The Zotac 8600GTS video card comes in a very sturdy retail box. Something different with these cards is that the packaging is smaller than your typical retail video card packaging along with that it stands vertically rather than horizontally.
With the box open, you can see that there is a lot of empty space and that the video card actually sits in the box lid. This, in my opinion, is dangerous as there is no padding between the video card and the angry UPS man. Included with the Zotac 8600GTS video card is a drivers disc, a VGA to DVI-D adapter, a HDMI to DVI-D adapter, a dual 4-pin Molex to single 6-pin GPU power adapter, and a video breakout cable including component video and s-video.
The Zotac 8600GTS PCI-E video card is a single-slot card featuring a cooler that is not going to take up half your motherboard’s valuable PCI slots .This is idea for small for factor PCs and other systems requiring multiple PCI expansion cards.
