That isn't the reason they stopped, they were tired of NVidia's BS. Nvidia has been slowly trying to phase out 3rd party cards for a while. Since the 20 series they've been consistently raising the cost of the GPU that the manufacturer pays compared to the MSRP (i.e. OEMs make basically nothing if they dont upcharge over MSRP), giving OEMs way less time to properly design/test their cooling solutions before launch, and in a few cases only giving them worse binned cards.
