The CM Sniper comes packed in a nice black and blue box that is clearly inspired by military weapons. What is I found interesting to see was that the box was almost completely CM Storm, in fact not until reading the trademark info on the lower end corners did I find Cooler Master mentioned. It seems Cooler Master indeed wants to make the presence of CM Storm recognized properly and pushed to the front of the gaming chassis’ industry.
Once opened, we find that the Sniper is well packaged with styro-foam cushioning supports in both the top and bottom of the box.
Of course the CM Sniper was also enclosed in a thick clear plastic bag to keep it from receiving scratches and to minimize dust buildup.
