Socket Cooler Roundup Question

I'm somewhat confused by something on this review. The test was performed on a Socket-A board (KT7-Raid, I think) but Socket-370 is also mentioned. Will all of the coolers mentioned fit both sockets? 😕
 
What about a slotket? I assume the hedgehog would be too heavy since it's made of copper, but are the others (esp. the Taisol) too big/heavy as well?
 
I'm not sure if anyone has had a problem with a kanie hedgehog/plus slotket yet. WIth the exception of that one, i'm pretty sure the rest will work great on slotkets, barring any capacitors on the slotket that block the heatsink.

The other issue with slotkets is how many DIMM slots you might cover with the hsf. P3's, even when OCed are not the fire-breathing dragons that OCed BIRDS are.

Quick update, watch out for the new 3 notch clips, not sure they fit well on socket 370. AMD requires much higher clip pressure so you might need to tweak the clip a bit for a p3.
