EVGA has made a name for themselves in the VGA business, and is slowly becoming a household name associated with NVIDIA based products, motherboards although a secondary market for them has become one of their mainstream targets as NVIDIA begins to make a complete takeover in the SLI motherboard business. This comes in the wake of the AMD-ATI merger that leaves NVIDIA wide open to a whole new range of business opportunities as their former partner gets left eating dust in the wake of these new events. Even Intel themselves have to smell the coffee brewing as this will put a squeeze on their ATI CrossFire only i975 chipset boards, as ATI's future is in serious question at the moment.
