The card comes in basically the same box that the previous XFX 5600 Ultra came in. The back of the box has some specifications as well as a window that lets you check out the card. The major difference between this box and the older one is that this new one has the OCmodshop Seal of Approval on it which was really cool for me to see. It is very small but so are the other logos that are on there with mine.
The card has the same blue colored PCB that the 5600 ultra used that I liked before. This card has a much larger active heatsink that the previous 5600 Ultra had most likely because it gets hotter and needs more power to cool it. The back of the card also has a much larger passive heatsink to cool the RAM compared to the 5600 Ultra.
From the side of the card you can see that it has dual DVI, and S-Video connection which can be used for VIVO. There is also a Molex connection on the card so that it will have ample power while it is pumping out those intensive graphics.
The card comes with two S-Video cables, a VIVO cable, and two DVI to VGA adapter so you can use two CRTs two LCDs or one of each. There is also a users manual, quick install guide, driver CD, and warranty card for your reference. This 5700 ultra comes with an impressive game bundle which the 5600 Ultra lacked. The games included are: MotoGP, Comanche4, Ghost Recon, Racing Simulation 3, and a games collection CD that has demos of: Ballistics, Delta-Force Black Hawk Down, IL-2 Sturmovik, Serious Sam: The Second Encounter, and Vietcong.
Installation was a breeze the card fit into the system without a problem and after plugging in the Molex my system booted up fine.
