Rebirth of Fortune Soars

To be honest, in Qin Feng's mind, Nvidia is indeed the most powerful, followed by ati, and now the most beautiful voodoo (voodoo) is third.

　　 But at this moment, naturally, I can't say that.

　　 "I'm really sorry, the national and cultural differences. In our China, the more important the more important, the more it ranks behind." Qin Feng explained quickly.

　　 In this world, there is no better excuse than this excuse.

　　 Sure enough, this explanation made the three people's expressions calm down.

"Three, now, I just want to talk to you about cooperation!" Qin Feng said seriously, "Now, your company's voodoo (voodoo) graphics card is the most powerful in the computer market. 3D graphics cards, but also facing crises and challenges. Our company also faces a strong win-tel alliance!"

　　 The three of them did not say a word, but looked at Qin Feng. For Qin Feng's alarmist talk, they wanted to know what Qin Feng could tell.

　　 Qin Feng saw that the three of them did not leave, but stayed behind, knowing that there was a play.

　　 Anyway, at least if people didn't leave, then give yourself a chance.

　　 "First of all, your company's graphics card is very poor in the development of 2d performance!" Qin Feng said.

　　 The three nodded. They have no objection to this. After all, their voodoo (voodoo) graphics card was originally designed for 3d games, and 2d performance is a little bit worse.

　　 There is no way at this point. Fortunately, voodoo 2 is also enhanced in 2d. Although it is not top-notch, it is much better than the first generation. It can only be said to be worse than ati, but it doesn't have to be worse than other brands.

　　 "Of course, in 2d, this is easy to catch up, and the future of computer games is still in 3d!" Qin Feng said.

　　 The three nodded. If Qin Feng wants to say that 2d is important, then they will just leave.

　　 "Let's talk about 3d, I believe the three seniors should know that Microsoft's win98 system will be released soon!" Qin Feng said.

　　 When the three heard of Microsoft's name, a slight expression of disgust appeared on their faces.

　　 Qin Feng saw that it was more interesting.

　　 "And Microsoft has just launched a version with Nvidia, you should know it too!" Qin Feng said.

　　 Rose nodded.

　　 Can they be unclear. For Microsoft, they really don't have a good impression. Too overbearing. Since the launch of win95, Microsoft has become more and more domineering. Use their strong dominance in the operating system market to require major manufacturers to jointly develop directx standards.

　　 Is this standard good? Naturally it is good. A common hardware driver standard is provided for all involved personnel, so that game developers do not have to write different drivers for each brand of hardware, and it also reduces the complexity of users installing and setting up hardware.

　　 It can be said that this standard is very good. But the problem also arises here, which is launched by Microsoft. Once the global response is received, all relevant hardware companies and game companies must rely on this platform for development.

　　 Although the beneficiary is the world, the biggest beneficiary is Microsoft. With this platform, Microsoft will have no rivals in the desktop system in the future. It is impossible for anyone to challenge Microsoft.

　　 In this case, everyone will look at Microsoft's face in the future.

　　 This is what their 3dfx company does not want.

　　The three founders of the company jumped out of the company and started their own businesses with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars, just for that freedom.

　　 Therefore, they do not compromise. They are the only display chip company that does not open to Microsoft's directx.

　　 They have their pride.

　　 "But Nvidia and Microsoft have cooperated, and Nvidia will become your company's most powerful opponent." Qin Feng said.

　　 "Nvidia?" The three of them twitched.

　　 As for Nvidia, how could it be their opponent.

　　Ati is almost the same.

　　 Qin Feng smiled.

"I have an internal information. Nvidia will launch an epoch-making 3D graphics card called tnt within this year!" Qin Feng said, "If my information is correct, the technical index of tnt should be the core of 0.35 microns. Process, 90mhz core frequency, 8m video memory, 110mhz video memory frequency, as for its pixel fill rate, it reached an astonishing 180m per second." Qin Feng said slowly.

　　 When tnt was born, like its name, it exploded the world.

　　 directly became the world's most popular graphics card that year, and directly drove voodoo (voodoo) from the altar.

　　Because, today's most popular voodoo (voodoo) graphics card, the pixel fill rate is only 90m per second while the other aspects are almost the same.

　　 It can be said that in terms of pixel fill rate, NVIDIA's tnt has doubled directly.

Pixel fill rate refers to the number of pixels rendered by the graphics processing unit per second. The unit is mpixel/s (million pixels per second) or gpixel/s (billion pixels per second), which is used to measure the current graphics card The most common indicator of pixel processing performance. The rendering pipeline of the graphics card is an important part of the display core, and is a set of special channels in the display core responsible for matching graphics with colors. The more rendering pipelines, the higher the working frequency of each set of pipelines (usually the core frequency of the graphics card), the higher the fill rate of the graphics card drawn, and the higher the performance of the graphics card, so it can be filled from the pixels of the graphics card Roughly judge the performance of the graphics card.

　　It can be said that this directly affects the performance of the graphics card. Especially in 3d processing, the pixel fill rate is very important.

　　 After the three listened, they were obviously shocked.

　　 If it really comes out, then voodoo 2 is defeated. It is even said that the voodoo 3 they are developing has a pixel fill rate that is not as good as tnt. Voodoo 3 is planned to be launched in the middle of next year.

　　 The gap is too big.

　　 "Qin Feng, how could you know Nvidia's internal secrets?" Ross couldn't believe it.

　　 Qin Feng smiled ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He naturally didn't know, but as one of the game fans who admired tnt and wanted to ask for a piece of unavailable game, he knew well about the performance of subsequent generations of NVIDIA.

　　 There is no way, all kinds of media reports back then were crazy about Nvidia's graphics card performance. Nvidia has never been disappointed by its fans. Its development speed is far beyond Moore's Law. Its performance has doubled in less than 18 months at all, and its price has been reduced by half.

　　 Therefore, Qin Feng went to Nvidia. However, Nvidia, which truly masters the core technology, is not a bird of its own. In other words, Nvidia directly embraces the big tree of Microsoft, so there is no need to cooperate with Qin Feng.

　　 "If this is the case, then we will indeed be in trouble!" Rose frowned.

　　 "No, it's not just trouble, but crisis!" Qin Feng kept fighting, "Because, my source, the price of tnt, most likely will not exceed $200!"

　　 Not more than 200 dollars? !
