There is no evidence that an Nvidia GPU microarchitecture by the name Fahrenheit ever existed. At that time, NVidia simply gave each chip they designed a numerical codename based on the order they designed it - NV1, NV2, NV3, NV4 and NV5. Plus, in driver code from that time (unlike celsius and later) there is no evidence of a Fahrenheit. The only provided sources are websites that seem to have automatically generated pages and are therefore not reliable, or are from at least 25 years after the fact.
What Fahrenheit actually was was a cancelled 3D API intended to merge DirectX and OpenGL: https://www.techmonitor.ai/technology/nvidia_takes_the_3d_heat_with_fahrenheit (there is already a wiki article on this) - Skynorth/Starfrostmy talk page 11:28, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

- Endorse I dont see any evidence regarding this microarchitecture, "Fahrenheit" to be made by NVIDIA ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Cooldudeseven7 join in on the tea talk 11:43, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
