Thoughts? Rants? Oh yes, please rant if you are so inclined. I enjoy those ![]() To me it looks solid. Single slot, looks to be a good performer (could be "the best") and not a terrible buy at $63 (after all, you do get ramsinks). |

Ramsinks are like what, $20 and $40 for waterblock. A bargain IMO. I prefer these blocks over full coverage behemoth. Too excessive.
To bad they can't sell the block by itself because I have ramsink surplus. Still dont understand why they released mcw-55 and the storm to replace them so soon. |

seems kinda obvious. Like the Apogee, the MCW60 is not made in the US and is prolly cheaper for Swiftech to produce. More $ in their pocket.

Finally, presented with interior pics! Thank you!
Yep, cheaper (more cost efficient) design. Again, 'bout time. I suspect that Storm wasn't a big hit. |

why do you need ramsinks?
what is wrong with the stock/reference ram heatsink on nvidia cards? I think a lot of people didn't like the push-fits, and swiftech lost sales as a result. 1/2" barbs are key. |

I wonder if this new block would be the Maze 4, or the MP-01 in terms of performance.

Looks to be a good performer, IMO. At $45, I think it's also a good value. Agree about the fittings. I think it would be interesting to bundle the Apogee, MCW-60, and MCW-30 as a package for $90. I'd bite at that.

I'd perfer Storm, HE120.3, zerex and a fillport instead, but I still think this is one of the best kit's out there. |

355 could be what they're referring to the newer DDC Ultra / Pro as...
