So how do you spot the difference by the box?

I live in the Netherlands now, and online shops are the best scammers around here. Lots of the online and local retailers around here don't post or announce the part number to scam the unknowingly ;)
 
Well, the box is gonna have that part number you've posted above, so that's how. Besides, the non-NF200 doesn't have the ECP which should not be listed on the box ;)

I doubt Europe is getting non-NF200s though, not just yet ;)
 
There is a non-NF200 version that includes the ECP now. Original Classified is the 759, the non-NF200 is the 760, and the non-NF200 with ECP is 761.

There should be a sticker on the box showing the part number and serial number. At least my US X58 SLI had one (the part you have to send in for the rebate). This would help if you're in a store handling the box, but I don't think there's a good way to tell just from a picture on a website. I think EVGA themselves used the same pic for the 759 and 760: http://www.evga.com/PRODUCTS/IMAGES/GALLERY/141-BL-E759-A1_MD_1.jpg vs. http://www.evga.com/PRODUCTS/IMAGES/GALLERY/141-BL-E760-A1_MD_1.jpg

Also, I just noticed that the 761 link is now dead. Hmmm.

I don't have any local stores that carry the board, unless Fry's or Microcenter carry it. I'll likely be ordering from Newegg after I return my Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5.
 
I was told by Enermax that EVGA will be releasing new revisions of their boards within 2 months (specifically because the Classified's had issues with their Revolution85+ power supplys... ) and probably fix any other issues...

Just a FYI for anyone...
