Packaging

Mushkin uses their corporate green on the package to clearly identify the memory as a Mushkin product. The back has some generic installation and troubleshooting information.


The black heatspreaders look very nice on the memory. On the upper part you find the typical Mushkin heatspreader form which allows a little tube to be inserted through it for water cooling your memory.
