Packaging
ECS's product packaging for high-end products has been a bit over the top for a while now, and the GANK MACHINE is no exception. Pictures don't fully capture how shiny and reflective the box really is. There is a flap on the front—flip it open and you will be greeted by a shiny list of features on the left and a picture detailing the board's most crucial parts on the right.
Inside the primary box is another box inside of which are two different boxes—one contains the board and the other its included accessories. I would almost rather not see so much packaging, to be honest, but it does increase the board's high-end feel as you unpack everything.
