No matter how the CPU is produced, you still only ever need one heatsink.

Most heat sinks are made from aluminium or copper or both, anyone know of other metals / alloys that have been used ?

The thermoelectric cooler, or Peltier Cooler, is a solid-state heat pump that uses the Peltier effect to move heat. The modern commercial TEC consists of a number of p- and n- type semiconductor couples connected electrically in series and thermally in parallel. These couples are sandwiched between two thermally conductive and electrically insulated substrates. The heat's pumping direction can be changed by altering the polarity of the charging DC current
