Foxconn Renaissance X58 Digital Life Motherboard

Packaging

The Foxconn Renaissance is packaged in a bold and highly visible cardboard box with a predominantly black and orange theme. On the front of the box is an image of multimedia devices spinning around the Digital Life logo. On the rear of the box, Foxconn has included a rundown of the prominant features of the motherboard.

Foxconn appears to be taking a leaf out of ASUS’ book when it comes to packaging. On the top of the box is a secondary lid that when opened reveals an image of the motherboard itself and additional information about the Foxconn Renaissance’s features.

Opening up the box we can see the usual double-walled cardboard box that houses both the motherboard and the included bundle. This method of packaging hardware is proven, and subsequently, should provide maximum protection for the motherboard contained within.

Opening up the secondary box we can see the Foxconn Renaissance motherboard securely situated on top in an anti-static bag. Underneath the motherboard is a secondary box that houses the motherboard bundle.

Opening up the bundle box we were greeted by a mass of SATA and Molex-to-SATA power cables. You would be excused for thinking that Foxconn had a special on them at the moment.
