**[NVIDIA Is Really "Releasing Cards," But This Time It's Not GPUs—Introducing Their First Set of Trading Cards]** According to monitoring by Beating, NVIDIA has launched its first set of *GeForce Trading Cards*. Series 1 includes 14 designs, chronicling over 30 years of GeForce GPUs, games, and tech demos. The featured cards include the NV1, GeForce 256, GeForce 3, 7800 GTX, GTX 1080, and the *Cyberpunk 2077* edition RTX 2080 Ti. Classic tech demos like Bubble, Chameleon, and Medusa have also been turned into cards. This set of trading cards will not be available for public sale. Instead, they can only be obtained through the "Summer of RTX" online giveaway or by attending designated events to claim them for free. NVIDIA has already distributed the cards at Bilibili World in Shanghai, and they will also appear at QuakeCon and gamescom in the future. Amid the backdrop of increasingly expensive GPUs, players have had mixed reactions to this "card release." PC Gamer quoted a netizen joking: "Finally, an NVIDIA card I can afford." [Original Link]
