The HIS HD4850 IceQ 4 TurboX came in a rather bland package compared to what other manufacturers are using. HIS has opted to print a large IceQ 4 on the center of the box and throw in a few pictures of the accessories included. The "4" in IceQ reminds me of the Fantastic 4 logo... perhaps this card will be fantastic. What's missing from the front of the box is a picture of the card, but that gets covered on the back with a large picture and embedded images of various features HIS has decided to highlight.



On the short side of the box we get a picture of the card and the direction of air flow. The blue arrow indicates the cold air coming in and the red arrow shows the direction of the hot exhaust air. On the other side we get a quick list of the contents inside the box. On the other side of the box, we have a list of features in different languages, awards HIS has won and stickers with different serial numbers.



Before we crack open the box, we'll take a look at the features and specifications.
