Launched in 1998, TechSpot started its life as a personal tech blog called “Pure Rendition,” that reported news on the budding 3D accelerator technology based on the Rendition Verite chip<\/a>, one of the first mainstream and consumer 3D graphics processing units.<\/p>\n

Shortly after, the site was renamed to “3D Spotlight” to expand coverage to the nascent 3D industry represented at the time by the likes of 3dfx<\/a> and later Nvidia<\/a> and ATI<\/a>. In 2001, the site was relaunched once again, pointing to the new domain TechSpot.com. The name was acquired after the 90s dot-com bubble for a handsome $200 as the original owners had no good use for it. From there, the site expanded to cover to the entire technology industry. By that point, TechSpot was receiving around a million visitors each month. These days, TechSpot is home to over 8 million monthly readers, catering to PC power users, gamers and IT professionals around the globe.<\/p>\n
