Default Scythe Mine - CPU Cooler?

Hi,

What do people think of this cooler for Core2 E6800 in full tower ATX?

http://www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/pro...elcooling/mine

Note the fan orientation.

There was an argument on here a few months back about CPU fan
orientation; most fans blow downwards onto the CPU (?), but Dell fans
and the Scythe Mine have the fan blowing _across_ the CPU.

Thoughts?


The orientation shouldn't be a problem.

I don't know much about that particular model, but the Scythe Ninja and
Infinity both get good reviews. I recently installed a Scythe Infinity on
my E6600 and my full load temps are now lower that what my idle temps
were using the stock cooler.
