Oh dear. One more time he submits the evidence that he has no idea of thermodynamics. Not at all. All this stuff only to distinguish himself.
The assignment of a good heatsink is to dissipate the heat to the air or ohter medium. But copper leads and accumulates the heat. Aluminum is much more better for. Not to mention about the weight...

Hello Backfire,
You are right, I dont have idea of thermodynamics then it means I can't build my own heatsink? Are you trying to leave me in evidence talking about what I know or what I dont know?
Agree that copper accumulates too much heat but Heatsink comes ready to install 2 front and 2 rear fans. So I don't see problem here either. Once tested the card without fan, I noticed that heatsink absorbs too much heat and this heat needs to be dissipated via air.
Equal condition the copper heatsink should improve the performance compared aluminium heatsink. This is my point. Perhaps I am wrong, we will see...
About weight- yes, and where is the problem? Card will perform less if heatsink is heavy? No, then where is the problem?
