black is excellent in heat disipation when it is like the sun not a heatsink like his... if this was the case why are every computer heatsink out there from factory to the aftermarket coolers silver...

reason is cause the metal is the sinking of heat via direct contact color is just to make it look good and personally i like the green but i also like the black like on my futurebit moonlanders

Because silver is the bare aluminum, it's cheaper to make them slightly bigger than go through a painting step. Actually anodizing would probably be better since it's thinner. I built this power supply about 40 years ago, it mostly ran hot until I painted the heat sinks black. Nothing else I built 40 years ago is still running.

Anyway it's too bad there isn't a BM1387 stickminer, or something in the < 100 watt range.
