Thermaltake’s Overseer RX-I – a big case for big cooling
The Packing Box and the Presentation of the Overseer RX-I
The Thermaltake Overseer RX-I comes well-packed in a tough cardboard box that also advertises its features in retail stores. Although it looked like the delivery company might have rented the box out for target practice, its contents were well preserved.
Above is the front panel of this tough outside box that pictures the Thermaltake Overseer RX-I.
Below is the back which advertises the its features.
The side panel advertises more features in several languages. This case will be used all over the world.
The Overseer RX-I comes packaged with thick foam and a plastic covering to protect it. It is a minimal but effective use of packing and there is less to recycle. We give our ‘thumbs up’ for the packing.
Of course, Thermaltake includes all the parts necessary to assemble a PC system into the Overseer RX-I case.
The instructions are clear, however, perhaps they might also consider creating a universal demonstration DVD.
