BFG GeForce GTX 260 896MB Video Card Review

Packaging & Accessories

The packaging for this BFG card is no different than any other we have seen with the usual stylized character on the front with additional information on the back. Unlike some cards we have encountered in the past, this box also contains specification information which is great for those of you buying it from a brick and mortar retailer.


The card is protected with BFG’s usual packaging method of first wrapping the card in bubble-wrap and then enclosing the whole affair with a cardboard façade. There is some additional Styrofoam thrown in for good measure which makes this an extremely durable way to protect the cards from any damage.


There are also the usual pieces of documentation included plus a driver CD (no, it doesn’t have a label for some reason) and a couple of BFG case badges. Other than the blazing yellow warranty information card there is also a pamphlet that has information about connecting the proper power connectors to your new card.


The accessory bundle is definitely nothing to write home about since to be honest, there really isn’t much included. All that you get is a DVI to VGA dongle, a Molex to 6-pin adaptor and a TV-out cable. That’s it folks; no DVI to HDMI connector and no SPDIF cable even though this card is equipped to handle both HDMI and high-def audio.
