BFGTech stops selling video cards

Posted in BFG by Shane McGlaun on May 19th, 2010


For years, one of the top companies in the video card market for gamers and enthusiasts to shop with has been BFG. The company makes all sorts of unique and high-end video cards that are overclocked from the factory.

BFG has announced that it will no longer sell video cards. The reason according to the company is that the segment is no longer profitable. BFG will not bring new video cards to market.

bfg 8800 geforce gts video cardSo you want a DirectX 10 Video card but you don’t want to sell a kidney? The BFG GeForce 8800 GTS might be for you. Not that this video card is cheap. The retail price is around $500 dollars. Its only cheap when you compare it to a card like the ASUS EN8800 GTX.

So what does five hundred bucks get you? A pretty good video card, that’s what.

While the GTX model mentioned above has 768 MB of memory (wow) this card only has 640 MB. It has a narrower memory path than the GTX. That means that fewer bites can transfer from the memory to the processor at one time.

The GTS does support SLI. But spending a cool grand on two 8800 GTS’s might seem like overkill …
