Nvidia Rebrand Leaked - Low End 9 Series to Become G1x0

[AuDioFreaK39]

It's been quite a while since Nvidia rebranded its cards and we were beginning to think it has dropped the habit altogether. However, several leaked ads, courtesy of German retailer MediaMarkt all but confirm the new naming scheme.

More here.

What the hell do you mean its been a while since Nvidia rebranded cards?

The geforce 9800GT is the GF8800 GT

The geforce 9600GSO is a rebranded/bios-ed 8800 GS

Nvidia is all about that ****, its marketing and recycling nyuk nyuk nyuk!

I'm actually a bit of an nVidia fan, but...

Unfortunately for nVidia, their mids and low end was planned this way. They had to add a few cards along the way to compete, like the 9800gtx+ etc, which makes this whole naming thing crazier. Maybe (hopefully), this will be the last time for these cards, and therell actually be new mids and low end cards

Maybe Apple will stop suing people this year.

Not likely...

Heh not that i care - if its high end then Nvidia is the way to go, otherwise AMD owns the rest of the market (most of it).

this is the kind of **** that puts me off buying from nvidia, ill stick with ati where the image quality is better, and that every time i buy a new card it does not feel like im being shafted, and that is important to me (not being shafted)

What alternate universe have you been living in? The 9600GT is the only original 9 series card.
