Though the 9800GT's box was pretty badass, except for the fact that the card up and died after a year of use. At least it came with a free copy of Modern Warfare (1), unlike the above picture.
Still better than the time FakeFactory was hired to make GPU logos.

I got that box sitting right next to me. Sexy motherfucker, that :h:
Me too, painfully waiting for just a few more parts before I can build my new PC :frown:
It's a box, big fucking deal
My box looks fucking epic if you ask me.

That's what I have. I wish they just started showing better stuff, but then again, it's a box.
Also, bought a new XFX 5450 today for my Mom. XFX makes good boxes.

Why does she have goggles.
I actually thought you meant the actual packaging, as in the plastic and stuff that holds it in place.
Boy, was I wrong.
Anyways, it's just a picture on the front of the box, what else are they going to advertise a card with, circuit boards and glasses-wielding nerds?
He's badass

Yeah the official Nvidia box is easily the most attractive on the shelf.
Too bad its sale is really limited though.
I might be wrong, but last time I heard it was a Best-Buy exclusive
Hell yeah Company of Heroes on my cards, still got the packaging hiding away somewhere too.

I think that frog was from one of Nvidia's DX10 tech demos that came out around the 8 series time. And they go put it on a 3 generations older card... :irony:
