EVGA has gone the extra mile in terms of the hardware bundle on the 680i LT SLI motherboard. Every SATA connector has a cable+power connector for use, meaning that the purchaser does not need to buy additional cables or power connectors. The rounded ATA133 and Floppy cables are a nice touch, meaning that cable management in the system is easy and unobtrusive. The entire package comes encased in a sturdy plastic housing that makes shipping and storage easier.

The additional brackets on the board bring new meaning to the term complete bundle. 4 USB ports are added to the 4 onboard bringing the total included with the board to 8. A Firewire bracket brings the total Firewire ports on the board to 2. To run SLI mode, you need two like NVIDIA video cards and an SLI bridge which is included in the bundle. One thing that sets EVGA apart from other motherboard manufacturers is the Limited Lifetime Warranty offered to purchasers of this board that register it online. No other manufacturer offers a Lifetime Warranty on motherboards, making this an attractive value feature to potential purchasers of this board.
