MSI's NX6800 Ultra is the first retail board we have seen based on nVidia's new NV40 core. The basic PCB is as nVidia's reference design, including the dual DVI/I and single TV-out ports on the expansion plate, but MSI has added its own style of heatsink and cooler.

MSI supplies an impressive bundle of games and utilities with the card. These include MSI's own useful utilities; Media Deluxe Centre, which allows you to browse all your multimedia files under a single application; 5.1 DVD player, Super Pack with Photoshop Album SE and 3D Album SE; and 3D Desktop.

There's also a CD containing Virtual Drive 7 Professional and Restore It 3. The driver CD includes yet more useful goodies, including Live Update, which supports live BIOS updates; drivers for the graphics card; and WMIinfor, a DMI system information.

The games supplied are full copies of URU, XIII and Prince of Persia 3D, and if these aren't enough there is also a 14-in- games collection.
