Gigabyte Cyclops
Box ‘n bundle
The Cyclops comes packaged in a clear plastic blister pack with a white and orange patterned cardboard centre. The main cooler and RAM sinks are all visible so you get a good idea of the product’s styling from the get go. There’s also some small diagrams detailing some of the cooler’s features.

The compatibility list is found on the left hand side. It’s not the most extensive one, apparently only fitting mid range 6 and 7 series cards when it comes to nVidia and a couple of xX00 and x1X00 cards.
