2. 3DNow! - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3DNow!

   3DNow! was developed at a time when 3D graphics were becoming mainstream in PC multimedia and games. Realtime display of 3D graphics depended heavily on the host CPU's floating-point unit (FPU) to perform floating-point calculations, a task in which AMD's K6 processor was easily outperformed by its competitor, the Intel Pentium II.

3. Streaming SIMD Extensions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_SIMD_Extensions

   Intel's first IA-32 SIMD effort was the MMX instruction set. MMX had two main problems: it re-used existing x87 floating-point registers making the CPUs unable to work on both floating-point and SIMD data at the same time, and it only worked on integers. SSE floating-point instructions operate on a new independent register set, the XMM ...

5. MMX (instruction set) - Wikipedia

   Pentium II processor with MMX technology. MMX defines eight processor registers, named MM0 through MM7, and operations that operate on them.Each register is 64 bits wide and can be used to hold either 64-bit integers, or multiple smaller integers in a "packed" format: one instruction can then be applied to two 32-bit integers, four 16-bit integers, or eight 8-bit integers at once.

   Next month, in late June 1999, AMD's Athlon processor was released which featured the extended MMX instructions, but not SSE. Today, these extended MMX instructions are notable as being the common subset of MMX extensions that work across both AMD Athlon and SSE-capable Intel processors.

7. POD (video game) - Wikipedia

   POD was influenced by games such as Super Mario Kart and Ridge Racer. [5] It was published in 1997. It was one of the first games to support the MMX instruction set [5] and came bundled as an OEM version with computers using Intel Pentium or Pentium II MMX processors, and some AMD K6 systems.
