As overclockers, it is necessary that we have aftermarket CPU coolers to dispel the monstrous amount of heat generated by today's multi-core processors. Scythe has launched what may be the most monstrous CPU cooler - ever. Meet the 1,155 gram (that's 2 1/2 pounds!) Scythe Orochi. This beast utilizes no less than 10 heatpipes, and measures 120 x 194 x 155mm. The Scythe Orochi is compatible with Intel sockets 478 and 775, and AMD sockets 754, 939, 940, AM2, and AM2+. If you'd like to see this behemoth in action, check out these official pics of the Orochi mounted on a motherboard - here, and here.
