Nvidia has a long history in the PC gaming space and it's leveraging every inch of that for its briefing at CES this year, one of the world's biggest technology conferences. All of this is presumably to get as many eyes as possible onto the unveiling of its next generation of graphics cards.
Tweeted out on January 1, five days before its CES briefing on January 6, Nvidia announced there would be "5 classic cards up for grabs", starting with the GeForce 256, which Nvidia considers to be the first GPU in the world.
