Packing and Bundle
From the front of the box the cooler can been seen through the packaging. On the bottom left hand corner it shows that it’s also now compatible with Core i7. As well as the Nexus logo it also displays the XiR-2300 model number and boasts that it’s a Real Silent CPU Cooler and the “Aluminum edition”.
On the back of the box it provides some useful information about the cooler in various languages. This includes that it has a combination of the most advance technology available including heat pipes, skiveTek, ultra-thin fins and temperature control. It also provides details of which CPU sockets the cooler supports.
The left side of the box is fairly blank but displays a message in the bottom right corner advising that the cooler is developed by Nexus with engineering by CoolJag thermal solutions.
The right side of the box displays the detailed specifications of the cooler and fan, the full details of these can be found on the previous page of this review.
