    This is machining process called skiving.

    It must be very satisfying to engineer this and then see the result in real life.

    This is mainly for GPUs, since they have thinner, and wider heatsinks. Most of the CPU heatsinks are welded.

    Product/manufacturing engineering must be so interesting

    I think my eyes just had an orgasm.

    This is like porn without sex but stills makes you came.

    It’s cheaper and faster to do it this way.

    This belongs in r/engineeringporn

    Thats probably for liquid coolers. Air coolers are punch and milled.

    Hard to be mad at some slightly bent fins now, is it?

    Larger heat sinks are usually an extrusion that comes out the correct shape and then machined to more precise sizes.

    This is brilliant, I imagine it’s 99% lossless, super efficient

    No, it’s simply fried in oil as you can see

    Damn, this is cutting edge technology right here

    I never cared about how radiators are made, but this is looking cool.

    …op you really thought fins were welded on separate?..
