EVGA Goes Red, Teases The First Ever Motherboard Made for AMD Ryzen Processors
EVGA Corporation, or simply EVGA as it is known in the community, is the maker of various PC components and peripherals. As many of you are aware, EVGA has historically been focused on making products based on silicon coming from NVIDIA and Intel. The company has used NVIDIA products exclusively for its GPU portfolio and used Intel chipsets for its motherboard solutions. In the past, EVGA made motherboards for AMD processors, however, these boards used NVIDIA's chipset so they weren't technically full AMD motherboards. Starting today, that is about to change as we got some very juicy teasers from EVGA. In the nine-second video teaser on YouTube titled "A new Darkness is coming...", EVGA showcased a simple animation showing the AMD Ryzen logo surrounding EVGA's.
And of course, that only means one thing. EVGA will officially be joining the ecosystem of AMD and offering motherboards for their Ryzen processors. While the company is "one of the top NVIDIA authorized partners" in GPUs, on the CPU front it is officially joining Team Red and marking an important milestone for everyone. It is still not clear what kind of motherboard we will be getting, however, we can expect to see EVGA's best engineering applied in the form of a possible X570 Dark motherboard.

Btw i did own nForce chipset board back in the day: s939, ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe.
www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=121-RL-E597-KR <--- $430 and have yet to hear of anyone purchasing one of these boards. EVGA has been doing this for well over a decade now. The impact EVGA has on the motherboard market is right around zero.
Also, they weren't real AMD motherboards? They used the NVIDIA chipset in the past and now it is back to full AMD so I'd say first-ever. ;)
Which is bizarre, as their HQ is just down the road here, near Gigabyte, HTC, VIA and ASMedia.
Then we had abit that wasn't nearly as good and I guess that's why they went tits up.
They were the first motherboard maker to remove PS/2 ports on their boards, except it was way too early, as it made installing Windows a pain.
I have so many fond memories of Abit, my BP6 with dual Celeron 300's at 450MHz where the second CPU most likely was never used...
Their press lunches at the Kensington Rooftop Gardens in London.
Ah the memories of a long gone era...
What bashing
You haven't updated your system spec's for years looks like so what exactly do you own from evga
You seem to love their mother boards do you have one ?
I love their gpu's and have two atm and have had others in the past just sold them best thing is transferable warranty
It's inexcusible but perhaps they can start to make amends by bringing flagship-quality boards to people without the obscene $750 pricetag. EVGA's Dark boards were arguably the best of the Intel flagship boards and they typically sold around $400-450 which is a good 40% less than Asus are asking, with MSI and Gigabyte happy to match Asus' ridiculous pricing.
Intel customers are more fast and loose with funds than amd evga might find out soon lol
They do not have to "move to AMD", they could simply just extend their market thats all
i would be more surprised if they could ditch Nvidia to become a AMD partner
