I was thinking today and I have never heard of a GPU manufacturer other than nvidia and amd, but PC building is an extremely large industry so I was thinking that couldn't be the case. This is where you guys come in, do you know a gpu builder other than amd and nvidia.

Yours Sincerely,

AMD and nVIDIA are the only one that has the resources to fund their research ( AMD isn't holding to well this year , next could be better , we'll never know ) 

... Life is a game and the checkpoints are your birthday , you will face challenges where you may not get rewarded afterwords but those are the challenges that help you improve yourself . Always live for tomorrow because you may never know when your game will be over ... I'm totally not going insane in anyway , shape or form ... I just have broken English and an open mind ...

How about Matrox? While they don't do 3D accelerator cards (anymore), they have some good solutions for multi-display setups.

And don't forget 3Dfx, too bad they went out of bussiness. There were some other manufacturers as well, but none exist anymore. 

 

Spoiler

CPU:Intel Xeon X5660 @ 4.2 GHz RAM:6x2 GB 1600MHz DDR3 MB:Asus P6T Deluxe GPU:Asus GTX 660 TI OC Cooler:Akasa Nero 3


SSD:OCZ Vertex 3 120 GB HDD:2x640 GB WD Black Fans:2xCorsair AF 120 PSU:Seasonic 450 W 80+ Case:Thermaltake Xaser VI MX OS:Windows 10
Speakers:Altec Lansing MX5021 Keyboard:Razer Blackwidow 2013 Mouse:Logitech MX Master Monitor:Dell U2412M Headphones: Logitech G430

Big thanks to Damikiller37 for making me an awesome Intel 4004 out of trixels!

True, but Nvidia acquired them, and used their technologies e.g SLI to the present day
