Im in need of a new heatsink for my computers CPU. Sempron 2500+ which I plan to eventualy overclock. I was looking through and comparing a bunch of different cooling products. I know that liquid cooling would possibly be the best option. I just dont have the money for it. What I would like to know. What has higher efficiency, a solid copper 70 or so fin heatsink or a heatpipe rig?
 
Lol, great sig. I went away form my pc after clicking the link and thought something went wrong. :p


A heatsink with the heatpipes that is all copper would provide the best air cooling.

The best air cooler: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118223 (one that is even better, is the one they showed to get everyones attention, you needed firelights to get the fan spinning - they were supplied with it.)
 
lol yeah I don't even remember where I found that pic.

Alright thanks for the help.
I just wanted to know because a good heatsink is about the same price as a heatpipe rig.
thanks again.
 
i always thought those were really heavy and they put a lot of strain on ur mobo
