EDIT: huh they make power supplies? well they must not be that popular in the UK
Is that true, about Jonnyguru being product manager at BFG Psu division?
Get out your BSD
All these guys jumping ship after seeing what ATI is doing.
Seriously, what was the point in discontinuing the 200 series?
They should have continued the production of these cards and lowered the prices.
Being in the market at a loss is better than not being in the market at all (for a huge company like nVidia).
oh well...more room & profit for the remaining competitors I guess...the market is still saturated with so many big names in graphics. HiS, PoV, Palit, Sapphire, XFX, Powercolour, Gigabyte - list goes on....
I have had nothing but negative experiences from BFG PSU/RMA dept. I owned a 550w psu and utilized the trade-up program to upgrade (which i thought was a great program on paper) and then after 4 weeks of waiting had to call 4 times and email several times to get the new PSU. After receiving the new PSU it failed in about a month. Had to RMA that PSU and after several weeks i had to call/email numerous times to inquire about delays. Still no PSU and it wasn't until i found a BFG rep on a forum that they sent my PSU out. BFG support/RMA process has been a nightmare in my experience.
