Introducing the 3D Blaster Annihilator - the 3D game accelerator based on the world's first Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) - the GeForce 256 from NVIDIA. This unparalleled new processor is made up of more than 22 million transistors - that's more than twice the complexity of a Pentium III! 3D gaming will never be the same. The GeForce256 is the first chip to integrate Transform and Lighting geometry engines into the graphics chip alongside the triangle setup and rendering engines, making it a true Graphics Processing Unit. This brings unparalleled polygon counts and advanced lighting effects to the game environment, pushing the graphics realism envelope while freeing the CPU to focus on more realistic game physics, more sophisticated artificial intelligence, and interactive real-time game events. The 3D Blaster Annihilator introduces new lighting and surface rendering effects, such as Cubic Environment Mapping for more accurate reflections and specular lighting, 8 hardware accelerated dynamic lights for free (no performance hit), and Vertex Skinning - taking image quality to a new level. Its 3D rendering engine is the most complete found on any PC-based accelerator. Critical features like full 32-bit color rendering, multi-texturing using textures as large as 2048x2048, emboss and dot-product bump-mapping, full-screen anti-aliasing, and stencil buffering deliver 3D images with stunning visual quality. Images so precise, they blur the line between reality and gameplay!
