Best HS For AMD 2600+

GBorrelli · 07-February-03, 01:09 PM

Just as the topic states...what's the best HS for an AMD 2600+? I want the highest performance HS for my proc cuz I wanna put a 80mm Vantec Stealth so that the thing is quiet. To make up for the lack of CFM put out by the fan I want the highest performance HS.

SLK-800 is the best air solution, (or one of the very best)

http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...tion=SLK%2D800 Newegg has them here. Other sinks are good as well, the Sk-7 The AX-7... but that SLK-800 seems to be the champ right now.

Of course there is the Alpha PAL series......those suckers are mammoth!

BigAkita · 07-February-03, 01:36 PM

Wait a week and get a SLK-900.

cpufreak · 07-February-03, 02:23 PM

Geeez there you go pushin that SLK stuff again

J/K Im actually pickin one up myself for my new rig. Good stuff

Best one out there

BZA · 07-February-03, 03:20 PM

900, hadnt seen about that one, got a link? whats the diff? does it hold a 92mm fan?

BigAkita · 07-February-03, 03:23 PM

Yes, 92mm fans can be used for AMD processors. Article is Here.

GBorrelli · 07-February-03, 04:22 PM

Damn that thing is a monster...Alright, thanks.

GB..I just got an slk 800 for my 2600.I love it!! I was one of those Volcano 7+ guys and I just got tierd of all the noise!. I was running aroung 94-96 F. with the Vol. and after the change it is running around the low 80's. I did put a 80 mm fan on it and it is still like night and day..

lcpiper · 07-February-03, 08:37 PM

I have never seen anyone dissatisfied with the newer Thermalright HSfs, I have the SLK-800 and it is by far the best hs I have ever had and that is a pretty good list. Both the Alpha PAL8045 and Noise Control Silverado are amoung them.

SLK 900 is avalible now from SVC.com

SLK-900

And the 800 can be had for 29.99 SK-7 for 19.99 (heck of a lot cheaper than newegg)

Lokie · 07-February-03, 09:42 PM

This might piss of you scapegoat,lcpiper,and all you water cooling freaks(hope to be one soon)but The screensavers recomend that heatsink more than water cooling. Just seen them do that last night.

BigAkita · 07-February-03, 10:19 PM

Sh!t Lokie, I could have told you that 3 years ago. I know I could cool just as well with a heatsink and fan. All my other rigs besides my main one are aircooled. But I HAVE to run water in at least one. It's a challenge, it's effective, and the wow factor to the unknowing is priceless. It's also a pain in the ass sometimes, but making it all work is so satisfying.

Lokie · 07-February-03, 10:47 PM

Yah I remember your leak, thank the PR gods that it was off.
I'm workin on it,next rig that is,dam I'm runnin to many projects.....

Fredstar · 08-February-03, 12:31 AM

I've got a 2700+ and a lapped volcano 7+ and it's currently at 29 Celsius. (Idle)

me_john85 · 08-February-03, 03:38 AM

im eather geting an slk-7 or slk-800, im not planing on overclocking or anything and im going to be getting a 2200+ or 2400+, is the slk-800 worth the extra money?

im also geting the sunnon ultra high speed 80mm fan

scapegoat · 08-February-03, 05:33 AM

i would say not mejohn.... the Sk7 and theSLK800 are pretty simllar and if you dont need the extra performacen i would save the ten bucks and go with the 7

me_john85 · 08-February-03, 02:54 PM

Ok thanks scape thats what i was thinking too, i wouldnt mind the 800 but i dont really need it and im trying to save money for when i go to germany, and im trying to build a computer and i have $40 save for germany my computer is eating up my money

GBorrelli · 09-February-03, 01:01 AM

Will this fit on an Asus A7N8X?

BigAkita · 09-February-03, 02:28 AM

Me-John, you are sucking wind if all you have is $40 to spend there. But, I lived in Europe for about 15 years, 12 of them in Germany. If you want some info or insight, let me know.

TheOutcast · 09-February-03, 02:54 AM

So the difference in temps between a SK-7 and an SLK-800 if using the same fan would be roughly what? 1-2 deg C or so?
