DeepCool Assassin IV CPU Cooler Review

Packaging

The box is pretty minimal, with durable cardboard forming the actual box and then a slipcover with the Assassin IV branding on; likely so they can use the same box for multiple products, which makes sense.

All the boring technical stuff is on the back, sockets, sizes, and RPM, so a big thumbs up for showing a product photo and all the specifications, as that’s important.

The box is very tough, and on the interior, there are thick protective foam layers around the cooler and a component box on the side.

The box includes all the brackets for supported AMD and Intel sockets, grease cleaning solution, an additional fan bracket, and one of the largest tubes of thermal paste I’ve seen included with a cooler. Oh, and there’s an L-shaped screwdriver, which is Philips on one end, and a small Allankey on the other, which is really cool.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
