Nvidia threatens cutting off MSI in TweakTown tiff

"Hardware enthusiast site TweakTown has revealed that Nvidia threatened MSI with cutting its GPU allocation if it continued to provide samples to the publication.

TweakTown's editor, Cameron Wilmot, speaks in detail of the tumultuous relationship Nvidia made sure it had with the website. TweakTown would have to fight tooth and nail to get access to review samples - despite the company's PR working very amicably with other media - and later simply stopped inviting the staff to events..."

Not cool imo.

Not really. Their drivers used to be atrocious.

Not really.

But yeah Nvidia can be quite nasty at times. That Jen Hsen-Huang fellow is quite a dictator. Brilliant leader though.

This is skewing the truth though. TT broke an NDA agreement when they had an early product shipped to them and the editors defended the move, even though it was the wrong one to make. Now people are just spinning the story around and they're getting all the press and hits in the meantime.
