From the web-site:

Quote:
Extreme performance:

1/2" OD tubing for optimal flow rate
Core Technology: Patent pending Diamond-Pin Matrix© copper base plate for optimal heat transfer, and turbulent flow: outperforms all previously released Swiftech products, with up to 20% cooler processor temperature!
Otherwise known as cleverly worded marketing trash.

It does not state to which previously released Swiftech product it's referring to.

Heck, it could even be referring to 20% better than a MCX370 air-based heatsink, which is a previously released Swiftech product.

ie. the stated information through having no solid basis of reference from a performance standpoint, is totally meaningless.

The intention is to imply 20% better than any other Swiftech product through the way that statement is worded, but this really isn't what it's saying at all.

It could even be just 1% better than the MCW462-UH, and 20% better than a MCX370. Who knows? None of us really do after those words.
