HZ interviews NVIDIA's Dan Vivoli


by Ronald Hanaki

Here's an outtake of how NVIDIA will use the technology that they have acquired from 3dfx:
[Marco] How will you use the technology from 3dfx in your products?

[Dan] The current chips were already under advanced development, when we acquired 3dfx. NV30 will be the first chip that 3dfx engineers will have worked on so it is the first one that can feel their influence. I don't say it will be directly derived from those, but will owe something to 3dfx architecture, somehow. I can't say more.

The MS Xbox, DDR/Rambus, and mobile GPUs are among the other topics that they discuss in this interview.
