Tbred B + SK-6?

[Damascus]

I have an older SK-6 heatsink which has worked fine on my Thunderbird. Just picked up a 1800+ Thoroughbred B chip and I was wondering if the SK-6 is up to the task of cooling it? (and maybe a little bit of overclocking?)

sk6

supports up to 1.533(1800+) and thats with a delta screamer, I wouldn't try it..

it should be fine, T birds ran a lot hotter than Tbreds.

I don't know how similar they are, but I've got an SK7 cooling a 1700+ @ 2400MHz...

They look similar but SK7 uses 80mm versus 60mm for the SK6. Well that sounds good enough for me. I'll give it a shot but if my chip gets cooked, it's on you. lol Thanks.
