NVISION is a stand alone event organized by NVIDIA to promote visual computing amongst enthusiast and journalists.

The event is centered around NVIDIA's own products but offers activities usually found at other types of events: a demoscene event, scientific talks, and programming classes. An Electronic Sports World Cup gaming competition was held at the same time.

NVISION 08

The first NVISION event, NVISION 08, was held from August 25 to August 28, 2008 in San Jose, California.[1].

Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman, of Mythbusters fame, busted the myth that CPUs were of bigger importance in the PC than the GPUs by painting a Mona Lisa with a massively parallel paint gun[2].

Guinness World Records was present to officiate the record for the longest continuous LAN party at 36 hours.[3]

Kevin Gee from Microsoft revealed more details publicly about what would be in the next DirectX 11.[4]
