hmmmm
i think either way this is a win for evga and europe imo...
evga in europe SUCKED big time...
its better to have no evga in europe for a while than continuing with a sucky evga that rather hurts the brand image locally and can even affect their global brand.

and about the hw engineer leaving and possibly bios and product manager as well... i dont think itll be a big hit for evga... the SR2 will keep them on the top for quite a while, they probably have their 1155 stuff already finished, so they are basically set for the next 6 months, and within that time all they need is to start working on refreshes of existing boards, and start new boards only at the end of 2011...

i think the major thing you need when engineering a board is getting the specs right, and the specs and features are set by shamino... as long as the new engineers follow his lead and are able to do what he requests and specs, which i dont think should be a big problem, then i doubt most people would even have noticed the engineering team changed if these news wouldnt have come out...
