Long time exclusive Nvidia partner to begin making ATI cards!

There are reports that Gainward will soon be manufacturing ATI video cards from the HD 4000 series. Apparently this was bound to happen due to the fact that Palit owns Gainward (Palit make Nvidia and ATI cards). The oldest Nvidia card from Gainward that we have in the database is a GeForce4 MX440, so Gainward has been dealing in only Nvidia cards since at least 2002. I wonder if Gainward will extend its Goes Like Hell (GLH) and Golden Sample branding to their ATI cards.

This is interesting news. I just wish it was more applicable to me, considering Gainward cards are rare in the states :(

They will not be adding their branding. ATI doesn't allow that any more. They are doing a very good job of keeping the naming scheme simple. HD ABC0. A = series number, B = class of card, and C = 5, 7 based on performance/power ratio
