Like all Sapphire products, the packaging is pretty straight forward. Inside the outer cover, which lists all of the key features and necessary info, is a plain box holding the graphics card and accessories.
Included with the card itself is your standard assortment of accessories including the driver CD, installation guide, power adaptors, and a 6 foot HDMI cable, which was a nice little bonus.
