Show your appreciation for a landmark in PC gaming graphics wherever the road takes you. Founded in 1994, 3dfx Interactive became known for Voodoo hardware and Glide, then took the significant step from supplying chips to producing its own branded cards. The company's rise and abrupt ending make it a fascinating part of 1990s computing history. This car magnet is a straightforward choice for collectors, former PC gamers, and fans who enjoy sharing their interest in early 3D acceleration.
Founded on August 24, 1994, as 3D/fx, Inc., 3dfx Interactive was an American graphics hardware company headquartered in San Jose, California. Founders Ross Smith, Gary Tarolli, and Scott Sellers had worked at Silicon Graphics; Gordie Campbell of TechFarm later joined them. The company sent its first Voodoo Graphics chip to manufacturing on November 6, 1995, and became known for 3D acceleration and its Glide API. Initially an OEM chip supplier, it entered the consumer card market as affordable 3D hardware expanded. Voodoo Graphics and Voodoo2 helped establish its presence, followed by integrated products including Voodoo Banshee and Voodoo3. In December 1998, 3dfx acquired graphics-card maker STB Systems, aiming to build and sell its own cards; the shift strained relationships with some OEM customers. Delays and stronger competition affected later Voodoo products. 3dfx acquired GigaPixel in March 2000. Nvidia acquired most of its assets on December 15, 2000, primarily for intellectual property, and 3dfx ended product support on February 15, 2001. The company filed for bankruptcy on October 15, 2002.
