I took the specifications right from Leadtek’s website so I could point something out to you. You will notice they talk about the overclock BIOS in the GPU/Memory section. They came out with a BIOS that gives you these default overclocked speeds and are backed by their warranty. Both the cards we are using are at this BIOS level. This is good because sometimes you cannot get overclocking in SLI to work too well since both cards have to sync up, and the driver has to make sure they can run at the same speed. Also, NVIDIA changed some ways they design things with the 7800 GTX: some parts of the GPU may be running up to 525MHz when running 3D apps and others at lower speeds. So, overclocking has become much more interesting with this series of cards.

The bundle is similar with that of other Leadtek cards and includes both a DVD authoring tool and a DVD player as well as two relatively new games, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory and Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.
