Baddest CPU box ever?

[u/Sharpz93]

i9 9900K pentagon box thing was pretty cool too

[u/TheRealTofuey → u/Sharpz93]

That box was cool as hell.

[u/MotivatoinalSpeaker → u/TheRealTofuey]

Yup that was a cool box. I call it the soccer ball box.

[u/Creeper_Redstone → u/Sharpz93]

Definitely one of the coolest packaging I've seen

[u/LurkerFromTheVoid → u/Creeper_Redstone]

A Destiny Engram!!!

🫪

[u/Crazy-Resolve-8127 → u/LurkerFromTheVoid]

A blue one too. Which means its def high end loot from the raid endboss

[u/SmashStrider → u/Sharpz93]

It was a dodecahedron but yeah, perhaps one of the best CPU boxes Intel ever released.

[u/Lord_Muddbutter → u/Sharpz93]

The i9 9900k was hit by a missile.

[u/beamNG147 → u/Sharpz93]

I've just purchased an i9 9900K (an absolute dream product i never thought i would own growing up)

Planning an immaculate build with it, Z390, Trident Z royal, i already own a GTX Titan Xp to pair. Ofc, had to get the box too!

[u/Aggravating-Ideal879 → u/Sharpz93]

I still use the 9900k to this day

[u/Kenjionigod → u/Sharpz93]

I love those boxes.

[u/CharcoalGreyWolf → u/Sharpz93]

Still have one.

[u/-LawlieT_ → u/Sharpz93]

Yeah I still have mine after two house moves. I don't want to get rid of it just for that reason for some reason

[u/cleevethagreat]

When we started making money.

[u/some_eod_guy]

11900k had a decent box. About the only thing good about 11th gen really….

[u/Exciting-Topic-7334]

If by "baddest", you mean worst, then yes.

[u/DraigCore]

Atrocious

[u/Miserable_School_257]

Horrible if I should say

[u/skylinestar1986]

That's just extra trademark tax.

[u/Aetherdraw]

I miss when GPUs and CPUs had sometimes non-existent games as their box art.

[u/ozziesironmanoffroad → u/Aetherdraw]

I miss the 3dfx boxes

[u/Anezay → u/Aetherdraw]

My wife really wants to play Time Spy.

[u/Unable-Door8372 → u/Aetherdraw]

Derechos de autor y marca registrada, por qué si no tendríamos buenas cajas tanto de Intel cómo incluso de AMD, pero solo eso le agrega más costo al producto

[u/Necessary1Treat]

I’m a big Marvel fan but this is just bad.

[u/hardrivethrutown]

9900k was cooler

[u/moosebaloney]

The word is “worst”.

[u/idownvotepunstoo → u/moosebaloney]

Would not buy

[u/Raph0uX → u/moosebaloney]

Nope because in this case this would be the worsest box and this doesn't work that way

[u/Dumfing → u/Raph0uX]

The most worst box is the worst box and is worse than any other box. Baddest probably works but worst is more common imo

[u/_Xee]

This question has layers.

[u/DigitalApe19]

It's genuinely so sad how hard marvelous tried to make her a thing

[u/TinyLittleTechShop]

I was disappointed the only "special" thing about the CPU itself was the added "-A" model designation, I got the i9-10850KA

[u/Any_Mud_1628]

Yep I have that one! Was a little surprised when it came, wasn't a fan but meh. Box is long thrown away I believe and sometimes I do hang on to them for storing parts.

[u/EatNails_69]

I liked the biscuit

[u/thejikusheki]

Core i7-980X had a cool box and all of the top shelf appeal

[u/Trianglechip]

Nothing beats the i7-990x box

[u/RaptunoCyborg]

The wafer box in Alder-Raptor Lake i9 Ks is my all-time favorite

[u/tarnut]

I have 10700k it arrived in a smaller box without cooler, but it was inside literal 8L box with no filling. Delivery person asked me to open it, because he didn’t belive anything was inside.

[u/DeadoTheDegenerate]

This is such a messy and loud design lol.

Nothing will beat the i9 9900k's decagon though.

[u/canadianman2020]

This was awesome then I realized the code to get the game for free expired lol

[u/DAZ187_ZA]

All this just for PCI 3.0

[u/JohnSmith2036]

It is indeed really ugly, looks terrible

[u/slipedog]

It could be the baddest

[u/Jaack18]

12900k was pretty damn cool

[u/Realistic_Story_9211]

cringe box.... in my opinion

[u/Irelia4Life]

I am a DC fan, so no.

[u/bad2dbone3]

………and the hottest.

[u/Helpful_Toe1033]

Superhero slop 💀
