Xigmatek Nepartak S983 HDT CPU Cooler Review

Contents & Packaging

Keeping in style with Xigmatek’s flamboyant and colourful packaging, the packaging is not your average cuboid; instead the curved front has a cut out window giving a sneak preview of the heatsink inside. The stylish swirls at the bottom which presumably are meant to represent air and cooling look very stylish. The main features are also listed at the top to provide some information.

The back sees the full table of specifications along with some contact information at the bottom; on the side an image of the base (HDT) is displayed.

A number of accessories are included mainly for installation purposes:

• LGA 775 Push-Pins X 2
• LGA 775 Push-pin Screw X 2
• AM2 & K8 Clip X 1
• High performance Thermal Grease X 1
• Anti-vibration rubber X 4
• Fan X 1
• Manual

The anti-vibration mounts are Xigmatek’s alternative to wire clips for installing the fan; the advantage is that that they also act as vibration dampeners.
