Curie (microarchitecture)

Curie is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, and released in 2004, as the successor to the Rankine microarchitecture. It was named with reference to the Polish physicist Marie Salomea Skłodowska–Curie and used with the GeForce 6 and 7 series. Curie was followed by Tesla.
