Foxconn supply the H55MX-S in a standard style motherboard box which is sized to reflect the Micro-ATX form factor of the board inside.  The box is covered in a black livery which isn’t quite as eye-catching as some we’ve seen in the past but is attractive looking nonetheless.

Like most other motherboard manufacturers, Foxconn have decorated the top of the box with a number of logos and badges which advertise the main features of the motherboard packaging within.  On the reverse side of the box there is some further information about the board.

Inside the box we find all the bundled items under a cardboard piece in the base of the box supports the motherboard on top.  The bundle itself is reasonably plentiful, consisting of a quick-start guide, an in-depth manual, a driver CD, two 4-pin molex to SATA power connectors and two SATA cables.  As we would expect there is also a back panel I/O shield included.
