Sad News
Sad news regarding the Scythe Gentle Typhoon line, but we have hopes that the new Scythe Grand Flex line should be an adequate replacement:
FrozenCPU,
Regretfully, both Nidec and Scythe have decided not to continue their business relationship.
We will not be able to fulfill your Gentle Typhoon order.
We will be promoting the new Grand Flex fans. These are supposedly better than the Gentle Typhoons.
We need to get the message out to the public. I should have some samples by early next month.
By the way, Scythe reserves the right to the name Gentle Typhoon.
That means Nidec can’t sell the product to anybody with our label, our package, our brand and etc. attached to it.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Hank Peng

Really?! why?? the gentle typhoons are like one of the most popular fans for radiators. Why kill it? That doesn't make sense at all.
Bad business deal.....

I'm sure it has to do with a break down in negations. Who makes how much off what. You may see the same fan under a different name soon. Someone like alphacool could pick it up under a new name. Or even Cooler master.

I hope that's the case. I also hope somebody with better logistics like Cooler Master gets it then![]()
