Akasa supplies the Venom inside a large cardboard box with a green theme and a small clear window at the front. The window is too small to provide a clear view of the entire cooler and only the green bladed fan is clearly visible.
There is no picture of the cooling body itself on any of the sides of the box, which is fairly strange. Inside the box the cooler is encased inside a plastic shell body, ensuring its safety during transportation.
Akasa have bundled only the absolutely necessary parts with the Venom cooler, no fancy trinkets or case badges are to be found inside this package. The bundle consists of the two backplates and retention brackets needed for the installation of the cooler on various sockets, a tube of normal thermal compound (which is disappointing for a product of this class), 8 rubber installation studs for the main fan and for a second fan (not included) and finally a typical black and white manual.
Seems pretty good for the price. not sure it would be my first choice though.
Looks quite well designed. performance is excellent. When did akasa get into CPU coolers?
Seems really good considering, but it is up against the Frio. tough competition in this sector.
SAdly I dont think this is going to take the market by storm, its a nicely designed unit, but a little uninspiring in such a competitive area
Very decent showing, shame we didnt have intel results however.
Akasa? wow didnt know they made coolers. this seems alright actually, bit expensive.
