The company will continue to sell its remaining RTX 30-series cards, but will cease all GPU production moving forward.
On the flip side, the crypto-mining craze that has plagued the industry by buying up countless cards for mining rigs seems to be coming to an end. And while the company does make and sell other PC components such as motherboards, cases, and power supplies, the loss of the GPU side of its business is likely to pose challenges for its 280 worldwide staffers. Though EVGA, a company that is so often known and valued for great GPUs and reliable customer service, is leaving the GPU market, the company reportedly intends to stay in business. As you’ve probably noticed, GPUs are once again available to buy and pricing has finally started to fall back to Earth. The company laid off 20 percent of its Taiwan employees earlier this year, and now several people whose jobs solely revolved around GPU manufacturing and development don’t have an obvious job to perform. EVGA’s pledging to honor warranties for existing customers of those cards.
One of the most important makers of Nvidia-based graphics cards won't be making them anymore: EVGA has decided not to produce video cards with Nvidia's next ...
"We've had a great partnership with EVGA over the years and will continue to support them on our current generation of products," said an Nvidia representative. "Also, EVGA would like to say thank you to our great community for the many years of support and enthusiasm for EVGA graphics cards." Peddie and Gamers Nexus also say that EVGA was frustrated by Nvidia undercutting its cards with its own Founders Editions. Graphics cards are reportedly 80% of EVGA's current business, but that doesn't mean it plans to close up shop because of its split with Nvidia—it told Gamers Nexus that it doesn't even have layoffs planned. The news is even bigger than that, though: Speaking to [Gamers Nexus](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cV9QES-FUAM) (opens in new tab), EVGA CEO Andrew Han said that the California-based company isn't just skipping the next generation of Nvidia chips, but will "completely stop" making graphics cards going forward. EVGA's decision is the result of frustration over its treatment by Nvidia, according to both sources; it's "about respect," Gamers Nexus said.
EVGA's graphics cards have exclusively used Nvidia GPUs since its founding in 1999, and according to Gamers Nexus, GeForce sales represent 80 percent of EVGA's ...
EVGA will continue to sell its other products, including power supplies, though Han told Gamers Nexus that the company doesn't plan to return to the GPU market at all—not with AMD's or Intel's GPUs, and not with future GeForce product generations. The end of the EVGA-Nvidia relationship could also hurt Nvidia—Peddie says that EVGA represents about 40 percent of Nvidia's GPU market share in North America—but in the medium term the company is unlikely to be fazed much. [the Ethereum cryptocurrency's move away from GPU mining](https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/09/ethereum-completes-the-merge-which-ends-mining-and-cuts-energy-use-by-99-95/)have both flooded the market with secondhand GPUs, which has in turn affected demand for new GPUs. Nvidia may not be entirely at fault here—the wider dynamics of the GPU market are also tough to navigate. As Peddie also points out, even as GPU costs have gone up, profit margins for the board partners that manufacture Nvidia GPUs have gone down. EVGA's graphics cards have exclusively used Nvidia GPUs since its founding in 1999, and according to Gamers Nexus, GeForce sales represent 80 percent of EVGA's revenue, making this a momentous and arguably company-endangering change.
EVGA, often considered Nvidia's top add-in-board partner, is making a drastic shift. It's done doing business with Nvidia and will stop making GPUs ...
Peddie notes that as GPUs require more and more electricity, EVGA may be able to sell individuals and OEMs power supplies to make up for some of the profits. It's not a huge company, and while the GamersNexus video suggests Han said he wants to take care of employees, it's unclear what some of these engineers will have to do. "We’ve had a great partnership with EVGA over the years and will continue to support them on our current generation of products," Bryan Del Rizzo, director of global public relations for GeForce at Nvidia told Tom's Hardware. Also, EVGA would like to say thank you to our great community for the many years of support and enthusiasm for EVGA graphics cards." EVGA will reportedly continue the existing RTX 30-series product line until it runs out of stock. "EVGA has decided not to carry the next gen."
Consequently, NVIDIA is losing their largest add-in board (AIB) in North America, and the broader North American video card market is losing one of its biggest ...
The American GPU maker refers to disrespectful behavior from Nvidia's side as the reason for its decision to abandon the graphics card market entire just ...
Nvidia reportedly refused to reveal basic pre-launch information about its PC graphics card to partners like EVGA, making it diffcult for them to prepare.
EVGA will also not be partnering with AMD or Intel to continue making graphic cards, and is expected to exit the business entirely by the end of the year ...
This also means we will not see EVGA produce Nvidia’s upcoming RTX 40-series GPUs. Popular graphics card maker EVGA has revealed that it will no longer work with Nvidia to produce new graphics cards. However, as things stand, the current batch of EVGA GPUs are set to be the brand’s last.
EVGA has terminated its partnership with Nvidia and some reports cite “disrespectful treatment” as the reasoning.
EVGA says that it will continue to do business and there are no plans to terminate any employee contracts. The statement continues to clarify that EVGA will continue to support and sell “current generation products.” Once EVGA sells its stock of cards, according to Gamers Nexus there will be no more EVGA GPUs.
The next time you build a gaming PC, you probably won't be adding an EVGA GPU to your list of possible components. The company, which is best known for ...
