PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS & FEATURES


For this review I am going to skip the usual product hype found on the manufacturers website and just give you the specifications. This is not because I don't feel like typing it or because I don't agree with it, but because it is a grammatical mess and really does nothing for the products. The site is obviously a direct translation and a poorly done translation at that. This is one aspect that Antazone as a company needs to address. No one is encouraged seeing bad grammar and incorrect word usage on a products website. As if that's not bad enough its also on the product packaging. We are here to review the product though and not the way it is described so without further ado, here are the specs:
AS-N1000
Dimensions - 55 x 56.8 x 80.8
Weight - 107.5g
Material - Pure Copper
Compatibility - All motherboards
AS-N2000
Dimensions - 46 x 46 x 63.3
Weight - 104.5g
Material - Pure Copper
Compatibility - All motherboards
PRODUCT COMPOSITION


The boxes are almost a carbon copy of the packaging seen on the AS-C1000 reviewed earlier. As I stated before, the information on the packaging is poorly translated and gives one the impression that attention to detail is not something to expect from these products. Whilst this may not be the case, simply getting someone to write up the information in good English will surely help the image of the products.

Plastic clamshells protect the coolers themselves. Once removed from the packaging you are greeted with shiny copper tower coolers that really do look good. You can just make out the blue plastic protective sheets stuck to the bottoms of the coolers; naturally these should be removed. The circled gap is not a mistake or poor fit; they do in fact serve a purpose but more on that later.
