Default All ATI margins for VGA are in the toilet

It turns out that the margins that ATI's partners are making from these cards are ''around 5 percent'' in the mid range segment and that for a while ''All ATI margins for VGA are in the toilet''. It is getting very difficult to survive on such money and five percent of the total price is an average mid range margin. In the high end they earn a bit more, but most of ATI DirectX 10 sales these days are 2400 and 2600 cards.

As long as your partners are not making good margin, that is the point in business.
