If NVidia ever rebrands GeForce as Voodoo, I'd shut them up and force them to take my money. 😉

The "NVidia 3dfx Voodoo Necronomicon" card. Now in the following chipsets:
720- "Klatuu"
760- "Verrata"
795 XT with 6GB Ram- "Nikto FTW edition"

With the advances in miniaturization that have taken place since the time of the V5 you could probably fit several VSA-100 chips on the same silicon that one took up back in 2000 along with modern shaders.

What I would like to see is a redesigned V3 or V5 with the vram sharing the same silicon as the die on the same bga package. On top of that besides higher clocks I would at least like it to have dx 9c and sm3 support ontop of everything else but what the 2D core to be as it is. A neat but small epic little ship in pci form would be great for vintage rigs.

Argh, an April Fool's article. 😵

I'd really like to see a Voodoo remake, with increase boost in performance, perfect backward compatibility with GLide games, and capability to do FSAA for all GLide games.

Of course, but that doesn't make it less funny 🤣

"Nikto" means "no one" in Russian

Had Army of Darkness going through my head. 😎
Or the original "klatuu barada niktu" from Day the Earth Stood Still

It'd be cool to see the brand come back but as it's NVIDIA owned and everything is standardised now it'd just be another generic card. It'd be nice if their enthusiast cards took on the branding though.

Why? It's just a name. I much prefer GeForce to be honest...
That article was great, gotta love how it says they used the cooling system from the FX 5800 xD
Is Gary Tarolli still working on Nvidia's latest chips?

If nvidia rebranded the geforce line with voodoo, we'd have the world's first thermally inefficient voodoo cards 😉
