The H55 is supplied in a medium sized box which is decorated with a green and white colour scheme. This differentiates it from the higher-end coolers in the Hydro series which are supplied in black and red packaging. The top of the box features a large image of the cooler itself alongside some details of the key features.
Turning the box around reveals some more details about the features and specifications of the H55. These include some temperature comparison graphs which give us an insight into the performance improvements we can expect to achieve with the cooler.
The box feels fairly durable and should protect the cooler well in transit.
Inside the box we find a plethora of accessories for mounting the cooler. There are mounting brackets supplied for all recent Intel and AMD platforms which should ensure good compatibility. Corsair also supply a fan for the cooler as well as a guide to facilitate installation.
Why would anyone buy a closed loop cooler be is Corsair or any other brand when they are inferior to a quality heatsink/fan combo in thermally efficiency, cost and noise? In addition closed loop as well as open loop liquid coolers do and have leaked causing expensive PC damage.
When you can buy a quality heatsink and fan for less and it performs better without any risk of water damage, it would be foolish to buy a closed loop cooler.
