A couple of misc updates on videocards that we cant have but ponder. Firstly the GameSpot folks take a look at the ill-fated V5-6000 board from 3dfx which is well, very fast. Bummer. After that, the Guru3D guys have dug up the codename for the NV20.. or um.. kinda. You can enable NV20 emulation and try out Quake3, the card shows up at this:
NVIDIA Corporation , 1.2.2 BoomBoom/emulated by GeForce 256/AGP/3DNow!
BoomBoom! Speaking of that, where the heck is the NV20? Remember this story confirming the Fall release? Thanks Klerck
