NVIDIA Told That Their AGP Bridge Chip Is No Longer Being Produced
IBM, which makes AGP bridge chips for NVIDIA, informed NVIDIA Corporation that they will no longer going to produce the bridge chip needed for NVIDIA to have any AGP cards. This leaves Nvidia rushing to find another foundry partner for the bridge chip while their supply continues to decrease. No word on how long the current inventory will last, but I'm sure they will have some stock on hand.
"IBM is no longer going to produce the bridge chip needed for Nvidia to have an AGP part," said Chris Caso, an analyst with Friedman, Billings, Ramsey Group Inc. (Arlington, Vir.), in a report. "Our checks indicate that IBM has notified Nvidia it would no longer be able to produce the 'bridge chip' that provides the AGP interface on Nvidia's low-end graphics cards."
