Front of the box
The packaging is very similar to the Tower 120 Extreme one we saw before, sporting the same lightning blue and black colour coordination and the image of a battleship signifying the Propeller origins of the cooler. Pictured at the front is the cooler itself, and a few key features it holds. As usual, Tuniq really attracts users with their aesthetically pleasing packaging and with the design of their nickel coated cooler.


Back of the box with specifications listed
Typical of Tuniq's informative self and professionalism, all the specifications are listed at the back of the cardboard packaging, including that of the cooler's, the thermal paste's and the fan's. With a 90.65 CFM fan and 4x8mm heat pipes, the cooler looks promising despite its overall size.


Side of the box with features listed
On the side, all the main features are listed including the packaging content, the key characteristics of the cooler such as the use of the Core-Contact technology and 8mm thick heat pipes, and a list of compatible motherboard sockets. This particular sample does not list LGA1156 but the Tuniq site states that it does and as such samples hitting the retail market will have no problems working on this new socket by Intel. Further to this is support for all major sockets dating back to LGA775 for Intel and Socket 754 for AMD!


Unpackaging
Inside the main outer packaging is a blank box holding two others, one with the mounting kit and the other securing the cooler. As shown, a nice handle is provided for carrying the box so be safe in the knowledge that the cooler is very securely packaged and won't easily be damaged in transit.


The cooler securely wrapped in a clear plastic cover
The cooler is inside a hard plastic box with the fan placed on top but not secured. A handy and detailed manual is also provided for ease of installation although for the most part, it is very intuitive. This cooler will have support for the most number of sockets in all the coolers we have tested and given that the Alpenföhn Nordwand and Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme uses the same mounting system, expect to see the same support for those other coolers. The manual is highly detailed and illustrated for ensuring a safe and pain free installation procedure.
