    Another powerful beast from NVIDIA. Will it offer better VFM compared to the GTX 280? Read on to find out more.

    Good performance with AA, Effective cooler, Supports PhysX and CUDA.

    Expensive, Power hungry.

The Box



The box has the trademark orange color with a graphics drawing in the middle. Since it's the 'Amp' Edition, the creature is a dragon with his wings spread, supposed to symbolize the power of the card. The back of the box has a small intro about the GT2xx series, which can also be found on NVIDIA's website.

The card comes packed in a brown box lined with a thick foam mould which holds the card firmly in place. This is important, as it ensures the card does not get damaged while shipping.

The Bundle



The bundle consists of the following:

  • Quick Install Guide

  • 2x 6-pin PCI-E to Molex power adapters

  • Component and S-Video out dongle

  • SPDIF cable

  • 1x DVI to VGA adapter

  • 1x DVI to HDMI adapter

  • Driver CD

  • GRID full game DVD

  • "Zotac" Case Badge


    • Apart from the usual accessories, I was really happy to see that Zotac had bundled the full version of 'GRID' as the free game. This game really complements the card well and has a lot of eye candy, so the GTX 260 can really show off its prowess.
