The OCZ Vanquisher comes in a blue and white box that gives you more of a mechanical or tech feel. It's not as flashy as other manufactures products, but none the less it still serves the purpose. On the sides of the box you will find the Key Features, Specifications, and Application information. This will easily answer any questions that you might have if your buying this off the shelf in a store.
After removing the contents of the box you will be greeted with the Vanquisher being sandwiched between two formed plastic pieces to protect the cooler. As can be seen in the above photo, there are not many extras here. The Vanquisher comes shipped with the Intel mounting bracket installed and the AMD clip laying on the front half of the formed plastic.
Pulling the cooler out you can get an idea of the overall size of it. The fan and frame work is a unique design, which is a nice change when compared to the standard fans on the market. The Vanquisher is fairly large heatpipe cooler that utilizes three large heatpipes to transfer the heat from the base to the cooling fins. It also uses a 92mm PWM fan that is rated at 1,000 - 2,300 RPMs.
