Excellent design and aesthetics, Amazing performance in both temperature and particularly noise control, Takes the best of prior Mugen 5 releases, improves it in areas, and compacts it all into a smaller design, High-end performance for a mid-range budget
Isn't provided with a manual RGB controller, Neutral, None, Scythe Mugen 5 Black (SCMG-5100BK) RGB Edition Review
The Scythe Mugen 5 (regardless of which version you can pick) has always proven to be an excellent option for those looking for high-end performance on a mid-range budget. No, it doesn't perform as well as some of the biggest names, but then again as show...

Impressive performance in temperatures and particularly noise, Excellent value for money, Strong aesthetics whether the RGB is on or off, Another excellent product building up the Scythe reputation,
The exterior packaging is simply awful. Limited information, provided badly, and no clear picture of the cooler, Neutral, Limited brand exposure might limit supply at your preferred retailer, Scythe Mugen 5 TUF Gaming Alliance (SCMG-5100TUF) Review,
PriceAt the time of writing, we do not have a confirmed price for the Scythe Mugen 5 TUF Gaming Alliance. Based on indications of the former (non-RGB) model, however, we would expect this to retail for a price in the region of £50. This, in comparative te...

Abstract: Today, we have the Scythe Mugen 5 CPU Cooler on our test bench. Following on from the Scythe Kabuto 3, it will be interesting to see how a more normal style cooler performs VS the top-down offering in the Kabuto 3. For those who are unfamiliar with them...
Very quiet stock fan, Pricing (can find deals for $45 dollars as well), Moderate cooling
Short warranty, Moderate Cooling
Moderate cooling performance, but otherwise a high quality CPU cooler. The Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B is a great buy for those looking to reduce noise in their rigs.Review$51.95 NeweggMOREBest CPU CoolingMOREHow To Choose A CPU CoolerMOREAll Cooling Conte...
Relatively good performance across the board, Nice, simple and clean aesthetic, Performs the same as an NZXT Kraken X42 AIO CPU Cooler (at double the price), Handles an overclocked Intel Core i7-7700K processor no problems, Not as big as some top end tow
I just personally don't like the colour choice on the fan (my opinion of course)

Scythe's Mugen 5 Rev. B is a good looking cooler with a bare metal aesthetic that goes well with any theme. Capped heat pipes and a subtle Scythe logo on the top fin cleans it up nicely.A few details about the Mugen 5 that I can appreciate is (1) the asym...
Impressive addition to Scythe's already great line-up With its combination of ease of use, good performance, and nearly silent performance the Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B really does offer nearly the best of both worlds. It offers nearly the ease of ‘thin' cooli...
Let's go back to that “Zero Tolerance” statement from the beginning. If I was to compare the Mugen 5 in relation to that, then I'd have to say Scythe is doing exactly what they set out to do. Of course I also have to judge the cooler by my own standards a...
