Hi-Techreviews.com take a look at the Swiftech MCX775-V Heatsink

.the base of the MCX775-V is a whooping .50" thick, this massive piece of C110 copper will offer superior cooling and with this will come the benefit of a system that is much more stable. One of the keys to great cooling is high surface area, the more surface area you have the more air that can come in contact with it and thereby remove the heat from the heatsink. So what Swiftech has done is take the .50" copper plate we talked about earlier an populate the entire top of the heatsink with their patented aluminum helicoid pins. These thin aluminum pins promote increased turbulence for more efficient heat dissipation compared to traditional fin extrusions.
