future, who knows.

Scythe does not make those, Nidec Servo does. Scythe USA (not Japan) rebrands them.

Not a bad deal... at 12.50 each...
Last time I was in on RRtech's group buy for the Ap15s and I got a bunch, but I used them all already.. I really like these fans.. though nothing fancy, they just work good..

Oh well it was nice while it lasted, if Intel follows through with it's plan, hardware review sites might also start being a thing of the past.

Never cared about Scythe's coolers. They were cool looking (no pun intended) but I had no use for them. I do however wish I'd picked up a Fenris Wolf back in the day. Despite it being so flimsy, it was a clean aesthetic.
