I am tring to find a heatsink that will perform close to the slk 800 900, I have the 800 now and have had probs since i got it 50 c under load with Xp1800 @2GHZ , I seemed to have better temps with copper face and aluminum sides weird, Any ideas would be big help, thanks

Well, I have no idea what is the best HS besides those SLKs, but the Coolermaster Aero 7+ is a damn good Heatsink/Fan combo. Go find reviews for yourself...it is shown to actually cool your CPU cooler than SLKs + 80mm fans can, and sound a lot quieter while doing it too. It is $34.99 on Newegg, by the way.

Just thought i'd point that out to you.

I love my 8045. It's now about a year and a half old and it still holds its own against Thermalright's best.

I was looking at pictures of the Epox 8RDA+ and the pictures I saw has the 4 holes around the motherboard so it should work.
