   >why do you need to polish the heatpipes
   It's not the heatpipes I polish but the contact surface of the heatsink.
   Doing so create a much better heat transfers.
   Thus heat get extracted much better from the cpu, thus less damages caused by electro migration, thus less energy needed by the fan too.
   
   >I've seen guys use isopropyl alcohol and wipe away the old thermal paste with that
   That's standard yes.
   
   >does polishing really make a measurable difference?
   Greatly in most cases. Around 10°C on average.
