If the base really is nickel-plated copper (as one would hope it should be!!) then why on earth does this article suggest it's made of aluminium? Poor journalism.
Okay, not really answering my own question about weight, but this thing is huge. I found that this image from their website puts the size into some perspective - look at that MoBo being dwarfed by the heatsink: https://www.bequiet.com/en/cpucooler/1378

Any words on weight for this beast? I suspect they went all-aluminum mostly to keep the weight under at least some control.HStewart - Friday, June 8, 2018 - link
