The purpose of this thread is to get information on exactly what people are intendng to do when they watercool. What their goal is. (beisdes a high overclock).
From what I understand, Aluminum is good at getting cold and staying cold.
From what I also understant, Copper is good at getting hot and staying hot.
but not vice-versa for either of them.
So my question to you guys is, do you think of watercooling as a way of 1) removing heat from your processor or 2) chilling your processor off, making it cold?
Why where the first heatsinks, and most stock heatsinks, Aluminum rather than copper?
