New looks come with a new package also. After some complaining from my side about the Coolermaster package they seems to have done some changes to it and made it really easy to open now, the package is still really protective though. As we can see this new cooler has a unique look and it looks like nothing I have seen before. The fan is formed as a airplane engine! On the back of the package we find some specifications etc

The standard 3,5 bracket and for the slots in the back. Since it has a fan controller you can place it either in the front or back. You get some thermal compound with the cooler but I recommend Artic Silver 3. New design is just the first name when you look at the cooler.

This is the backside of the fan which shines red as fire when its turned on. Its like the exhaust in a airplane engine… Later in the review there will be some pictures with the fan in action.

The clip could have been better. There is a place where you can put the screwdriver but the screwdriver can slip since its not a hole its more like a 2 mm piece you push down. I could use my hands to push the clip down though so its not a problem at all… Nice fan controller which gives you the opportunity to decide how loud you want the fan to be. This can be mounted in the back and in the front of the case whichever you prefer.

JET ENGINE! It really does look like it. Does it perform like one then? Well we will see later in the review. This is a new heatsink from Coolermaster called copper based with aluminum stacked fins. Looks like it is really well done but does it cool down the cpu?
