At the end, it has become a general trend for everyone to talk about the hard times that NVIDIA is in graphics and chipset market. Rumors have passed so far as to claim that Santa Clara-based chip maker is on track to phase chipset business, thus ending the future high-end SLI-enabled businesses. Fortunately, this is speculation later infirmed by Brian Burke of NVIDIA. But there are still enough happening around the rumors and all fairness, they certainly did not shed much light on favourable company.

Before some time, some of the big NVIDIA board partners, including EVGA and XFX are reported as considering leaving the green company. In the rumors could not determine clearly in favour of another company, which will be held dispatch provided had to talk about one in the first place, but do not include speculation AMD and Intel. As an update of that history, recent reports say that reached EVGA AMD in search of partnerships, as the former also wanted to become Radeon-based graphics card manufacturer.

Claims things are not moving further than that because AMD decline the offer iztakvayki that it has sufficient board partners. There are currently no information on XFX, the other NVIDIA board partner who has to believe that by changing parties. Also, no word on whether EVGA also tried to cooperate with Intel for its upcoming Larrabee, so this is a problem which is still surrounded by uncertainty and speculation. One thing we do know for certain, however, is that a long time partner EVGA NVIDIA is still releasing GeForce and nForce-based products, most of which are quite successful.

As mentioned above, these rumors about NVIDIA are still awaiting confirmation of that, until then, no one can say with certainty whether they are based on cold hard facts or just speculation. If they do not prove true for the future of NVIDIA does not appear that there is light. However, things have a chance to take a turn for the better after the first 55nm-based graphics cards, GT200, are exempt.
