Motherboards.org Editor's Choice Winner

The Swiftech kit is an excellent water-cooling kit and should be everyone's first choice if they ever decide to go with a pre-assembled water-cooling setup. The entire group of components bundled together to make for one easy installation process. Not only that, with the use of the Radbox, users can see increased performance results much like the ones I've obtained here.

Just like everything else, I do have my nit and picks. The pump makes a whining noise but that can be drowned out by a simple case fan. The fan included with the radiator is not near silent but is bearable. I ran the setup for a couple of days and found no troubles at all. Filling and bleeding was fast and saved me lots of time. It also makes for easy draining as well, which is a big plus.

With the great bundle of the Swiftech kit, and its overall performance, I have no troubles with giving it an Editor's Choice award in the cooling category of products. Good job Swiftech, but what's next on your agenda? All in all a definite winner for the enthusiast who wants the best performance at a reasonable price.
