heatspreaders?
why dont they make the heatspreaders on intel and amd chips with copper, it would drop the cpu temp a great deal for what it would cost

that didnt tell me anything. i dont mean the heatsinks. i mean the heat spreader on top of the actual cpu core, they make them out of aluminum but aluminum is only half as good at transferring heat

what your asking for is why dont they use copper on the Integrated HeatSink? simple: they do.... watch what happens when you lap an AMD 64 processor |

hehe... I'm pretty sure there is a reason why those IHS's are the way they are.. the higher clocked A64's can get quite hot, so if they didnt do that right.. i doubt we would see many of them running atm
