Like i said, heatsink design is tricky, as there are several ways you can make it perform: such as LOT'S of airflow, NOISY, and guaranteed to work, with moderate fin count. OR another extreme, like these large tower heatsinks, using heatpies densely around the CPU, then efficiently transferring the heat as vapor to a large set of fins. This method works amazingly well, and better uses a given surface area of fins, than a simple heatspreader, fins design.
What kind of experiment did you do?

As far experiment - you know the answer, right :)
