The NZXT Cryo LX arrived at my door, via FedEX, in an unassuming brown box. Upon opening the brown box, I was greeted by plenty of styro-foam peanuts and buried within that, the nicely designed retail box containing the NZXT Cryo LX. The retail package, as I said is nicely designed using cool blues, whites and subtle black accents. On the back it shows the Cryo LX features and on the front It boldly boasts in large lettering Cryo LX “World’s largest full aluminum notebook cooler”.
Opening the retail box revealed that the Cryo LX was wrapped in a thick red plastic to protect it from scratches and that each end was encased in styro-foam to keep it stationary and protect it from damage.
Underneath the Cryo LX I found the instruction manual, a USB to USB cable and not 1 but 2 USB to DC power cables. Looks like I got an extra one. ;)
