i am testing my OC knowledge so i need a new fan cuz i use stock one

Yes copper is almost twice as conductive as aluminum.

I don't even know what a Spire Fourier is...gonna have to look that one up...

EDIT: Just looked it up...terrible...go with the Mugen 2 if that is your only other choice. Xig Dark Knight is another great inexpensive choice and possible CM 212+ if you want something even cheaper that still does well.

P.S. just because it looks copper does not mean it cools better. The heat-pipes on a cooler cool better then the fins alone. The surface area of the fins are used to dissipate the heat from the heat-pipes but if there is not enough heat being transferred via the heat-pipes it makes the fin arrays pointless.

EDIT2: post 1666....scarwy!
Mugen 2 is far superior.
ROFL! The Spire on this review only cooled 3c better with max fan speed then the stock AMD cooler....pathetic.
