XFX NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 (OpenBox)

Arrived on Tuesday, for SiongHwa’s new PC.

Originally wanted to buy XFX NVIDIA GeForce 9800GTX+, but the seller recommends this because both has same performance. Checked the specs of both cards, and found that they’re basically the same, while GTS 250 is newer. GTS 250 is the replacement for the GeForce 9800GTX+.
