Since November of 2000 information had been gradually leaking about the performance of NVIDIA's next generation 3D accelerator, formerly designated the NV20, but now called (surprise, surprise) the GeForce3. The development of this latest generation of graphics boards is closely tied to Microsoft’s most recent DirectX graphics API, DX8.
Len "Viking1" Hjalmarson gives us an informational preview of the technology behind, and capabilities of, NVIDIA's much anticipated, high-powered video GPU or graphics processing unit.

For us simmers, if the GeForce 3 is to be a viable solution right now, it will be the bandwith that does it. Special effects slowdowns, and texture induce d stutter and texture thrashing behind us at last> well soon see.
