Presentation and Bundle

The box art sees our alien buddy make a reappearance. At least he doesn't have a massive clown chest. The box detailing lets you know pretty much exactly what's in there, including a quick list of the bundled software, the fact the hardware is VIVO-able and of course the fact it's a Radeon X1800 GTO. PCI Express (incase I haven't mentioned that already) and fueled by SAPPHIRE, the box art doesn't especially displease.

The manual is well written and doesn't miss much, so if you've never integrated a modern PCI Express graphics board before, read the manual and you'll be entirely clued up on the process. Some Cyberlink software to use the VIVO functions, driver CD (if it's a duplicate of the CD supplied with the review sample, burn it), Sapphire Select games trial CD with unlock codes and the usual cable bundle (two DVI-to-VGA convertors, VIVO cable, PCI Express power connector).
