BFG secretly made A card

BFG Tech recently announced its withdrawal from the graphics card market, refusing to return the product to repairs caused a stir in the industry, but no one knows what happened to this seemingly normal business, although it did not provide any actual products after the release of NVIDIA Fermi , it's just a symbolic list on the website.

PC Perspective today revealed that BFG did not intend to completely bid farewell to the graphics business, but instead prepared to switch to AMD's to seek a resurgence, but did not think AMD did not feel sympathetic, and the result was only a hitch , as the biggest customer Best Buy. Also eventually gave up BFG.

It is alleged that a reader from China also published several photos showing Radeon HD 5750 secretly made by BFG for a Chinese factory (hereinafter referred to as X) . Warranty, free 24/7 technical support, etc. BFG's usual strategies are also clearly visible.

According to this reader, BFG had contacted company X long ago and reached an OEM agreement. The latter purchased a large number of components to create the graphics card, packaged and shipped in the name of BFG, and prepared several models. Radeon HD 5750 exposure is just one of them.

It also looks like a typical red and green camp defection incident, but the strange thing is that BFG does not seem to say hello to AMD in advance. A large number of AMD graphics chips are inexplicably purchased, which naturally aroused the concern of AMD. It is known to be BFG's After doing so, AMD responded that BFG is not an official authorized partner and is not qualified to sell A cards. X company panicked because the amount of previous purchases was already quite large.

Company X subsequently contacted BFG several times to find out why it had not been approved by AMD, but it had not received any response. It was only a few weeks later that BFG's integrated graphics sales and product management department had already gone to the building. X Company Completely messed up, because at this time they have produced three different types of graphics cards in accordance with the BFG order, are in the process of packaging, who knows when the other party played hide and seek.

In order to find a way out, Company X plans to participate in the China Sourcing Fair in October this year to show off the cards and prove its graphics production and packaging capabilities. Of course, it is best to find buyers.

One partner in the fierce competition with NVIDIA should be a good thing, but no one knows why AMD would not accept BFG. Maybe it is worried that it will suffer the same kind of "betrayal" in the future. In any case, BFG finally struggled. Still disappeared.
