    Good find,
    albpm
    The new hedgehog heatsink is of a layered construction and this may explain,although it beats an Alpha,the difference is small.
    Also explains why my sterling silver plate on a heatsink didn't cool as well as I expected.
    Do you know of a place that sells small copper water jackets(for water cooling)?
    Looking for 2 1/4 in.x 1 3/4in.
    Thanks
