So I was researching heat sink materials and came to the realization Diamond would be the best material to use because of it's excellent thermal conductivity which exceeds copper five-fold, immune to radio frequencies, magnetic fields and radiation (perfect for space).
Problem is, diamond is extremely expensive and constructing an entire heat sink from diamond would be extremely expensive. The second best thing I could think of is buying diamond dust which is the leftover material from cutting diamonds and lacing it with thermal grease between the processor and heatsink.
What do you think of this idea? Do you think it would be practical or not?
