Recently SilverStone blew us away by showing what the possibilities are from a design perspective with an AiO. We were so impressed that their TD02-E made our best of 2015 AiO list. While the cooler was aesthetically appealing it did leave something to be desired in the performance equation. Today we take a look at another cooler from SilverStone, this one wholly different altogether. Designed with tighter spaces in mind, follow along as we check out the TD02-Slim and find out if SilverStone was able to pump some extra performance into a much thinner form factor.
Special thanks to SilverStone for providing the TD02-Slim for review!

Packaging
The TD02-Slim arrives in typical AiO packaging, a flip top cardboard box and a molded cardboard container within. The exterior of the box is printed with blues and blacks and the front of the box features a photo of the cooler. You’ll also find an abbreviated feature list in the lower left corner. Going straight to the back of the box the same feature list is found in 10 additional languages.
Both sides have photos of the cooler while the left side shows a side view that has dimensions overlaid. The top has the full listing of Specifications for the cooler and the bottom contains a few feature photos.
Flipping back the top we find a printed manual laying on top of a thin sheet of foam. Removing both reveals the cooler and all components in individual bags and boxes. Everything seems to be in perfect condition after shipping, the cardboard and boxes seem to have done their job well.
