Part Four: The Retail Pack
Abit doesn't have a great reputation in this area, their mainboards are supplied with the essentials only, but as we saw with the Ti200 model, their graphics card packages are somewhat healthier.
Abit Siluro Geforce 4 Ti 4400 Retail Pack: -
1 x Siluro 3D graphics accelerator
1 x User Manual
1 x Software CDROM inc. Siluro DVD, Drivers etc
1 x S-Video - Composite Adapter
1 x S-Video Extender Cable
1 x RCA Cable
1 x DV-I to VGA Adapter

It's certainly a value filled bundle, Abit have packaged everything you could ever need with the card. If we are being picky one could suggest a full version game would have been good but so many manufactures are opting not to do this now so the extra effort in other area's is more than welcome. Abit have included their new Siluro DVD player, a rebranded WinDVD, one of the top software players. Abit's sense of style and presentation is even more evident within this package, everything feels like it belongs from the modified drivers to Siluro labels attached to the cables. This type of style doesn't come from ANY other company. Talking of style, Abit's packaging has undergone a radical chance for the GF4 series Siluro's.

It's certainly... different! This image is most reminiscent of the Bayou Tapestry and is certainly a departure from the regular images employed on these boxes. Thankfully no skulls or beasts are present and while it's a little strange at first, this style of art only adds to Abit's branding quality.

The back is presented neatly and displays all the things you would expect along with a nice little diagrammatic connectivity image.

**The next page is graphically intensive, please allow a little extra time for the images to load.**
