Here's one I didn't see coming: Chaintech is set to drop their motherboard line and move into the memory module arena. Chaintech confirmed that the company is gearing up to launch memory module products and will gradually phase out its motherboard business. However, the launch date of the new product line has not been revised. Despite its plan to exit the motherboard market, Chaintech will carry on its graphics card business, which accounts for about 60% of its revenues at present, the paper indicated You can get the fully story over at DigiTimes.
Interesting, their margins must not have been appealing enough in that market. They seem to be doing well in the video card market, but I didn't expect to see them jump into memory. Well, I would imagine this'll mean that they'll initially price their memory very competitively to break into the market and establish a name for themselves. -AT
