Packaging
The Noctua NH-D9L arrived in the typical packaging I have come accustom to seeing from Noctua. The Front of the package states the cooler model and type. The front also lists a few of the features of the cooler. One side of the package lists a few of the specifications and scope of delivery while the other side goes into greater detail of the features.

Inside the NH-D9L awaits tightly packed in several layers of cardboard protection, right after opening the package the first box you encounter is the accessory box. The accessory box is loaded with everything you would need. Under the accessory box you will notice the box containing the cooler. The cooler is actually further inside what you see, take the surrounding box apart and then inside of that is the NH-D9L wrapped in a thin cardboard wrap, this setup provides several layers of protection. Finally, open that last box and we find the NH-D9L with the cooling fan installed to the cooler.
Now let us take a closer look at the cooler itself!
