Bundle and warranty

Motherboard bundles don't tend to be generous at the best of times, and though EVGA's isn't a box full of surprises, it has everything the user will need to get started and a few added pieces.

The manual is accompanied by a large and easy-to-read visual guide, and there's an ample number of data cables available. Boosting connectivity are three optional fly-brackets allowing for four additional USB ports, a 1394 port and a serial port. Covering two-card and three-card SLI setups are a pair of bundled bridges; a flexible two-port option, and a solid three-port option.
