Yup, Pine Group, makers of the XFX brand of video cards have been around for awhile. They arent generally thought of as the top quality manufacturers. I would stick with Asus or Gainward for a video card. Just my $.02

Stay away from it.

Do they make modems as well(or, at least, re-badge them)?

Pine Group manufacturers video cards, modems, motherboards, optical drives, PC cameras, sound cards and storage media. Check them out here: http://www.pinegroup.com/ Always go with better known brands, no matter what product you are looking for. Pine is not quality. HTH

Another reason to stay away from Tiger Direct - all their cheap stuff is Pine.
