SPARKLE Computer
Sparkle Computer Co., Ltd. (stylised as SPARKLE), is a Taiwanese electronics firm established in 1982, based in Taipei. The company specialized in manufacturing video cards using Nvidia graphics processing units, along with peripherals (fans and heatsinks) for graphics controllers. Sparkle was one of the few manufacturers of modern discrete video cards that used the PCI bus, producing PCI versions of GeForce 8 Series and GeForce 9 Series based discrete graphics controllers, and more recently, GeForce 200 series and GeForce 600 series-based GPUs using the aforementioned interface. In April 2023, Sparkle re-entered the graphics card market, this time producing a set of Intel Arc series graphics cards. Products
