Are you ready

Broke out the thesaurus.

Some guesses …

revolutionaryFX

extremeFX

totalFX

finalFX

endFX

explosiveFX (going back to TNT)

cFX (e=mc2 c being the speed of light... lightspeed memory)

nFX

radicalFX

Been lurking for a long time. Registered to feed the guess the name fire.

 

Fxcking Sweet?

 

Some other guesses:

4DFX

GeforceFX (or even worse: Geforce 5 FX 7300)

FXforce

FXtreme

MaFXimum

I really hope they come up with something better than any of these ...

 

Umm, names...

How about just 3dfx. I mean, NVidia owns that trademark now. And why not be reverent to a 3D industry pioneer?

Hmm, I am not funny today, but who cares...

How about:

NVideon 9700
.13Force
Doom 3 Accelerator 1.0
L3D Zeppelin

Also, know how ATI likes to put mean faces on its boxes? You know, the pissed off looking anti-heroes with glowing eyes and stuff? Well, I was thinking NVidia could do the same, except with smiley faces:

Low end (GF4 Ti4200):
Medium (GF4 Ti4600):
High end (NV30):

 

NF1N8FX-l33tk4rd

 

I thought that "log in Nvidia network" was kind of neat... Too bad all its has in one screensaver.

 

Re: Umm, names...

YES!

We all know who's REALLY famous for having faces on their cards' boxes...

 

The quick shot of the demo with the hair looks pretty cool. (Toward the end)

Kinda like lots of little tentacles on the head, but still cool.

 

Good god, does that video clip strike anyone else as being supremely egotistical?
And i firmly believe that the more fluff is presented, means less product is ready....

 

I wouldn't really say egotistical.

I'd say rather incredibly corny, though. That voice...hmm...I'd call that a bit of over acting. Would fans really eat that video up? Found the total effort sort of ridiculous.

Hmm...maybe "pompous". The nature of the effort isn't inherently egotistical at all (IMO), but the presentation strikes me as perhaps self-important if they think all that melodrama is suitable to stand by itself.

 

Well, i find it rather cool and appealing, and it suits the words of the CEO of Nvidia. 8)

 

Well I'll be damned. I learned one thing from the video: its not n-vid-ee-yah, its n-vay-duh.

Wierd.

 

pfft how the hell that get that pronunciation from those letters is beyond me..

Americans

 

It's n-vay-duh?

When I watched the video I thought he clearly said n-vid-ee-yah, not n-vay-duh.

 

Maybe its 3d-FX 5000!!!

 

well, the clairvoyant bloke from that GF3 demo pronounces it as n-VID-ee-yah . . .

err. are we off-topic, yet?

ta,
-.rb

 

Za - ha - doom?

 

If they name it 3dfx, I'll buy one for their balls.
Last time I heard, the Mr. Huang couldn't say "3dfx" without converting to "3D graphics" LOL..

 

Oh no nVadar?

I knew they were of the dark side!!
