Hi,
could someone explain the BFG naming schema to me, more so in light of the 8800's new cards coming out.
I was always under the impression that the GTX was better than the GT and the "OC" extention was just overclocked verion of the card.

The refresh GTX will be comprehensively better than the GT but the GT as is nips at the heels of the current GTX as it uses the new core.
so the current 8800 GT is smidgen behind the current 8800 GTX - but the refresh will help it leap forward again.
What about the other GT$ cards ? the GTS for example
GTS is also due a refresh and will retain it's position between the GT and GTX, but as it stands the GT is better than the current GTS
GTS is like the previous gen GTO right? Or is that another one they will roll out.
Daft question i'm sure, but how will we know which is which, i mean the old GTX and the new, will there be some clear definition, i assume there will be a price divide and eventually the older ones will be filtered out, but in the meanwhile?
Old GTS and GTX are/will be EOL so you won't be able to buy them when stock runs out.
It wouldn't make sense if it didn't use the new chip.
The GT would still have the edge.
