History of GPUs As Fast As Possible

We've come a long way since Pong was state-of-the-art. Let's have a look at some of the milestones in computer graphics over the years.

Fun Fact: The first ever computer graphics card was the Cromemco Dazzler in 1976. It used the 8-bit S-100 bus and had a resolution of 128 x 128 in 8 colors.

Funny how Intel is Blue. Those 3 together make RGB. This world is incredible and amazing !

I realized AMD always do outlandish stuff like: 64 cores in a enthusiast chip, 8 cores FTW, 6 monitors at once, extreme overclocking could be done with FX CPUs and most importantly, outrageously cheap prices to offer.

You guys should put up some sound dampeners around the green screen. The echo and AC are pretty noticeable.

VPNs are great, but what I want to know is where I can build a beautiful website

2:23 DirectX is not a graphics API. Direct3D is a graphics API. Calling DirectX a graphics API is like calling a car an engine.

I'm really starting to prefer Luke over Linus in these kind of videos.

In 40 years. there will be a crysis 30 and no one will ever survive that game

The 8800GT is what made Nvidia into superstar status IMO. Insane performance for a relatively low price.

5:40 nVidia SLI that wasn't really nVidia's to begin with... I thought you'd mention it in a video about "history of GPUs".

[streetguru]

Kinda sounds like he's yelling through the whole video.

rip ati cards. your flames will be remembered. the flames looked so nice ._.

I love this channel. gives you a decent amount of information on stuff in minutes. yes, that's the whole point, but a lot of the time people mess these kinds of videos up. good job!

Can I build it beautiful with TunnelBear???

"Denise" was the main video controller chip in the Commodore Amiga from 1985. However, the Commodore VIC-20 from 1981 used the VIC (Video Interface Controller) chip and the Commodore 64 from 1983 used the VIC-II.

i want to know what is the reason that you can't expand ram on a gpu.

Here in 2023 and it seems weird to see Luke shouting at a camera when he seems to have found his groove on WAN show.

I had an ATI in my HP desktop. Played battlefield 2 for days. I loved my ATI

This was definitely an interesting video to watch. It's amazing to see how quickly GPU's evolved since 1999.

No mention of the Voodoo Banshee, which was the first gpu to have 3D and 2D graphics processing on a single card? No mention of SLI being invented by 3Dfx and then used by nVidia when they bought 3Dfx? Shame.
