There’s quite a wide variety of pronouniation methods of acronyms and their ilk - I mean “CD-ROM” is a bastard child, obviously, with plenty of siblings.
‘Jif’… Bah.
Not only is it a hard G because Graphics, it’s an acronym, so the pronunciation should try to be unambiguous.
Clever jirl

light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation
LAH-SEER
It’s pronounced ‘queef’.
Except they oscillate light, not amplify it, so that should be pronounced LOSER.
I don’t pronounce it, which makes things much simpler.
It’s pronounced YIFF, everyone knows that!
Ping or Pung?
Couldn’t it be “Pee In Gee”?
Though it’s ping, and anyone who says otherwise is a monster.
Wtf are you talking about, there ain’t a vowel innit! Pee In Gee! When I use wtf do you pronounce it wuhft!? One Internet Demerit 
Oh, there isn’t really a vowel since the I is silent (as is the P, while the ng is nasalized).
I hope the creators some day announce that it’s pronounced phung.
