SystemCooling has taken a look at the Thermalright SLK-800 Heatsink.



Since the release of the now famous Thermalright SK-6 many months ago enthusiasts have clamored for an 80mm version. The cry was renewed recently with the introduction of the SLK-600. Well, it seems Thermalright was listening and the SLK-800 is their response!!
While the SLK-800 and 600 resemble the SK-6, they are in fact very different and are a much improved design. The single pronged clip of the SK-6 has been replaced, with the SLK-800 and 600 featuring a new improved three-pronged clip that provides rock solid attachment to the motherboard's socket. Another added feature is that the clip is locked within the heatsink meaning that you/I can't mistakenly put the clip in backwards.
