The GHz Edition of the GTX 780 comes packaged in familiar GIGABYTE garb. Being part of the 450w OUT range of cooling, GIGABYTE are keen to push the Windforce design as being one of the best on the market and this is exemplified by the 450w OUT moniker, below which is the BOOST speed of the GPU; a whopping 1071MHz!


Flipping the box over, we find a breakdown of what makes the Windforce cooler so good with highly detailed 3D diagrams. The obligatory feature list is printed beneath in multiple languages along with the power requirements of the graphics card.


By removing the outer high gloss sleeve we are greeted with a Matt Black box, inside of which we see a neatly packed graphics card. Beneath this we find the accessories (above) which include an installation guide, driver disc and two 8pin - twin Molex power adaptors. While basic, GIGABYTE provide pretty much all you will need to get you started. Perhaps the only item missing is a VGA-DVI adaptor however it is unlikely that a user will use a VGA input with such a high end card so GIGABYTE have seen fit not to include any such adaptor which seemed fair to us. Qualifying NVIDIA cards are of course entitled to some nice free games courtesy of NVIDIA (currently Assassins Creed: Black Flag) although there was no information pertaining to this within the packaging.
