Abit Might Exit The Motherboard Market
Second-tier motherboard maker Abit is reportedly considering exiting the motherboard market after evaluating its shipment performance of Intel 4 series motherboards, according to channel sources. Abit, however, maintains it does not know anything about the speculation and will continue to develop motherboard products. Abit was the first manufacturer to support Legit Reviews, so we wish them the best and that the upcoming Intel chipset series does well for them.
Abit has failed to meet the expectations of parent company Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) in its ability to compete with fellow second-teir makers in terms of performance, or first-tier makers in terms of pricing in the mid-range and entry-level market, and so the company is evaluating whether to quit the market and start developing other products for the Abit brand, noted the sources. In 2007, Abit shipped 2-3 million motherboards and had set a goal to ship six million units in 2008. However, the company's current shipments have actually decreased.
