Although the MCX775-V seemed to perform on par with the Intel stock cooler, it's actually a much better solution. Both coolers were quiet. With the noise apparently at the same level, the MCX775-V cools much better. While consumers will probably see the difference as no big accomplishment, it is extremely hard to gain that extra one-degree in performance. The MCX775-V also allows the use of a high CFM fan, such as the well-known Vantec Tornado. The combination of the heat sink paired with the use of a high CFM fan really helped with performance. With a good drop to 37.5C, high overclocking is definitely accomplishable. Once again, Swiftech easily earns the Editor's Choice award for ease of installation, good looks, and high performance.
