Did you get it through best buy?
That is one of the best boxes I’ve ever seen. Layers of corrugated cardboard, and the finish on it is incredible.
They can throw mine in a paper bag if it’s going to cut a couple hundred dollars off the price tag hahaha
Yeah it so frustrating that we can not universality use recycled packaging this is how packages should be plastic/cardboard can be reused many times.
It looks great even though they used recycle materials to make the box i too like the design of the packaging.
The box may be cool I’m not arguing at all. But don’t be fooled Nvidia did this souly to save tons. These are simple cardboard with print, used to get nice foam “displays” in box. They aren’t “going green” this isn’t some cool new design, it’s penny pinching by a company who is not been consumer friendly as of late. Nothing wrong with liking the packaging, but dont be fooled
Sad the stuff inside isn’t working as intended right now
It was (almost) the same package for the 4000 series. But, yes, I agree, one of the best box I’ve ever seen.
They should be giving you silk lining and real gold accents for the price of this bullcrap but best they can do are bad drivers.
Considering how they are priced, you would damn well hope so 😅
I wanna bite it
Good, they should be left in the box.
Wow.. the number of comments telling me that this is a horrible purchase is honestly shocking. Can’t a man just simply enjoy something he buys?
Holy it look clean af
I don’t get the packaging with Astral
For the price it should come with a drink and dinner
That’s probably the best thing about the 50 series lol.
Well you paid extra for the packaging upgrade on the 50s hehe
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark!
I regret getting the Msi shadow and not waiting for a FE
Man, the 50 series Founders cards are so beautiful.
the white cardboard is surprisingly dense and high quality
With those prices of course they have to
Ok, now lets take a look at its drivers
All show no go.
They can’t give us both at the same time as we are probably not giving all our money to em
That first pic makes it look like a console. Wasn’t til I got to the third one that I was sure it *was* a video card.
Cool box. Does it blackscreen like the GPU?
Maybe I’m just old fashioned, but no anti-static bag nor sleeve for the pins makes me queasy.
If I switched from my 7900xtx I’d definitely get a founders edition, they look neat
For the amount they charge they better package it well.
The value has to be somewhere if not the card then the packaging 😂
They’re becoming the Apple of the GPU market. $XXX extra, just for the Nvidia & RTX logo.
You haven’t seen 4000 series then
If it costs as much as a kidney…
ah so thats where the ressources went in.
Might as well be secured like the organ you had to sell to afford it
