There is certainly a level of truth in this statement, as many heatspreaders use low conductivity materials and have flat surface areas - all of which hinder the convection of heat into the surrounding air. One of the more recent methods of removing heat from computer components is using heatpipes.
This method uses pipes filled with a small quantity of liquid that evaporates when heated, taking the heat away from the surface. Once the vapor has cooled, it returns to a liquid, falls back down to the heat source and can begin the whole process again.
This method has proven to be extremely effective and has recently been used in many award winning CPU heatsinks. Specifications The following information has been taken directly from OCZ's website :. Nice kit for a very nice price Quote. The supply of the two MB PC memory modules … The two memory modules are delivered in this packing: That is contained in the scope of delivery … OCZ supplies the two memory modules without an installation guide, but it should be also possible for less experienced users to install them easily, because the installation should be explained in the motherboard manual.

The first modules to be incorporated with the new Reaper heatspreader are rated at MHz and run at CL Although the OCZ Reaper HPC series was coined for enthusiasts, EPP eliminates the need for manual configuration and makes memory optimizations a household item for the complete range of consumers looking to maximize system performance through overclocking.
The addition of the extended fin array nearly doubles the total surface area available for heat dissipation while the heat pipes warrant near isothermicity throughout the entire design.
The result is a doubling in effective heat dissipation at equal delta t or, in real systems, a significantly lower operating temperature of the memory modules. I still remember the days when a heatspreader was the hot feature to have. With the Reaper HPC line of DDR2, OCZ has adopted a heatpipe cooling approach to maximize the cooling abilities and therefore, we hope, allow for higher voltages safely and higher overclocking speeds.
