nope, not unless you vacuum weld the pieces
you have a very conventional thermal joint using water as the thermal gap filler
better than air, but not so good
the reason you cannot 'see' any difference (if you've tested this) is that no heat is going up those pins anyway

I agree, definitely not as good as a solid copper pin, but considering all other factors, be it manufacturing, or cost-effectiveness. I see it to be as effective as it can be...
true that the heat might not even get that far up and that would in fact be the ideal situation. The faster the heat can be suspended in the liquid, the faster is can get removed by the liquid.

I have tried it yes...

let's just say reliability is not where I want it to be... never had trouble with it, but I'm not willing to risk potential catastrophe, just for some eye-candy, besides, it looks good for the first week......
