I have an SK6 and a Glaciator at home. I am buying an XP 1600. My question is can I use these two HS/F's on this processor with an Abit KG7RAID? If so does anyone have any recommendations as to which i should use?

I have both of those HSFs and hve played with both under different heat loads. Either one will do a reasonable job with your new processor, Provided you have adequate case ventilation and use a quality thermal grease with them. The Glaciator will be more quiet than the SK-6 assuming it is equipped with the louder Delta fan.

however if they are equiped with the same fan then the sk6 will perform a little better. you must get good case ventilation though
