Copper

Reply in thread

Maybe you're right, but I remember than in the 2000s I've had identical cpu heatsinks in both copper/aluminum versions, and the aluminum one had better performance. And then they started to make hybrid ones, stating that the copper part was to allow rapid heat transference and the aluminum parts to improve dissipation. But maybe it was all marketing.

Anon tries to understand credit scores

Did this credit card score in the US come from a Black Mirror episode or something? Sure we have companies (in the EU) doing some customer scoring checks beforehand (for some utilities or services), but they operate mostly by accessing shared black lists from past collections systems or something, and I'm ok with that. But this US system looks scary!
