Foxconn and Leadtek finalize the deal on an NVIDIA partnership
Foxconn officials have confirmed the company's entrance into the graphics market today during Computex Taipei. As part of its announcement, Leadtek will simultaneously withdraw from the VGA market. Foxconn is the primary original equipment manufacturer for Leadtek video cards, and the withdraw of Leadtek's presence is to reduce the cross-over between the two companies. For now Foxconn will only announce NVIDIA graphics cards for the launch.
Foxconn is also expected to announce an entrance into the ATI graphics market. Foxconn insiders do not have a definite date or time one when this will happen, though one product manager described the move to support ATI graphics as "inevitable."
Several weeks ago, we spotted some of Foxconn's GeForce 7900GX2 QUAD SLI graphics cards (http://dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=1281). At the CeBIT computer show in Germany, Foxconn representatives unofficially announced (http://dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=1244) that the company would enter the graphics card business.
