ID-Cooling FX360 PRO Review - Shots Fired @ Arctic 16

ID-Cooling FX360 PRO Review - Shots Fired @ Arctic

A Closer Look »

Packaging


The packaging sticks with ID-Cooling's tried and true black and orange design theme, with the top showing the FX360 PRO in all its understated glory. Switching to the right side shows the ID-Cooling branding and little else. However, flipping to the bottom is where the specifications can be found along with supported sockets, which includes Intel's next generation LGA1851 socket.


The remaining panels are fairly sparse with only the product name and company branding showing up. I would have liked to have seen the warranty length printed on the box somewhere just for consumer benefit, but with different regions and different requirements I can see why it may be omitted. With all that said, the outer packaging is par the course with no crazy aspects to speak of.

Inside the box, there's plenty of foam to ensure the cooler and its parts stay secure during shipping, which I find reassuring. While the standard cardboard tray is adequate, in my experience with many liquid coolers, those packed in foam tend to withstand rough handling better.


Intel and AMD socket support is good with all the mainstream sockets supported. While AMD HEDT is left out, it's not a major concern for this price point. Furthermore, the unit is ready to go out of the box for Intel's next generation LGA1851 socket which is nice to see. Beyond that everything you need is provided, but you won't find any extras beyond that.

Common parts supplied for mounting include:
  • 12x Radiator screws
  • 12x Fan screws
