Zotac H55ITX-C-E Motherboard

Looking at the front of the box, we see that this is an H55 ITX based board offering WiFi. Flipping around to the rear, Zotac has a picture of the motherboard marked up showing what and where everything is. To the right of the picture they list out the main features. Starting out at the top left we have the Manual, Quick Install Guide, Warranty pamphlet, Driver disc, and the motherboard itself. Bottom left is the I/O plate, WiFi antenna bracket, DVI to VGA adapter, 4-Pin ATX 12V extension cable, two antennas, and three SATA cables. Here we have the LGA1156 socket positioned close to the DIMM slots as well as the PCI-e x16 slot. With the socket being so close to the surrounding components, this is going to limit what CPU coolers you can run. For example, if you do plan on utilizing the PCI-e x16 slot, you will have to make sure the cooler you plan to use isn't going to come in contact with the video card you plan to use. To the side of the CPU socket we have the VRM area adorned with a small heatsink that is fitted around Nippon Chemi-Con solid polymer caps. Looking at the rear of the board to the left of the CPU area we can see why the heatsinks in that location.
