Is this that heatsink you are talking about???

SLK800


If so, I have to say it looks great and nice, big solid copper.
However as an improvment over the Thermaltake Volcano 7+ or 9, it lets air pass down all the way while still managing to remove heat of the core. Not a bad looking heatsink. I would use an 80mm.


<-----goes on line to order one.
 
you cant buy it on the basis that it looks good, or because it "lets air pass all the way down".
but that doesnt matter anyway, because whatever reason you DO buy it for, you wont be dissapointed with it - it is the best you can buy, afterall.

guys the slk-800 is the BEST no debating there , about the fan it's up to each person to decide

of courese sure if u get a vantec tornado u'll probably freeze the cpu but u wouldn't get much sleep with the pc on
good luck with ur choice.
