Packaging and box contents
The packaging for this block is the same that has been used on previous generations of CPU blocks manufactured by XSPC. One can notice the black and red packaging through out the range.
Inside the box we find that the packaging is literally crammed with the components needed to install the waterblock onto the system board.
A slot has been machined from the side of block. This enables the inlet to redirect water flow from the edge to the centre of the block. This then lets the consumer have the choice of fitting compression barbs. The Heatkiller is unable to utilise the aforementioned barbs without the use of 45 degree angle fittings. A good thought is that this block combines the advantages of a low flow and a high flow block in one tidy package. It has the ability to direct the flow of the water directly onto the centre of the cooling area of the block and still be able to use compression barbs (an advantage that comes with low flow blocks)
As clearly shown and as previously mentioned, the chrome bracket is not as highly polished as it should be, in addition to the mild-steel screws, however on the final sales version this will be changed and this will not effect performance at all.
