The story
The company was founded in 1986, manufacturing XT form factor mainboards and in later years add-on cards. In 1999 Biostar was listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange and met the ISO 9001 standard.
On 1 August 2004, having collaborated on Nvidia nForce based motherboards, Biostar became a partner with Nvidia of graphics solutions.
Biostar was awarded "Top 20 Taiwan Global Brand" in 2008 conducted by Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) with an estimate brand value of US$46 million.
Biostar allows end-users to modify voltages and frequencies of the video card's GPU and memory to boost performance to extreme limits (overclocking). Those cards are called "V-Ranger" or "V-Series".
Their mainboards, notably the "T-Power" and "T-Series", have been widely reviewed to be highly overclockable achieving world record FSB overclocks.
