Thermaltake Frio CPU Cooler Review

«« 1 2 3 4 5 6 7View All»»

Thermaltake has always used excellent design quality for product packaging, and the Frio packaging continues this fine tradition.  The packaging in general sports a black theme which seems to be popular amongst many computer part manufacturers.  The front of the box has an attractive picture of the Frio with a blue light splashed behind it.  There is also an oval banner proclaiming support for up to 220 watts of CPU heat dissipation.  Also noted on the front of the box is the inclusion of two 120mm fans, 5 heatpipes, and the 4 in 1 socket compatibility.  The back of the box is loaded with pictures of the contents along with the feature set of the Frio cooler.  The side of the box lists the specifications of the cooler and the CPU socket compatibility.

Lets have a look inside and see what Thermaltake has provided in the package. Upon lifting the box lid you are presented with an instruction sheet and a warranty information pamphlet.  A small white box containing all the installation hardware is tucked in to the left side of the styrofoam protective insert, along with an additional 120mm fan for use in a push/pull installation.  You can also see in the picture below all the hardware needed for the different Intel and AMD CPU sockets.  Thermaltake has done an excellent job of providing everything a user would need to get the most from this product
