Packaging

Box contents:

• CPU Cooler
• Mounting clips for Socket 775
• Mounting clips for Socket 754, 939, 940
• Mounting clips for Socket 478
• Instruction manual
• Fan speed controller
• Fan power cable

The cooler's base plate is protected by a plastic foil which is easily removed. However, I found that a bit of the adhesive glue remained on the cooler's base. This should not affect cooling performance.


Like on all Scythe products the heatsink base is very flat and highly reflective. A few minor milling marks can be seen but these should not affect cooling performance.
