The Package

ASUS stayed with the typical cardboard box for this motherboard. The model number and key features of the motherboard are printed clearly in the front, with more details and a very informative keyed picture of the motherboard printed on the back.

In case you aren't sure what's really in the box (a Gremlin could be waiting inside!), the small white label on the side of the box provides all the necessary information, as well as bar codes to ensure you get what you paid for.

Top : RoHS compliance means lead-free solders!

Opening the box, we find the motherboard wrapped up in a sheet of corrugated cardboard with the accessories, CD and manual placed on top of it. Of course, the motherboard is itself protected by a plastic bag.
