eVGA Geforce 6600 GT WTF Mate?

[df96817]

Just got a eVGA Geforce 6600 GT today. When I opened the box it shipped in, I was surprised at the packaging:

It's eVGA's 6600 vanilla box with stickers on it! Seems like they're doing this a lot with the Limited Edition and the Ultra Extreme versions.

But anyways, it's not the packaging that's important, it's performance that counts. So far so good. Doom 3 Demo runs well with no artifacting and load temp so far as been around 56-57 C.

Also 3DMark03 score not bad:

Atleast you can run 3dMark03, my Aopen 6600GT crashed/failed on test 3.

Yes, clean your keyboard.
Also, would u want to pay more for a better box?

That's actually a big step up from what eVGA packaging used to be. They were plain boxes with a label sheet glued on the front.

Do yourself a favor and buy a box of swiffers, take out out and dust off that keyboard!

Cool, does it come with that composite+Svid+component breakout box? I'd rather them ship it in a brown box with that breakout box, than a fancy box with nothing.

Edit: Yeah, rubbing alcohol + cotton/tissue will do that keyboard good.
