NVIDIA and DirectX 6.0

NVIDIA Corporation said it co-developed the advanced multi-texturing features, an advanced 3D capability, in Microsoft's new DirectX 6.0 Direct3D application programming.

The hardware race keeps getting louder. NVIDIA Corporation said it co-developed the advanced multi-texturing features, an advanced 3D capability, in Microsoft’s new DirectX 6.0 Direct3D application programming interface (API). The new functionality in Direct3D enables 3D software titles to take direct advantage of the true single-pass multi-texturing found on NVIDIA’s RIVA TNT 3D processor.

It may not be the biggest story of the month, but NVIDIA and DirectX 6.0 is exactly the sort of thing PC players are tracking right now.
