Shit nobody is making any money waiting on Nvidia. I say go ahead. And why not anyway? I think they should be diverse it's the only way to stay in business these days. I think they should stay in the Nvidia business as well but only when new parts come out. 

And I don't think Nvidia has anything to be worried about. If you build it they will come and I've heard that phrase alot and it's true.

Should nVidia be worried? I think that if this extremely reputable company started to make ATI cards, nvidia should be worried.  Lately I think ATI has really be winning the gpu wars. They hit a spectatuclar mark on all points of price, performance, power usuage, etc. Just for kicks, my GPU history was a Radion 9000, 6800GT, 8600GT, and now 4870x2. I'm 50/50. I love the performance of my ATI cards but I think I prefer nvidia drivers (layout, ease of use, etc).

If BFG offered a BFG branded ATi card with the usual BFG service and lifetime warrenty that would make me consider ATi again for the first time in years. BFG is one company I trust to back up their products and that is because of my experiences with them.

This entire round of the GPU wars has been great. I will fully state that I am not an ATI fanboy. Of my last 6 video cards, I have had the following FX5200, 2x6800 XT's, X1900 GT, 8600 GT, 8800 GT, ATI 5770 (4 to 2 in favor of nVidia counting the 2 6800 XT's in SLI as a single card purchase).I'm really hoping that this latest round smacks nVidia around enough to wake them up and make them realize that if they are going to charge a n exorbidantly premium price, they have to justify it with a FAR superior product. Not these nickle and dime performance improvements (compared to ATI or their previous products) they've done for the past 4 years (Sorry nVidia fans, but Physx simply isn't worth an extra $100 - 200 depending on the card). I will gladly buy an nVidia card again, but not until they earn my business back.

This would be absolutely fantastic. The reason I still have my BFG GTX260 is that the customer service I received from them has been nothing  short of amazing, unlike my two experiences over the years with ATi companies. If they do go red, I'd finally go ATi 5 series.

 

On a side note, I have to give Nvidia props for their lower-performance parts recently. Ion, Ion2, Optimus, Tegra, Tegra2 etc are all really great parts.

Now if EVGA were to make both, that'd be really interesting.
