Packaging and Contents

The test bench came in a nondescript cardboard box with a few Dimastech logos on the side. However, this is where the generic look ends. When opening the box this writer was greeted with a foam sheet, which when removed reveals component cut-outs for the bench table! Thats right, the expanded foam had cut outs that are the exact shape of the components. These provide great protection and are packed in a series of layers.

Once the foam cover has been removed, the components were then revealed.  The first layer consisted of  basic screws and bolts to assemble the bench table, with a long screw designed to put extra pressure on a heatsink for the processor, to allow for better contact.

The second layer consists of all the fan mounting brackets the bench table will use. The beauty of this product is that essential the fan brackets can be placed anywhere on the bench table to allow effective cooling over the motherboard, graphics card and processor.

Overall the quality of the powder coating on the fan and PCIE brackets was above par, with finger prints barely showing-such as the Mountain Mods horrible ‘Mirror Black’.  Just as we were becoming inpressed with the overall powder coating then we find an issue. The bracket that clamps on and arches over the bench table for CPU pressure, looks like either the temperature of the oven in baking on the powder coat was not quite hot enough, or some grit from the sandblasting was still present.

At last we come to the third and final layer and this is the bench table itself. It is with hopes that Dimastech can redeem themselves with the powder coating form the large bracket. This is a pity as the rest of the brackets are of superior quality workmanship.

We now inspect the bench table itself. The first and most noticeable thing is the anodising/powder coating on this product. The bench table sports a metalic grey finish and the quality is simply oustanding in every aspect, both in looks and texture; so a “well done” to Dimastech is most certainly due at this point.
