From Swiftech site:
After months of intense work, we are proud to introduce an entirely new class of heatsinks, which surpasses all previous high-performance Swiftech products by an order of magnitude (up to 6°C better at extremely low air flow rates).
Features highlights:
1) Hybrid copper base, thin aluminum pin heatsink: the massive 1/2" thick copper base provides superior heat capacity for unparalleled stability in extreme overclocking applications. The thin aluminum pins promote increased turbulence for more efficient heat dissipation compared to traditional fin extrusions.
2) Patented Helicoid pin design (U.S. patent 6,469,898): pins are individually machined in an helicoid shape, to increase their surface area, and further enhance heat dissipation efficiency.
3) Several patents pending for concentrically aligned rows of pins, bent at multiple angles. The spacing and angles between the concentric rows has been precisely calculated to optimize cooling and reduce noise at air flow levels as low as 22 CFM and 23 dbA.
4) The MCX462-V™ is optimized to work with 80 and 92mm fans and ships with brackets for both. One can appreciate the size of the heatsink once a 92mm fan is installed, as shown below. Notably, the size of the heatsink base fits entirely within AMD® height restriction areas, affording the MCX462-V™ full compatibility with most (*) AMD compliant motherboards.

User comments: :eek:..me likey the heatsink.. wanna compare it with SLK-900 :P
