Dan3, From what people say it is worthwhile as the lower conductivity means less heat and more speed at the same size. Going smaller reduces the heat but you are also going faster so a better conductor is needed. As another says you need to use special boundary materials to allow copper and aluminium to work together. I have heard they have solved this problem?? as with no solution they would stop running as the copper penetrated the aluminum under the accelerated diffusion brought on by the CPU heat.
