Package and Accessories

The design of the package hasn’t changed much since the WinFast A400 Ultra – we have the same mixture of red, yellow and brown tones here, and yet another fantasy character is looking at you from the front side of the box.

The package is rather small (if compared with packages from MSI or ASUS). You can easily thrust it into your bag, so there’s no carry handle. Besides the graphics card, the package includes:

• Installation Guide
• User’s manual
• Power adapter (two Molex connectors to 6-pin connector)
• Two DVI-I to D-Sub adapters
• S-Video to RCA adapter
• S-Video cable
• RCA cable
• CD with drivers and Leadtek’s own software
• DVD with Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
• DVD with Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow

Not gorgeous, but acceptable, the accessories include everything necessary for you to use the WinFast PX6800 GT, plus two quite good games. The multilingual guide comprehensively describes the installation procedure. The user’s manual is also informative, but is in English only.

The cables for connecting the card to a TV-set are average quality: the S-Video cable is screened sufficiently well, but the RCA one is too thin and is hardly protected against interference. But well, the composite connection lacks quality anyway, unlike S-Video. As for connecting to HDTV devices via an YPbPr connector, they are supported optionally. That is, there is no such adapter among the accessories.

The disc with the drivers also contains the following software:

• WinFast DVD
• WinFast PVR (for recording video)
• DVD muvee autoProducer (for editing video and authoring DVDs)
• WinFox II (hardware monitoring suite)
• Coloreal’s color correction software

We already described the WinFox suite in our Leadtek WinFast A350 TDH review (for details see our article called Dependence of Contemporary High-End Graphics Accelerators Performance on FSAA Mode: VisionTek Xtasy 9800 PRO and Leadtek WinFast A350 TDH Graphics Cards Review ). The video recording and editing utilities are not quite appropriate here – the WinFast PX6800GT TDH lacks the VIVO functionality.
