NoteThe source confirms that NVIDIA received venture capital funding in the early period (1993-1997 timeframe is consistent with the founding in April 1993), but states the amount as '$20 million', not '$18 million' as claimed in the record. The date range 1993-1997 is reasonable for early venture funding, but the raised amount is contradicted by the source's explicit statement of $20 million. This is a direct factual discrepancy in the key field 'raised'.
