I noticed that some of the larger P4s come with a heatsink that has a copper base and thin fins. Kinda like this.

Does anyone use one like it? If so, how does it work?

These may come in the new 3.2 or 3.0C retail boxed processors, but most people are going for 2.4c or 2.8c overclocking and will prefer top notch coolers like the Zalman 7000CU or 7000ALCU which is quiet and a really good cooler.

It should be Intel original cooler.
It will provide decent cooling, but not quite ideal for overclocking applications.

I knew it was the original Intel HSF. I wondered if they worked better since they had the copper bottom vice all aluminum. I bought one to try it out on my 2.4B. I'll post a follow-up later.
