Nice enough packaging, we suppose, but one area where NVIDIA leads ATI is in the provision of games in high-end bundles, usually teaming up with the partner and throwing in rebates and triple-A titles.

Warranty

All XFX cards are backed up by a two-year warranty that begins on the date of purchase and is transferable if the board is sold on. XFX urges its customers to register their products on its website for efficient validation of the warranty should things go awry. Each card is then provided a registration code that can be passed on to subsequent owners, keeping the warranty intact.
