Packaging
Like the majority of ASRock Fatal1ty packaging, the Fatal1ty X79 Champion comes in a red and black box with a picture of Fatal1ty himself staring back at you. Nothing much more than the board's name and a few technology logos are found on the front, while the back gets to the point with fairly in-depth listings of the features the ASRock Fatal1ty X79 Champion is equipped with.
I also found a flap on the front of the box with a short story telling us a bit about the face on the front of the box and a few Fatal1ty-specific highlights the board supports. There's also a clear window into the box’s innards found under the flap, letting you see what you are getting while still at the store.
Inside the box I found two other boxes, as shown above. The board itself is secured in the box using some high-density foam that's wrapped around the outer edge of the board's packaging tray.
The goodies the ASRock Fatal1ty X79 Champion comes with are contained in their own box, which is comprised of two sections separated by a cardboard divider. On one side I found all the paper-based goods as well as the driver CD and rear I/O back-plate, while the other side was stuffed full of assorted cabling and other goodies that help you get the most you can out of your board.
