PRODUCT COMPOSITION

Protecting the case during shipping are the typical pair of Styrofoam blocks and another piece covering the front panel. Inside the case is an accessory box with hard drive mounting rails, motherboard standoffs and screws, wire clamps, dust cloth, instruction manual, and what Gigabyte calls a ‘magnetic ring'. I wasn't sure what this ring was used for so I looked in the manual and it is listed in the included parts, but no other details are given.
