Package and Accessories
The Silent Square comes in an original package with a plastic carry handle:
Painted a dark shimmering blue, the box has a transparent window you can have a look at the cooler through. The text on the box touts the Silent Square?s ability to cope with processors that have a typical heat dissipation of 130W (and a peak dissipation of 160W). The paper insert lists the cooler specs (a noise level of 18dBA, etc).
On the back side of the box you can see a picture of airflows the Silent Square creates when installed on a mainboard.
On the sides of the package there is exhaustive information about how to install the cooler and what technical characteristics it has.
These are the accessories you?ll get with your Silent Square:
- Universal mounting frame
- Soft-padded back-plate
- Two screws to fasten the frame on Socket 754/939/940 and four screws for LGA775, Socket 478 and AM2
- Four plastic spacers
- Universal fastening clip
- ASUS?thermal grease
- Installation Guide
The top and side plates of the Silent Square may be blue or black. Otherwise, there is no difference between the two versions of the product. I was testing a sample with a black plate.
