Information on Frostytech's test methodology is available here.
The Heatsink Fan:
The eleven bladed impeller rotates at a speed of 2800-to-3800RPM. Noise levels range from 48-57 dBA. The fan connects via standard 3-pin motherboard power connector and supports RPM monitoring.

Heatsink Top:
The 33 stacked copper fins are soldered to the two heatpipes which are bent into a "U" shape. Each fin is 66x50mm in size, and the copper heatpipe is soldered to the thin copper base plate. At the bottom are two small sections to stacked copper fins which are attached to the aluminum portion of the heatsink and don't really do much.

Heatsink Side A:
The aluminum base of the Vantec Mach 1 heatsink is just 4mm thick, and the small portion of it which is copper is just 2mm thick. The stacked copper fins are soldered to the copper base plate. Each fin measures ~0.3mm thick and spaced 1.25mm from the next.

Heatsink Side B:
The rear side of the copper fins has a slight detail to add to the visual effect. The copper fins at the base are soldered to the aluminum portion of the base. The red plastic fan shroud ducts the flow of air through and around the copper fins.

Heatsink Base:
The 34x66mm copper base has a sanded finish with a surface roughness of ~16 microinches. The copper is not perfectly flat, and is not flush with the surrounding aluminum portion of the base either.
