The Package

The front of the box looks very cool with its Neverwinter Nights 2 theme. Across the top of the card we can see the brand and some NVIDIA logos to the right. Smack bang in the middle of the box we have a giant NWN2 logo.



Moving around the box, the bottom gives us the model and some more details on the card. The right of the box lets us know that it’s a TurboForce Edition, comes with NWN2 and uses the Ultra Durable 2 technology.



Going to the back of the box we have mention of the Zalman fan across the top along with some more details on the card. The main focus on the back though is the Ultra Durable 2 highlight. This gives you an idea of what exactly you gain from these features. It’s nice to see GIGABYTE explain this as so often you see someone release a product with new fangled features but not actually explain the advantage.



Moving inside the package the cable department is pretty light. We have the little TV-Out box that we see with most GIGABYTE cards along with a DVI to VGA connector and Molex to PCI Express connector.



Paperwork wise there isn’t a whole lot more; manual, quick install guide and game manual along with a driver CD and a copy of Neverwinter Nights 2. The package isn’t all that exciting but GIGABYTE tends to let the features of the card do the talking more so than the bundle.
