The bundle is average for a high-end card. We're glad to see at least one decent game in the bundle, DiRT, and MSI provides the necessary gubbins to hook the card up to external sources.
Available for £202, including the dreaded VAT, it's one of the cheapest GeForce 8800 GTS 512s around - a fact that's made all the more appealing by its pre-overclocked speeds and decent-enough bundle.
Warranty
MSI's cards ship with a two-year warranty which begins on the date of sale of the card from MSI to the distributor; it should begin on the date of the customer's purchase instead. The warranty is transferable between users and is handled by the reseller the card is purchased from.
MSI will deal with customers who are unable or unwilling to return the item to the place of purchase.
For direct returns MSI states a replacement time for faulty items of 7-28 days, with an average of 14 days and replacement items of the same or higher specification.
