Well yes but no.

GF3 was a very short lived product, even more short lived than GF2MX.

And the crucial thing here is what at the time of GF/GF2 you still could buy a computer without a proper[0] 3D and video output acceleration[1], but by the time of GF4MX (which is GF2MX on the booster shoes and VPE - and only a year and half later at the worst) you have no option not to get a full package.

SIS died, 3Dfx died even earlier, S3 became irrelevant and Intel was for the button pushers till i945 - which came only in 2005.

And while at first the price even for GF4MX420 was ~$100 it did two things:

- pushed the price for GF2MX series well below $50 (and quite soon followed the suit) so anything now had DX7 level 3D on-board

- pushed the price for every other 3D accelerator waaay down

- made MPEG and video acceleration the default in everything

[0] emphasis on the 'proper'

[1] though you needed to get out of the way to do so, eg i815, G450 - but you could!
