Geforce GTS 240 presumably with new name KonKorT Mar 13th, 09, 05:46 AM #1

Last days many sites report Nvidia has canceled GTS 240. But it looks like it is not the whole true.

Nvidia brings a GTS 240 card with 112 SPs and 675/1690/1100 MHz but not under the name GTS 240. The card shall be named Geforce 9800 GT OC.

Rebranding a rebrand of an already renbranded card, so it would look less like a rebrand. Now thats marketing tactics right there people... lol.

I think the name 9800GT OC is a better fit for their old gen cards since it def don't sound as deceiving as GTX series. But nonetheless, I don't see why there is a need to change name not once, but twice.
