After 8 years of pro­duc­ing graph­ics cards BFG  announced today that it will be exit­ing the graph­ics card mar­ket.   The com­pany stated that it will con­tinue sell­ing it’s line of power sup­plies, note­books and gam­ing computers.

“After eight years of pro­vid­ing inno­v­a­tive, high-quality graph­ics cards to the mar­ket, we regret to say that this cat­e­gory is no longer prof­itable for us, although we will con­tinue to eval­u­ate it going for­ward”, said John Slevin, chair­man of BFG Tech­nolo­gies. “We will con­tinue to pro­vide our award-winning power sup­plies and gam­ing sys­tems, and are work­ing on a few new prod­ucts as well. I’d like to stress that we will con­tinue to pro­vide RMA sup­port for our cur­rent graph­ics card war­ranty hold­ers, as well as for all of our other prod­ucts such as power sup­plies, PCs and notebooks.”

UPDATE: BFG has said that they will con­tinue to honor the war­ranties of all of it’s exisit­ing graph­ics card cus­tomers.  So if you are cur­rent owner of a BFG graph­ics card you can rest easy know­ing you are still under warranty.

What a shame Sad
I just bought a BFG GS250 not to long ago for a great price too...
Think fryes had alot to do with the price and aside from a bit of a noisey fan the card rocks...think I just need a new power supply to quiet it down a bit.
I always liked Nvidia so Im guessin thats what were going to have to buy now?
straight Nvidia cards?

Killsh0t,

PNY is still making cards for about the same price at BFG.  All of my cards are BFG but PNY is starting to look better.
