Chapter 978 (1/2)
To tell the truth, in Qin Feng's heart, NVIDIA is indeed the most powerful, followed by ATI, and voodoo (voodoo) with unlimited scenery is the third.
But now, of course, we can't say that.
”I'm really sorry, national and cultural differences. In China, the more important it is, the more important it is. ” Qin Feng quickly explained.
At the end of the day, there is no better excuse than this one.
Sure enough, this explanation eased their faces.
”Three, now, I just want to talk to you about cooperation!” Qin Feng said seriously, ”today, your voodoo (voodoo) graphics card is the most powerful 3D graphics card in the computer market, but it is also facing crises and challenges. And our company is also facing a strong win Tel alliance! ”
The three did not say anything, but looked at Qin Feng. For Qin Feng's alarmist talk, they want to know what flowers Qin Feng can say.
Qin Feng saw that the three didn't leave, but stayed. He knew there was a play.
Anyway, at least if people didn't leave, they gave themselves a chance.
”First of all, your company's graphics card has poor 2D performance development!” Qin Feng said.
The three nodded. They have no objection to this. After all, their voodoo (voodoo) graphics card is designed specifically for 3D games. If the 2D performance is poor, it is poor.
I can't help it. Fortunately, Voodoo 2 has also been enhanced in 2D. Although it is not the top, it is much better than the first generation. It can only be said that it is worse than ATI, but it doesn't have to be worse than other brands.
”Of course, in 2D, it's easy to catch up. The future of computer games is still in 3D!” Qin Feng said.
The three nodded. If Qin Feng wants to say 2D is important, they will directly brush their sleeves and leave.
”Let's talk about 3D. I believe all three students should know that Microsoft's Win98 system is about to be released!” Qin Feng said.
When they heard the name of Microsoft, a slight expression of disgust appeared on their faces.
Qin Feng saw that there was more drama.
”Microsoft has just launched directx6.0 with NVIDIA. You should also know!” Qin Feng said.
Ross nodded.
Don't they know. They really don't have a good impression of Microsoft. Too overbearing. Since the launch of Win95, Microsoft has become more and more domineering. Use their strong dominance in the operating system market to require major manufacturers to jointly formulate DirectX standards.
Is this standard good? Nature is good. It provides a common hardware driver standard for all involved personnel, so that game developers do not have to write different drivers for each brand of hardware, and also reduces the complexity of installing and setting hardware.
It can be said that this standard is very good. But the problem is here, which is launched by Microsoft. Once the global response is received, all relevant hardware companies and game companies must rely on this platform to develop.
Although the beneficiary is the world, the biggest beneficiary is Microsoft. With this platform, Microsoft will have no rivals in the desktop system in the future. No one can challenge Microsoft.
In this case, everyone's future depends on Microsoft's face.
This is what their 3dfx company does not want.
Their three founders, who jumped out of the company and started a business from a post with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars, are for that freedom.
