Looking from the top we can see the nice spacing of the fins and all 6 individual heatpipes.

Looking from the side, I wasn’t too sure if the cooler should sit like this, but this is how it came out of the box. After I tested it I tried to bend it level with no luck.

On top of the base there is an aluminum heatsink.

The base of the ISGC-400 is just like its sibling 300; it is not that good but easily fixed with some polishing.
