However, ABIT is likely to perform some changes in its tactic by utilizing graphics silicon from ATI Technologies and XGI. Chaintech used to supply SiS Xabre-based products in 2002. Xabre subsidiary of Silicon Integrated Systems this year was spun off into XGI. There are rumors about intentions of ASUS and Gigabyte Technology to adopt graphics processors from the Taiwan-based startup. XGI expects its graphics chip shipments to grow more than 20 times in 2004 and reach No officials commented on the story. Related news
