I currently have the Freezer Pro 7. my E6300 was overclocked at 3.3Ghz at default volt.
the cpu temp is 44C/62 idle/load (orthos)

should I get the Scythe Ninja Plus? does it make a big difference and is it worth the upgrade?
 
chances are it would not increase your overclock, the FP7 is a good cooler. if you are stable at 3.3 with a e6300 i would sit back and enjoy. unless you want to get it more quite

with a high speed fan the heatsinks are equal, only with low speed fans does the ninja really show it strength.

I don't plan to overlock more. I just want to reduce the current load temp (62c) for long-term usage.

I just read that review. how do I set the FP7 to 12v so that it ran at high speed?
 
it is controlled by the motherboard. it is possible that the MB reduce the voltage.
if I plug the fan directly to the power supply 12v , then it should run at max speed?
 
you could try one of those fan adapters for normal power plugs, there should be an option that controls it in the bios if the MB controls it.
 
I found out the solution. just disable the fan control within the bios. Then the fan will run at full speed (2500rpm). it is a little loud with this speed. it reduce the temp by more than 10 degree
