Design and Functionality

In fact, it doesn’t make much sense to go deep into constructive details about the new copper modification of the well-familiar cooler. Therefore, in this section of our review we will simply look at this beauty from all angles and recall its key peculiarities:

The cooler measures 132 x 161 x 63mm. the replacement of aluminum heatsink plates with copper ones increased the weight of the heatsink from 790g to 1900g! The number doesn’t really give you an idea of the actual cooler weight, so I suggest that you find something comparable to Thermalright TRUE Copper Ultra-120 eXtreme in weight and size and then imagine that THIS goes onto your processor and in most cases is positioned in a horizontal plane…

The cooler looks remarkably beautiful. Six copper heatpipes 6mm in diameter hold 52 copper plates, each ~0.45mm thick. The plates are spaced out with ~1.8mm gaps:

The heatsink effective surface area makes ~8050 sq.cm. The plates edges are slightly bent in opposite directions, which allows making better use of the airflow created by the fan(s):

Each plate is polished and has manufacturer logo embossed on it:
