Will continue to offer PSUs and gaming systems


BFG Technologies is calling it quits and pulling out of the graphics market. The US-based company was founded in 2002 and it made a name for itself flogging premium Nvidia cards.

However, BFG will still continue to offer power supplies, Deimos gaming notebooks and Phobos gaming rigs. Owners of BFG cards should not be concerned. The company will continue offering support and RMA services for all BFG cards still in circulation.

On the upside, BFG Technologies Chariman John Slevin announced that the company is working on a few new products. We wish them luck.

They were an excellent choice; sad to see them leave :|.

They were ok

Only thing different between graphics cards lately has been the sticker and warranty terms.

High-end cards usually don't get custom coolers, and when they do they're usually the type that dumps heat into the case = fail... so who cares I guess. Their warranties and stickers were OK, but nothing which can't be replaced by the others who put stickers and provide warranties for the same parts.

It's a sad sad day...

I used to swear by a now defunct company called Hercules, then switched to nothing but BFG. Wonder how much of this has to do with nVidia's lackluster offerings of late?

Hercules lawlz... didn't they make a 16-color display back in the early 90's or something!? Or maybe it was black & white ... hmmm ...
