Bundle

ECS decided t follow their Black series tradition by packaging their A785GM-M motherboard in a black box. The front of the box has a picture of a dragon that is surrounded by flames and a hero standing in front of him with a sword. The CPUs that the motherboard supports are listed as well as ATI Radeon HD 4200 graphics, Hybrid Graphics, Solid Capacitors and eJiffy. The rear of the box has detailed descriptions of the features of the board.

Driver CD

Opening the box we find that ECS has bundled all of the accessories on a cardboard tray covering the motherboard itself. The bundle consists of four SATA Data cables an IDE cable and the I/O Shield. The software side of the bundle includes the Driver CD-ROM, which contains the drivers, AMD utilities and the eJiffy CDROM. The utilities including AMD OverDrive and links to AMDGame and AMD Fusion are nice but some sort of backup software or anti-virus software would have been welcome.
