MCX159-CU series Chipset Heatsinks for AMD® & Intel® platform motherboards
Introducing the Extreme Duty all-copper MCX159-CU chipset heatsink, a whisper-quiet cooling solution designed for motherboards with overclocked front-
side bus (Asus A8N-SLI compatible). This solution is also suggested as an alternative for use with liquid cooling systems in lieu of a chipset waterblock. It
provides in effect more than sufficient cooling performance without adding unnecessary restrictions to high-flow cooling systems. This will result in overall
lower temperatures at the CPU and VGA level, where it really counts", said Gabriel Rouchon, Swiftech's Chairman.
Features
The Extreme Duty all-copper MCX159-CU™ chipset heatsink, a whisper-quiet cooling solution designed for motherboards with overclocked front-side bus.
The all-copper forged thin-pin design provides nominally better performance than earlier MCX159 designs.
The Ultra quiet (18 dBA) VAPO bearing Sunon 40mm fan offers superior MTBF to most stock chipset fans, guaranteeing peace of mind for 5 years or more.
This extreme duty heatsink, coupled with Sunon's whisper quiet and high reliability fan make the MCX159-CU an ideal companion to our "V" series heatsinks.

This particular fan was selected specifically for its low noise characteristics.

Performance *
1.25°C/W
* C/W shown is the heat sink to air values, excluding thermal resistance of the TIM joint, which will vary depending on the thermal interface used and bench
test conditions. For reference, Swiftech's TIM joint bench test value is 0.07°C/W. All tests are performed in an environmental chamber using Industry
standard procedures, and calibrated equipment.
