Poor man's heatsink setup - from 48°C to 35°C (118°F to 95°F)

Hi Wolfenstein.

There is also another detail: They are good. But in terms of raw material content (volume) and air to metal surface, they are lacking in comparison to those shown above.

I have used them extensively in my RaspPi 0-1-2-3 setups. And they work fine. But they will not give you as many delta degrees as a big one will. Unless you install a fan that'll keep you awake at night. And even then: what good is a heatsink if you have a wind turbine?

It's just a matter of the capability to take heat on the flat side, distribute it to the fins and then let the air take the heat away. More material, more fins, more possible heat dissipation.

Have a most wonderful day.
Best regards.
