Packaging

darkFlash's Nebula DN-360 comes in very elaborate and colorful box. The front displays a full-color image of the cooler and also highlights compatibility with the majority of motherboard vendor's ARGB software alongside support for Intel's LGA1700 and AMD's Socket AM5. Looking on the left side users will find the product name along with support for both Intel and AMD's current mainstream socket. Once you get to the back you will find the cooler's specifications as detailed on this review's first page along with a list of features.

Users are also informed that the top infinity mirror pump cap can rotate 360 degrees. On the left side, there's another image of the cooler and a list of design features, including an enlarged copper cold plate for improved contact area. The back of the packaging revisits the cooler's features and lists supported CPU sockets.


Taking a quick look on the right side shows only the cooler name and darkFlash logo but little else. Meanwhile, the top has a full color image of the cooler and the bottom has the darkFlash branding again.

The internal packaging is par the course in that the Nebula DN-360 comes in a cardboard tray that provides the bulk of support and protection, along with a foam sheet that sits on top. While I would prefer to see a bit more foam or protection in general, it is passable since the cooler arrived in pristine shape.


The cooler does support most mainstream sockets from AMD and Intel, including AM4 and AM5 of the former and LGA115x, LGA1200, and LGA1700 of the latter. It also directly lists support for older AMD sockets. Beyond that you get all the parts needed to install the cooler, as expected.
