Packaging

Since power supplies are usually very heavy it's often quite hard to package them glamorously without using loads of corrugated cardboard. We all know that you don't judge a book by the cover but it certainly grabs your attention in the first place if it looks good. The FSP group have designed the Silent-Solution Kit to be packaged in a neat little cardboard carry case. It's actually very strong, which of course it needs to be since it holds a PSU, heatsink and fan, along with a case fan.



Opening the carry case reveals masses of cardboard protecting the hardware. Attention to detail is immense with this kit, right down to the packaging. Circles have been cut in the packaging to show off the sensational fan blades.
