They look similar to the ones they use in low profile 1U/2U server racks

The fins look too thick in the photo to be copper. I'm pretty sure it's painted aluminum.

Copper fins come in a few thicknesses so its impossible to tell for sure from a photo but they are for sure 1U/2U low profile coolers on them Slotkets.

TennMax Lasagna CPU cooler used to be one that was fairly popular for dually duty in olden days of yesteryore back in the day of the past historically.

Moderner 1U copper probably do better though.

Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.

They would but ...they can be rather noisy when they ramp to 5000rpm, might be worth finding ones that come with a way to limit their top speed.
