	Review: Scythe Kamakaze CPU cooler
		The Kamakaze also comes with this mounting frame to allow it to be used on Pentium 4s; the frame replaces the standard P4 cooler retainer (it's only slightly different, but the Kamakaze still won't fit a stock frame), so you can't attach it to a motherboard that's installed in a case already.
		There were no fasteners for the frame included with the Kamakaze I got for review, but Scythe tell me they've now noted that you can't always re-use the fasteners that held your factory installed frame in place, so they're now bundling a bag of fasteners (and some heat sink grease) with all Kamakazes.
		Even allowing for a more conservative clip tightness setting and less-than-optimal thermal grease application, the Kamakaze at full power should be up to the task of cooling pretty much any Socket A CPU in a case with passable ventilation, unless you're determined to hunt that very last few per cent of overclockability.

	Kamakaze
		Looking at the Kamakaze, I was struck by the resemblance to Alpha's heatsink construction - the copper base is fit into the aluminum base which holds the cooling pins.
		The Kamakaze was tested on the CPU Die Simulator which gives results that are unaffected by motherboard influences.
		Scythe's Kamakaze is well made and an OK choice for modest, low-noise Socket A/P4 cooling; performance varies quite a bit depending on fan rpms.

	BigBruin.Com - Scythe Kamakaze Heatsink Review
		According to Scythe, this spelling of “Kamakaze” is Japanese for “Scythe Wind”.
		The Scythe Kamakaze appears to be built to the highest of quality standards.
		Although there isn’t much difference in the amount of noise produced, the speed at which the fan is turning (RPM) is where the difference is. A fan turning at 3400 RPM can be expected to be quieter than a fan turning any amount higher.

	Review: Kamakaze HSF by Scythe \| silentpcreview.com (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Kamakaze CPU heatsink by Scythe in Japan is an unusual product in many ways.
		Kamakaze (more often spelled kamikaze) is a Japanese word that means "divine wind", coined to describe the historic typhoon that destroyed an invading Mongol fleet on route to Japan in the 13th century.
		The shroud is used to force the airflow to come into the HS nearer the bottom half of the aluminum heatsink pins, which is closer to the heat source, the CPU.

	Scythe Kamakaze 2 HSF Review - ap0calypse - The Last Stop in Tech
		The Kamakaze 2 isn’t the most aesthetic looking cooler, but as long as it gets the job done that’s fine by me. As you can see below an 80mm fan mounts to the mounting bracket, which screws directly into the base of the heatsink.
		The Kamakaze 2 comes shipped with a variable speed, 80mm fan which is controlled by a dial which mounts on a PCI bracket.
		The first step in installing the Kamakaze 2 was to put the P4 mounting bracket on the motherboard’s HSRB (Heat Sink Retention Bracket).

	BurnOutPC.com & GamingObjects.com - Articles - Scythe Kamakaze (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Today's market for CPU cooling is widely spread, Swiftech has gained ground for the better overclockers, Intel has always included their own designed cooler which comes stock with the boxed Intel pentiums, coolers such as those are not enough for the overclockers and modders out there, they want silence, a flat base, and performance.
		The Kamakaze cooler resembles the look of those older Alpha coolers which there "the hype" back in the old days, the brackets used to assemble the cooler onto the motherboard is attached to a base which has a little screw.
		It seems we've got ourselves a winner here, it might not be "the" cooler for modders with windows in their computers because the Kamakaze cooler definitely hasn't won the beauty contest, but that doesn't matter because the temperatures are right, and the overall performance of this cooler is above standard.

	Scythe Kamakaze CPU Cooler
		Another nice feature is that the Kamakaze supports multiple processors, P4, PIII, and AMD socket A chips.
		While the wires may be a problem, the this cooler is of a high quality, seen by the high gloss shine of copper on the bottom.
		Most of the weight distribution is from the slab of copper even though it looks like it should be from the contraption holding on the fan.

	Scythe Kamakaze AthlonXP / Pentium 4 Heatsink Review - FrostyTech.com
		Scythe Kamakaze heatsink tries to solve all these issues, and comes with all the necessary hardware to cool both types of processors.
		In any case, the Kamakaze is an interesting heatsink because it is set up to work on both Intel Pentium 4 and AMD AthlonXP processors thanks to a complex mounting mechanism.
		Below you can see the Scythe Kamakaze configured for Socket A processors, but with the turn of a few screws it can just as easily be set up for an Intel system.

	ASE Labs: Reviews - Scythe Kamakaze 2 SCKM-2000
		The original Kamakaze was nice, but the Samurai out cooled its lower brother.
		Unlike the original Kamakaze, there isn't a piece that falls off when you remove the bracket.
		The Kamakaze line doesn't provide fins for the heat dissipation, instead opting for the oval shaped pins.

		Others simply have poor designs and cost little to no money, a poor solution for a minimum $300 investment in the overclockable ‘bits’ of a computer.
		Today we’ll be looking at two different specialized approaches at either end of the CPU cooling spectrum, the Scythe Kamakaze and the TS Heatronics NCU-1000.
		Before we cover every shirt in the wardrobe with thermal compound I would like to thank Will from Scythe for helping 3DVelocity get this review off the ground.

		They only have a few products out as of yet, but one of them is the Kamakaze heatsink.
		That is not kamikaze, as in the suicide planes of WWII, but Kamakaze.
		Similar in fashion to the Swiftech MCX series, the Kamakaze uses aluminum pins mounted to a copper base that has been machine pressed into an aluminum shell.
