Question:

Which will cool my computers ram better copper or aluminum?

I want to keep the ram cool i just bought and was wondering what type of heat sink would keep it cooler copper or aluminum i also have a fan on top of each if it mattersThanks

Answer:

Copper is the better choice. Copper conducts, as well as dissipates heat, about 1.8 times the effectiveness of aluminum. But copper costs around 2 to 3 times as more than aluminum, so copper heatsinks only need to be used on things putting off a lot of heat.
copper is better
copper it is a denser metal check the ocz ram with heatpipes
