The bigger question is, does it violate any patents? Not necessarily intentionally, but because there's only so many ways you can build a GPU and (almost) all of them are patented already. Apple themselves failed to build a GPU from the ground up, so it's actually difficult.

#4Interesting, are the Linux drivers upstreamed or is this another proprietary GPU driver?

That's a less interesting question on the whole. But, it quite likely does.

#6Is "Moore" of the company's name is the "Moore" of Moore's law?
If so, I wonder why one would name his/her company after their competitor's founder.

Many of those core GPU patients must be expiring right now.
The GeForce 4 is 20 years old at this point, and many newer technologies are going to have significantly older patents.

That's right, but then you're building a GPU with 20 year old tech

Same reason I have a $25 pair of "Tesla" brand sneakers from Amazon. The Chinese are as obsessed with American brands as we are.

> does it use any stolen ip?

The former implies the latter.
On the other hand if the IP isn't stolen but would still fall afoul of the patent then I would argue that the patent is wrongly provided. Patents don't exist to protect obvious implementations.
I'm not a lawyer but we all know patent law is all kinds of fucked up.
