Xigmatek will shortly introduce a new heatpipe direct touch heatsink called the Skeets S9686. Frostytech got a closed door first look at a prototype of the new Xigmatek heatsink at Computex last month, and what got them excited is the unique stacking of heatpipes. The S9686 cooler has three double-decker pairs of heatpipes, one 6mm diameter heatpipe above an 8mm diameter heatpipe.
