Their graphic cards used to be exclusively based on Nvidia chipsets; however, the company also announced ATI-based graphics solutions after the successful launch of ATI 4800-series hardware,[2] although Gainward does not currently produce any cards from the ATI Radeon range.[3]
Gainward have had success with their Phantom series of graphic cards, featuring removable fans.[4]
