Copper Core "ThermoEngine"

Published: | Posted By:

I think it all started with the Alpha line of heatsinks. The concept was this, you have a large mass of copper that is in contact with your heat source, in this instance your processor. By nature copper conducts heat better than aluminum so the heat is removed from the source very quickly. You then wrap aluminum around the copper to transfer the heat into the air.

So what we have here is an efficient heatsink design similar to the ThermoEngine with a copper core.
