    I think its a PCB manufacturer like topsearch (I have a few topsearch MXM cards). The logo isn't on a lot of stuff especially anything older so I don't think its a certification.

    N1996 and n11071 are probably certifications, right?

    Anyway interesting because I think Clevo used to make their own cards. I like to know these things, not sure what we could learn from it though.

    Clevo manufacturer the PCB and just bought the chips from Nvidia/ATI? I thought the PCB was all outsourced, TSMC just fabbed the chips. At least that is what the case is for DRAM.

    Yes in the hi-res I linked of the asus mobo, the check mark with n13219 is austrailia/nz C-Tick mark, the circle with the arrow D33005 is taiwan's bsmi mark

    Pegatron manufacturers the asus board, so I'm not sure how it would be a PCB manufacturer. At that point the PCB is just a raw material, so displaying a logo of a raw materials supplier so prominently would be curious.

    The search must continue... we need someone who can read that text underneath the logo.

    EDIT: I may have found it, reverse logistics certification:

    Pegatron is a member: http://www.reverselogisticstrends.com/members.php

    EDIT 2: Nevermind, see post directly below!
