| Why not? How much would you think that 400gr of copper actually costs to the company? **** all. I can't understand why they won't adopt the "pull air out of the case through the backplate" design, that HIS so beautifully displays? |

| if a large company like Intel, who make a nice profit with each sale, use aluminum; then a smaller company like nVidia or ATI will surely not do otherwise;

| They're all cheap basterds I tell'ya. Volume doesn't matter. If they can make a 100 $ profit per 1000 units, by using aluminium then they will use aluminium. |

if AMD was able to mass produce their A64 in large volumes they would out price Intel easily; but since they don't have a large VOLUME, they keep the price higher so they can still make some profit. situation now: AMD sells 100 FX-55 at $100 profit situation how it should be: AMD sells 1000 FX-55 at $50 profit in the 2nd situation we all win, AMD = more profit, Buyers = Lower Price
