News Mellanox Technologies Absorbed and Rebranded As NVIDIA Networking

Well, this sucks. This means that the inexpensive SPF+ 10Gbps network cards that Mellanox was known for selling are likely going to either disappear or go up in price so that they are just as expensive as everybody else. They might as well just buy Microtik as well and eliminate the budget market in this area.

They only offer budget graphics cards because they basically have to in order to not surrender any more market share than necessary to AMD.
