We have already seen non-linear heatpipes layout in Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme heatsink. However, ThermoLab BARAM boasts an even more radical organization:

This is what it looks like on the scheme taken from the manufacturer’s web-site:

The cooler base is made of solid copper covered with a thin layer of nickel alloy protecting the copper base against oxidation during long-term use. There are grooves in the base beneath the heatpipes, which should improve the cooling efficiency. However, they are more shallow than the grooves we have seen on other cooling solutions.

The thinnest part of the cooler base measures 4mm. The barely noticeable traces indicate that the heatpipes are in fact soldered to the base. I can’t tell how the heatsink plates are fixed on the heatpipes, however, none of them wiggle or resound during work.

The cooler base boasts the highest quality finish:

But most importantly, the base plate is impeccably even: the thermal compound imprint on the glass surface and processor heat-spreader turned out truly immaculate:

You can attach a fan to the heatsink using two wire clips that catch on to the special groove on the side of the heatsink and the retention holes in the fan frame:

This is what ThermoLab BARAM looks like with a fan attached to it:

Since the heatsink is symmetrical ion length and in width, you can use two 120 x 120 x 25/38 mm fans at the same time. The shock absorbing silicon strips could be a good bonus here, because they are known to lower the fan vibrations received by the heatsink.
