Reviewed by Think Computers

Well the Ruby Orb did not perform that way I would have liked it to, but it does run very quiet which is important to many people. I think if Thermaltake would make a revised version of the Ruby Orb that was made of copper rather than aluminum it would perform much better. If you are not going to be doing any CPU intensive work and want a cool-looking CPU cooler then the Ruby Orb would be a good choice. ..

FAQ

Why is copper based heat sink better than aluminum based solution?

The short answer to the question is the fact that copper conducts heat better than aluminum. Engineers utilize thermal conductivity (W/m*K) value to measure the effectiveness of a material. In this case, copper has a thermal conductivity of ~401 W/m*K and aluminum is ~237 W/m*K. To put it in perspective, wood has a thermal conductivity value of 0.04 ~ 0.4 W/m*K and concrete is 1.7 W/m*K, that is why wood does not get quiet as hot as concrete on a hot sunny day.
