Terribly sorry to tell you this again, but from a thermal point of view, this is a little stupid. As everythng is just pure copper, the heat will just accumulate inside the "cooler", you'll need quite a good airflow to get rid of the stored energy.

In first post I stated I want to put a copper heatsink passive cooler but once checked performance I saw copper absorbs fastly heat than aluminium, but effectively this heatsink needs fan to dissipate the heat. Aluminium transfers the heat to air the easy manner than a copper heatsink.

Project changed and copper heatsink will have 2 front and 2 back fans blowing air heatsink.
