The ancient god theme extends past the naming scheme with an artist’s impression of a forceful god holding a trident and seemingly possessing magical powers present on the front of the box. Important information such as the name, compatibility and key features of the cooler are also located on the box front.

A transparent plastic window on the right side of the box allows the customer a good view of the cooler’s main feature; the dual layer H.D.T. base.

Key features and an image of the cooler itself are located on the left side of the box.

The godly image continues through to the rear of the box amplifying the theme that Xigmatek have decided upon. 3 images show the appearance of the H.D.T base, double layer base and anti-vibration rubber fan mounts, all of which are featured on the Aegir. An extended specification table is always a welcomed addition to the rear of the box for easy comparison in a shop.

A hefty aluminium crossbar combined with all metal mounting plates and a tightening spanner should ensure a safe and secure installation process and mount. 8 anti-vibration rubbers allow the possibility of a dual fan setup. We were glad to see Xigmatek include a tube of thermal paste as opposed to the sachet which was bundled with their Loki. A tube is far cleaner and more convenient for users looking to mount their cooler more than once.

The inclusion of a strong, metal universal back plate is always a good insight to the quality on offer.

Xigmatek continue their trend of including a thorough instruction manual. A double sided 3×3 spread should provide ample assistance for novices looking to purchase an Aegir.
