Old School "Ti" Naming is back huh?

 

[beltzy]

What does the "Ti" marker designate?

 

[geekapproved]

The ti4200 was the shiznit in the day.

I believe it was during the "titanium" craze and Ti is the atomic symbol for titanium.

 

[jerreece]

^ I think the "Ti" was indeed "Titanium" back in the day. As ivan_chess noted.

GTX 585 Ultra?
GT 545 MX?
I'm so going to get the GTX 560 Ti, just love the Ti thing

 

[The_Prophecy]

Interesting.... heard the rumors but never thought they actually would bring it back.

 

[mister g]

I think Ti was meant to seperate two different classes of GPUs, maybe it's to seperate two different versions of the same GPU (x2 560 chips instead of 1?)

 

[LePhuronn]

Originally, Ti had programmable shaders, MX didn't.

What the Ti denotes now remains to be seen.

 

[rohitbaran]

Come on Toms. You have the card right! If you have, you have probably reviewed it by now. Stop teasing with such news!

 

[megamanx00]

I remember when they used that with the GeForce 3 TI 200 and 500 as well as the GeForce 2 Ti. Yup, been a while

 

[rohitbaran]

BTW, Radeon 6970 1GB is to be released at a price of around $279. It will it this Geforce card alive.

 

[joelmartinez]

yep itting the 560 alive is what the 6970 1gb will do (mockery intentional)

 

[JohnnyLucky]

GEEZ! That goes back a few years. Are the marketing guru's trying for some sort of nostalgia gimmick?

 

[rmmil978]

Now if they will just release a VooDoo Radeon 6970...

 

[Cons29]

ti4200 was the best selling card that time, bang for the buck indeed.
maybe amd will bring back "pro"

let the price war begin

 

[falchard]

TI = Trouble Inside

 

[Blessedman]

I just realized I am an Nvidia fanboy

 

[jfem]

Where's the GTX 560 Ti review? I hope it's good, at least as good as a gtx 470.

i wish this thing had teh old Ti Prices LOL if i rember correctly the 4600Ti was like right at 300-350 the 4400Ti was at 250 ( i got mine of sale for 215 though) and the 4200 TI was like 180 (i could be mistaken but i know for a fact i paid only 215 for the 4400 when it had just came out, but that was on a sale at Mwave.)

 

[mpioca]

So it means the new GTX560 will have shaders, right?

 

[g00fysmiley]

NDA prevents posting gtx560 reviews before release dates... sure they could do it once... but then they stop recieving tech samples and cards/cpu's/mobo's to test ... and i'd liek the sit to keep going, so please by all means wait till release date

 

[belardo]

So is there a GTX 560 and a GTX 560-TI? STUPID moronic nVidia naming.

Ewwwwwwwwww I got a geForce with TI, I've good an erection now!

TI = Totally Idiotic
GTX = Green Turd Xtreme
