what about the swiftech blocks

pompoen · 06-14-2002, 05:27 AM

what do you think about the MCW478-UH, it seems a nice block but no-one here talks about it?

any thoughts or experiences, please share them with me.

I'm sure they are great blocks, but swiftech has been historically expensive, while offering barely better performance than dden

Last time i checked, swiftech blocks where made out of alu. (maybe i'm wrong now) Just like innovatek ones they may be great, but i tend to avoid alu because my system is all copper...

thx for the replies

the swiftech blocks are partially made out off alu, the blue part is anodized alu, but because its anodized it wont give a problem

all i really want is some people to say: yeah good choice, in my mind i have allready decided, i just want some people to confirm hehe
