XFX drops Nvidia exclusivity, becomes an AMD partner
According to reports, XFX expects to offer ATI HD 4000 series products in early 2009. The company will nonetheless continue to sell its GeForce-based products, but obviously Nvidia won't be thrilled by the recent turn of events, which leaves EVGA as the only strong Nvidia exclusive add-in board partner.

Well times are financially tough - companies are looking to make more money to survive. I can't imagine XFX will do too much better with this move though, their cards are always more expensive than the rest, and most people are choosing the new Radeon's due to their low cost performance. XFX will likely be the most expensive Radeon's on the market just like their NVIDIA counterparts, which doesn't make them an appealing choice. |

Good, it always seemed to me that nvidia had better partners with better warranties. I may pick up an XFX 4870 if they come out next year. I like their warranty and overclocking friendly attitude. |

XFX don't overclock too well in most cards. In my experience anyway. |
