"It's possible, or it could be that NVIDIA is suggesting that the upcoming 400-series products will offer double the performance of the 200-series range. We like the sound of that."

Nope, just NVidia thinking Bigger number = More sales.

I feel nauseous.

Quite a sad sign that Fermi is a long way off if there's to be another marketing run on renaming existing products as the 300 series in the interim.

I feel nauseous.

Yes, the word 'productised' does that to people.

Incidentally, there's a new Disney film out about a princess who gets frogised.

I am guessing that someone at nVidia (maybe even that someone who's forums name begins with "R") fed back a lot of reactions to the 3xx cards that got released around xmas time......Perhaps they then thought it prudent to jump on a series

[Biscuit]

Who wants to put money on the full 2** series being rebadged into the 3** series?

[Mullet]

I'd had enough of idle speculation some weeks ago.... this latest news simply reinforces the recent decision I made.... to move to ATi and get a 5870!!

[mercyground]

another rebrand... We're not late... its new!

/me spits.

its geting more and more pathetic.

[ddg4005]

Sounds like Nvidia wants to make sure no one thinks Fermi is simply a rebranded product. I don't mind the use of 4xxx for the new GPUs; they only need to perform as advertised.

[Syllopsium]

Yawn. Still implementing the PhysX lockout? Thought so. Sticking with ATI for my next card then.
