The packaging keeps the product secure and includes the graphics card and a driver disc. Below is a shot of the graphics card with the box and another of the backplate.
The GeForce GT 240 occupies a single slot and supports output to DVI, VGA, and HDMI. Along with the fact that the graphics card does not require external power, we may have a winner for HTPCs on our hands. EVGA's Precision Software is also included.
