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.[1]
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.[2]
In April 2023, Sparkle re-entered the graphics card market, this time producing a set of Intel Arc series graphics cards.[3][4]
