MSI NBox FX5900U-VTD256 Ultra Videocard Review

Back in the days when 3Dfx was king and nVIDIA still a pre-pubescent teenager, manufacturers differentiated themselves by clocking videocards higher then what was advised, and some even included large software bundles to tip the scale. In this wonderful period videocards were rarely based entirely on the reference design, then came what I like to call the "dark ages"... In the 'dark ages', manufacturers did nothing exciting with their products and followed the reference design down to a tee. Not only that, but most products arrived on store shelves with the software bundles cut out. Games if they were included, were old, out of date, or titles that never carried much weight anyway.
