IT'S OVER NVIDIA IS FINISHED
http://www.bitsandchips.it/52-english-news/7886-rumor-evga-could-jump-on-amd-bandwagon-with-vega
in the long run, nvidia wants to be the one selling all the cards too. the founder's editions shit is just the start. evga probably noticed after having some meetings with them and realized the only way to remain in the business is by switching over to amd.
i wonder if it's possible for us to be in a market where nvidia sells their cards while amd doesn't. their profit margins will probably increase even further

so in the long run nVidia wants to end up just like VooDoo?
>housefire brand to go with housefire gpus
this will surely go well
evga is shit anyway who cares

Never seen grapes go sour this quickly

Projecting

is this a joke?
>(This is a old rumor, I know, but now it's more realistic).
>Like enthusiast users recall, XFX abandoned NVIDIA in 2010 not because AMD had better solutions, but because NVIDIA treated XFX like a 2nd tier company, despite during these days XFX used to produce some of the best NVIDIA cards.
more like nvidia told xfx to fuck off.

lowest tier clickbait.
There was no 3xx series tho
Evga sure does make a ugly shroud. How do they do it? Their current cards look like a fucking metal brick?
>>58362181
are you retarded?
>>58362174
They told XFX to fuck off after they started producing AMD cards is more like it.

Don't worry about the shills - currently they are scrambling from both Intel and Nvidia after what AMD has shown off.
>>58362064
Funny thing is that nvidia bought 3dfx who got completely fucked by trying to pull that one off. So I guess in a sense they forgot about it happening to them before.
Not that AMD doesn't want to do the same thing, probably. They could increase their profit margins immensely by removing the middle-man.
>>58363210
AMD's starting to lean that way too, they're rebranding FirePros to Radeon Pro and iirc the cards will only be first party
>>58363258
I got bad news for nvidia and AMD if they do start selling first party cards. I sure as hell ain't buying their trashy designs.
I'll take my msi, thank you very much. msi might be trash, but they are my kind of trash.
wen u a neckbeard communist and u tryina talk about western economics: the thread
>>58363258
For professional cards that makes sense, the volume is far smaller than consumer cards and the people buying them do know what they're buying so you don't have to train faggots behind the counter to explain why GPU x is better than GPU y to some grandma.

one way to kill a cancer thread
>>58362064
>card makers helping with R&D for AMD
...that would be something
>>58362869
asus, gigabyte, msi create both amd and nvidia gpus.
evga sued xfx and won. nvidia told xfx to fuck off.
xfx royally fucked themselves after the 8600gt stunt. couple years later bitcoin mining kicked off, xfx dropped lifetime warranties (along with every other amd gpu manufacturer), they missed out on nvidia gpu marketshare boom.
xfx was always low quality and there's no way evga is ever producing aib amd gpus.

ATi used to exclusively make their own cards and Nvidia was the only one that had 3rd party manufacturers.
The only reason companies like EVGA even branched out to graphics cards was because Nvidia let them.
Founders Edition cards are just reference cards, they have always been around and nothing has really changed.
Cool.
I'll give all the fucks in the world the moment Vega turns out not to be trash. Not a single one before that.

> EVGA VEGA
Like poettry.
