Default Which cooler?
Which one is better and why? I'm looking to get one from a different website (ebay) for my 9500 Pro

Cheaper one

More expensive one

Shouldn't the 2nd one be better? Why?

The first one has a bigger heat exchanger but the second one may be better

Is it because the second one is Al and Cu while the first one only has Alumium?

Yes. I'd get the first one though, that's similar to HIS Hightech and that always scores lower in the heat department when comparing GPUs.
