In Figure 8 we see the heatsink without the fan. It is a relatively small and light heatsink compared to other cooler with similar design.

In Figure 9 we can see the black plastic fan, which looks very basic. It comes screwed on two plastic holders that fit the heatsink. This fan has PWM automatic speed control and thus its connector is a four-pin type.
Figure 9: Fan.
In Figure 10 we see the fan holder. Note how there are small rubber cushions stuck to the fan in order to absorb the vibration produced by it. The product comes with another set of holders and rubber stickers, so you can easily install a second fan (not included).
Figure 10: Detail of the fan.
In Figure 11 we can see the base of the cooler, smooth but with no mirror-like finishing. The heatpipes make direct contact with the CPU. There are some recesses between the aluminum base and the heatpipes, so with this cooler we had to use more thermal compound than with flat-base coolers.
