Even in Asia they dont that well known, in India their general availability is a big question mark. I can find Gigabyte, Asus, Asrock and MSI products at every B&M store at the end of every street(even in small towns).

They are huge in China. Not sure that qualifies as unknown.

It's an almost 30 years old brand. It's anything, but unknown.
