Hiper Osiris Mid-Tower Case Review | ||
| by Michael "SKYMTL" Hoenig | July 20, 2008 | ||
| Packaging & Accessories Packaging & AccessoriesThe Hiper Osiris is packaged in a remarkably compact box which is a huge departure from some of the behemoths we have seen in the past like the infamous Thermaltake Sword M. There are quite a few great shots of the case itself, a full listing of the specifications and even a fairly accurate representation of the god Osiris himself lounging back on a chair. The predominantly black color scheme does quite well in conveying the over look and feel of the product which is packed securely within the box’s protective confines. Inside of the box we have the Osiris which has its top and bottom protected by a pair of foam inserts and is additionally wrapped in a thick plastic bag. It is a bit disappointing to see that the sides of the case are not protected by foam as well since we have received quite a few packages in the past which have some pretty nice holes punched in their side. However, the protection afforded this case can be considered adequate for long distance shipping. Much like we saw with the Anubis, all of the accessories are packaged in what looks to be a slim pencil case. This is actually quite convenient since when not being used for accessories it can dub as a temporary holder for your tools. Inside of the case you get a good number of high quality accessories and various screws and standoffs which are all in individually-marked bags. This makes finding the right screw blissfully simple and we have to tip our hats to Hiper for thinking of this most basic convenience that makes our lives that much easier. Other than the screws and standoffs, you get an Osiris keychain, amazingly horrible velcro tie-wraps, expansion slot covers and a pair of 3-pin to Molex adaptors for the fans. The keychain is quite a large affair with a profile of Osiris on one side and your individual serial number on the other. Since this is supposedly a “limited” run of cases, each Osiris case has a number associated with it but since this can go up to 999,999 we wouldn’t call this limited at all. Basically, don’t expect this case to become a collector’s item or anything. The fold-out instruction manual holds a step-by-step instruction process for installing your components into the Osiris. Unlike many other such manuals floating around out there, this one is in clearly-written English with perfect diagrams. As already mentioned, there is also a trio of perforated expansion slot covers included. These are needed since the existing expansion slot covers on the Osiris can be removed but not put back into place so these ones can easily be subbed in. The also provide a bit of additional airflow which is usually sorely needed in cramped mid-tower cases. | ||
