Packaging and Contents

The MSI MEG Z690 Unify box gives off a more serious vibe than the rest of the MSI Z690 lineup. Below the misty motherboard picture is the product name, but not much more on the front.

The back of the box is brimming with information and does an excellent job of highlighting features this motherboard offers. Below the depiction of the motherboard is a list of specifications, which is always welcome. Overall, this is a prime example of how to show potential buyers what is being offered with clearly laid out sections of the more detailed specifications for those needing further confirmation.


The included accessories consist of everything necessary, with the manual, SATA and ARGB extension cables, and Wi-Fi antenna, to name a few. It is good to see more companies including a USB drive for the system drivers as building a computer with a DVD/CD drive has become increasingly rare.

The full list of accessories includes:

• User manual
• Quick installation guide
• USB drive (drivers and software)
• SATA 6 Gb/s cables
• LED JRGB Y cable
• LED JCORSAIR cable
• LED JRAINBOW cable
• Wi-Fi antenna
• Case badge
