PNY is an old brand, been around since the early 2000s making Nvidia cards. Major supplier of what would have been called reference designs in retail stores. I want to say my Geforce 6600 was a PNY, and I think I had an FX series card from them as well. Might have been Gigabyte though.
I think more recently it is Foxconn and Flextronics that makes the FE cards, but I think PNY may have done the 10 series. Always been a tough topic to search, always getting references to TSMC when I want assembly information.
For this generation it looks like PNY and Zotac took it upon themselves to do DisplayPort 2.1b at 80GB/s, the rest stopped short at DP 2.1a.
But ASUS is the only one that bothered with current sensing on the 12VHPWR connector.
