just a few notes on the copper foam heatsink article found here:
http://www.overclockers.com/articles1274/
he mentions several times that cooling capacity diminishes quickly when the amount of foam increases, but fails to mention that its because of the relativly low pressure design of the fans used.
i would be intereted in a newer test with say 1" foam and a blower, which would have the power to really push some air through that much.
sorry if my first post in this section is a little lacking in thought/detail, i promise the article is a quick read. i thought it might be more interesting to post here than emailing joe about it.
