Scythe SCFM-2100 Fuma 2 Rev.B from Wootware @ R899 pre order
Upgraded with two new Kaze Flex II fans and LGA 1700 mounting bracket Tech Powerup info

Jokes aside, this is a very good cooler at this price, 1.5K if you buy it from Amazon, so Woot is definitely doing a good deal on this.

Rev B review:

Considering how it compares against the more expensive Nocutau U14S and the MUCH more expensive Noctua D15, this really is a bargin.
I'm mounting mine either this weekend or next, depending on how lazy I feel.

Mounted mine this morning, was relatively straight forward for AM4, came with a screw driver in the box which is a nice extra.

Definitely very happy with mine, don't see myself needing another cooler for a very long time.

EDIT: Looking at the official msrp in the review video $66 , Woot really is running a great deal on this.

What CPU are you running it on and what temps do you get under torture test or cinebench?

5600X , 69C max after 3 cinebech runs, HWinfo shows CPU package power 105W on last run
Need to change my thermal paste though, all I had on hand was the crappy bulk HY510 with a whopping 1.93W/mK of thermal conductivity

There is 1 application worth in the box but I messed up my first mount so waiting for delivery next week of some slightly better thermal paste.

EDIT: running at stock, here are the results as well for my 5600X
56C after 3rd cinebench , 76W CPU package power, fan speed 1153 RPM

Amazon current have the Asus TUF Gaming 3070ti @ $699
Locally the cheapest I could find for a 3070ti seems to be 15K(Palit,Zotac,Gainward).
This exact card "Asus 3070 Ti TUF GAMING OC Edition" locally is 17.5K.

ASUS TUF Gaming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti OC Edition : total at checkout ZAR 12,830.87 (Including priority shipping) and ZAR 12,556.80 (Standard Shipping)

EDIT: Oops forgot I had Amazon credit so had to fix the ZAR price

Does one have to add VAT or import duties to this ZAR price?

I managed to get an order in but I think it was as they sold out... Hoping it goes through! They haven't deducted any funds yet though which has me worried. Arrival date 25th May with Priority Shipping also isn't encouraging....

Standard Evetech warning, no aftersales/warranty guaranteed and only for those willing to to roll the dice.
Buy at your own risk and if something goes wrong they may decide not to honor the warranty or deduct a % of your refund, with that in mind I present the below deal.

LG UltraGear 32GN600 32" QHD 2560 x 1440 Gaming Monitor @ R5999

Lawdy, that's tempting.

Anyone know what the closest (reliable/trustworthy) competitor charges?
