Sapphire bundles their HD 6870 video card inside a black box. The front of the box has the Sapphire version of Ruby on it with a big gun on her back. The upper left hand corner of the box has the Sapphire logo with the center of the box having 3D Stereoscopic and the name of the card Radeon HD 6870 below it. A list of the main features of the card is on the bottom of the card box front.

The back of the box has the main features of the card including the Stereoscopic features, the Tessellation features, and more. Opening the box we find that Sapphire has included a wide variety of accessories including a DVI to VGA adapter, an extension cable for the HDMI 1.4a connector allowing the computer to be further away from the TV or monitor. A CrossfireX bridge two mini-DP to DP converters and a mini-DP to DisplayPort adapter rounds out the bundle.
