copper is good in absorbing heat but its very hard to disperse heat... at least harder than alu, thats the reason why they use alu fins... i think that the reason  well here is my logic... the copper base and heatpipe absorb the heat from the processor and then transfer them to the alu fin and the fan will cool down the fins.... correct me if i am wrong This post has been edited by sup3rfly: May 30 2007, 10:55 AM

QUOTE(kmarc @ May 31 2007, 07:28 AM) That's true. We're already into discussion about thermodynamics!!! The discussions were theorectical and what we need are hard facts. If two heatsink of identical design, heatpipes + aluminium fins and heatpipes + copper fins (disregarding weight), who would win? Any data? well...the full copper will win but it requires higher cfm fan to cool it down...thats why u see the xp90C is so good last time  full copper definately better than copper + alu but in term of efficiency as fan cfm vs performance, copper + alu will win
