The packaging for this 8800 is very surreal, bringing to mind images of my long haired father sitting in a smoky circle with tie dyed friends singing about peace and love.

Moving to the back of the box we have some multilingual specifications and feature lists along with a comparison picture between integrated and a dedicated 8800 GPU.

Inside the box we have lots of little goodies to excite you. Along with the usual DVI to VGA converters, a few fun cables - including two molex 4 pin to 6 pin PCIE converters, the driver CD and manual, and a couple of other pretty cool additions.The first of these is some pretty nice video editing software; not a gamers first choice but I am sure many would have a use for it. The other little extra that comes with the 8800 is a nifty looking game pad. This is rather different from the bundled OEM games that usually come with high end cards so it will be interesting to see if its fun to use.
