Version History

UPDATE - 8/4/2004: THIS VERSION OF THE FAQ IS NO LONGER UPDATED. I am no longer responsible for updating the GeForce FAQ. I have handed over maintenance of the FAQ to another website. To see the latest version, go to the following URL:
http://go.to/geforcefaq
The copy on this server is maintained for historical purposes and to redirect people to the new site.

On the version numbers:

Each day that I update the version goes up by 0.1.
If I update twice in a day, the second update has 'a' added to the end, then 'b', and so on.

There's nothing special about major version number increases (7.9 to 8.0 is of the same importance as 7.5 to 7.6)

Some of the early version numbers are missing: this is because not every version was distributed.
