Scythe announces the availability of an LGA1700 upgrade kit for several of its coolers. Unfortunately, it's not offered for free. Various cooling firms offer this service but Scythe charges 7.99EUR for the upgrade kit.
The Japanese cooler specialist Scythe presents the new LGA1700 mounting kit (SCMK-1700), which enables users of Scythe products to upgrade their coolers to Intel's new LGA1700 socket. The upgrade kit will be available mid November at a suggested retail price of EUR 7.99. It can be ordered from local retailers and distributors or directly from Scythe customer service if you are located in Europe.
In addition, the current cooler models will be equipped with a new LGA1700 compatible mounting system in the near future.
The following coolers can be used on LGA1700 with the upgrade kit:
MUGEN 5 Series: SCMG-5000/SCMG-5100/SCMG-5PCGH/SCMG-5102AR/SCMG-5100TUF/ SCMG-5100BE
FUMA Series: SCFM-1100/2000
NINJA 5: SCNJ-5000
BIG SHURIKEN 3: SCBSK-3000/SCBSK-3000R
SHURIKEN 2: SCSK-2000
KOTETSU Mark II: SCKTT-2000/SCKTT-2000TUF
CHOTEN TUF: SCCT-1000TUF
Current cooler models that are already LGA1700 compatible and do not require any additional mounting parts:
