The Siluro MX400 utilizes nVIDIA's reference drivers as the shipping drivers. You can look at this from two perspectives; it keeps costs down, ensures stability and makes for rapid updates, since you can download the latest reference drivers direct from nVIDIA; however, it generally lessens the amount of variety that the end-user gets. Fortunately, ABIT has added some custom graphics here and there to spice things up a little. Unfortunately, the drivers supplied (version 6.62) are somewhat dated. This is easily fixed by downloading the latest nVIDIA reference drivers.
Also bundled are E-Color's 3Deep software as well as ABIT's own overclocking utility, Graphic MAX. 3Deep basically corrects lighting, shading and color in 2D and 3D applications, a calibration utility if you will. While it is certainly no hassle to use a 3rd party overclocking utility, it was thoughtful of ABIT to include Graphic MAX for the end-user's convenience.
