Big Shuriken 3 vs. Big Shuriken 2

SPONSOR: Thermal Grizzly's Carbonaut pads are an excellent substitute for traditional thermal compound - minus the mess and degradation. Amazon link: http://geni.us/QLg0CE

Low profile coolers might LOOK cool, but what thermal compromises should you expect? We look at the Big Shuriken 3 from Scythe in this video and compare it to its predecessor - the Big Shuriken 2 - along with two traditional air coolers. You can find them all along with our test bench linked to Amazon below:
