Packaging and Contents
The front of the ASUS TUF Z390-Pro Gaming box features a gray digital cameo background with a large stylized armor plate across the middle. "ASUS TUF Z390-Pro Gaming Motherboard" has been printed over the plate, with "ASUS" in the top-left and an Aura Sync logo in the top-right corners. The TUF Gaming logo is in the bottom-right corner, while the bottom left has a whole host of certification badges.
The back of the box has the same digital cameo pattern and a top-down shot of the board, with an angled shot to show the rear I/O next to it. A full specification list features down the left side, while the right side covers four standout features: ASUS OptiMem II, TUF Gaming Audio, TUF Gaming Alliance, and AURA Sync.
The box design is well thought out, and the printing is excellent.
Opening the lid reveals the ASUS TUF Z390-Pro Gaming in an anti-static bag and secured in a cardboard insert. The packing is simple, safe, and efficient. Lifting the board and insert out reveals the accessories underneath.
For accessories, the ASUS TUF Z390-Pro Gaming has a mostly standard allotment. Notably, the rear I/O shield is very nicely printed to theme, and the sticker card includes stickers designed for the CMOS battery. Notable are also the TUF certification card and a coupon for Cable Mod cables.
