Has my Zalman 9700 been used? (Pics inside)

I just recieved my cooler brand new from an e-tailer.

It looks new, but has it been used before?

Did it arrive in the blister pack? It's quite difficult to put it back in the packaging and making it look new.

does it matter? lol. if it works i dont see a problem. Besides, those marks are probably just from testing the heatsink

Bought a couple of Zalman HS myself, thats nothing unusual tbh.

Dark shadow,

Any chance of posting you thoughts on it please. (couple of pics as well
would be magic)

Stuck between this and the tuniq - I find the Zalman nicer to look at and
the LED Fan would work well within my case.

but all the reveiws seen to rate the Tuniq as the better cooler.

cheers

I'm gonna have to put off this mini review for a while.

Firstly my dad's in Intensive Care, I haven't got much time/brain to do so. Secondly the temps have been stupidly weird. I'm going to have to resit the heatsink. Lets just say It's 20 degrees cooler than my previous temps though

Chris, looky: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17682004&highlight=dell

I got both coolers delivered today, didnt get much time to play.
