Chaintech Apogee A-FX71

Introduction:

We have recently received quite a few e-mails asking us to take a look at a card that the average gamer could afford. Last week we took a look at the retail ATI 9600 PRO from one of our favorite online resellers and took it for a test drive with some pretty good results! Since then, we have gotten quite a few e-mails asking us what we thought of the 5600 Ultra so today we are looking at the Chaintech Apogee A-FX71, which is based on the nVidia 5600 Ultra VPU.

The Bundle:

Accessories

• S-Video Cable (150cm)
• Composite Cable
• VIVO Cable (4 port)
• DVI-I to VGA Adapter
• Anti-Static Brush
• Q Ball (Monitor Cleaner)
• 4-pin Molex power cable w/ a splitter

Bundled software

• 3Deep
• WinDVD 6 Channel
• WinDVD Creator
• WinRip
• WinProducer 3.0
• MDK2
• Game pack (5 in 1)

Compared to some of the more recent video card bundles I have seen, the Chaintech A-FX71 comes with a very nice bundle with some items that are useful to the gamer or enthusiast.
