Bundle and Presentation

Card Box


And GeCube do so with a presentation set and bundle that's bound to excite at least some gamers out there. While the X800 PRO is a bit overkill for a speedy, good looking game of CS:CZ, it's a new game that many a gamer is interested in, so the bundle deal and box art seems inspired for the time being. Of course, you get the GeCube in non-limited edition form, if you already have the game.

Card Box


You get a quick spec sheet in a number of languages on the back, along with some hints to what else is in the bundle.

Bundle


S-Video cable, composite video cable, S-Video-to-composite convertor, DVI-to-VGA convertor and a Y power splitter are the hardware accessories in the box. Just what's needed to get the card up and running in your system.

CDs


You get a full copy of PowerDVD 5.0, Yager (a decent game), a driver CD (carrying CATALYST 4.5) and of course Counter Strike: Condition Zero.

Manual


The manual is an easy read, explaining everything you need to set the card up without fuss or badly translated language. A high point.
