Talk:Fahrenheit (microarchitecture)

Latest comment: 1 month ago by 2600:1702:4EB2:1F50:3D37:6AD1:DA8D:2690 in topic No named Fahrenheit microarchitecture

The description contradicts itself:

> Fahrenheit is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, and released in 1998, as the successor to STG-2000, Riva 128 (NV1, NV2, NV3...) microarchitecture. It was named with reference to Fahrenheit[1] and used with STG-2000, Riva 128.


How can it be the successor to STG-2000 but also used in STG-2000?

No named Fahrenheit microarchitecture

edit

A Fahrenheit microarchitecture did not exist. The first Nvidia named microarchitecture was (internally) named Celsius and it was in response to Microsoft project the Fahrenheit Graphics API : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit_(graphics_API)

Before that, individual chips were simply codenamed with numbers like NV1, NV2, NV3, NV4. 2600:1702:4EB2:1F50:3D37:6AD1:DA8D:2690 (talk) 00:44, 6 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
