Abstract: The significance of skiving is that there is no interface to be concerned with between the fins and base like solder.

Dynatron DC1206BMY Heatsink From All Angles
The Fan:
The bright green fan has eleven blades and measures 60mm is size. The fan draws power from a standard three-pin motherboard header which supports RPM monitoring.

Heatsink Top:
An aluminum fan shroud supports the fan 5mm above the tips of the copper fins. The skived fins are divided into two sections as you can see, but this has more to do with versions of coolers which have the center cut away for a socket A clip than any specific thermal reasons.

Side A:
The side of the heatsink is pretty bare, and measures about 42mm tall. Air is drawn in from the top of the heatsink and exhausted out either side in what is termed an impingement orientation. The fan shroud is held in place with four small screws which are screwed directly into the copper fins.

Side B:
The copper base measures about 4mm thick and the fins about 0.3-0.4mm wide. Each of the 35 fins are spaced about 1.3mm apart to ensure good airflow. One of the nice benefits of a skived heatsink is that the tips of the fins come to a knife edge which poses little resistance to air. There is no solder joint since the fins and base are one and the same. Each fin measures 23mm tall.
Heatsink Base:
The base has been face milled perfectly flat, and is very smooth. Only a small amount of thermal compound should be used with a base of this finish. Too much compound would actually get stuck between the heatsink and processor heatspreader instead of filling in the few microvoids in the metal surface finish.
