But the proper way is the whole cooling range of interactions or steps until the heat is disapated into the air off the rad. fins. Correct? So the advantage of silver over copper is diluted through the numerous stages of getting rid of the heat. Is this right?
Thanks for trying to help me guys.

Yep. You want to focus on the major points of heat transfer resistance, like the radiator, if you want to improve performance. Heat moves very efficiently across a piece of copper. There's no gain in improving that.
