NV30 called...

[TechMasterChen]

GeForceFX? Don't know about that but XBITLABS.COM had an article up for a few minutes saying so but I can't get to the site now. Maybe it got pulled?

NVIDIA website?

I am taking all of this as rumors because anything can happen.

If nVidia was hosting it, it's probably use a pay-for service, or probably an nvidia.com address. Plus the site itself says
"P.S. This site is not affiliated with NVIDIA =)"
I get the funny idea that that site might not be affiliated with nVidia.

I don't think the the domain name theory holds much weight. The GeForceFX.com domain is registed to Julie Larson @ yahoo.com in Campbell, CA.... certainly no where near nVidia. Besides the registration info bears absolutely no resemblance to any of NVidia's other domain name records.

My bet is that the GeForceFX.com domain is held cyber-squatter speculating on the release name of the NV30... hoping to draw in big cash if his theory is correct. A fairly obvious theory given the name of CineFX which is well known.

Linky to Xbitlabs claims
Somehow I think their sources are a little dubious, and they evidently decided to assume the domain is owned by nVidia without bothering the check the registration info.
