DF Direct: Inside GeForce 256 - 25th Anniversary Special



You probably didn't know but now you do that today is the 25th Anniversary of the release of GeForce 256

October 11th, 1999 was the launch date of the first GPU and the beginning of the gaming world we know today

 
The GeForce 256 was the first Graphics card I ever owned. I still have it somewhere. But it no longer works due to it overheating.

Uh, what?

I had their Riva TNT and TNT 2, both which pre-dated the GeForce. I also had the 3Dfx voodoo and Matrox GPU (forget what it was called). Hell, the voodoo 2 was earlier than the GeForce.

I basically bought every single GPU from every company from the Voodoo up until the GeForce 4, as they released. The only one I never had was the S3 Virge.
