Conclusion
Swiftech has earned a reputation for manufacturing
high quality, high performance CPU coolers. The Swiftech MCX478-V is no
exception. It is a highly innovative heatsink offering superior cooling
performance at all levels. Its unique design proved to be quite
effective when using even a low noise, low CFM 80mm fan. It is safe to
say that the search for a high performance, low noise air-cooled solution is
now over. Its performance was quite exceptional, even when used with a
low CFM fan. Noise levels where at a bare minimum without sacrificing
performance. Despite its rather hefty price tag, it is well worth it
considering the quality, attention to detail and performance it offers.
It significantly outperforms the stock Intel cooler, making it a very worthy
upgrade.

Sidewinder Computers currently has this heatsink on sale for only
$47.95. There is also an AMD version of the same heatsink available at
the same price. Even the most hardcore overclocker should put the Swiftech
MCX478-V on the top of their list. Highly recommended.
