GeForce 9900 GTX & GTS Slated For July Launch

[RPGWiZaRD]

because they said it will be 9900GTX which i find nice name

and now and from no where they change the name to GTX 280

I'm not angry but iam tired of all the wrong news spread every where for

months

Just don't take every rumor for granted. Personally I use a great pinch of logic when deciding what to believe, after 9xxx series is already used and this chip will be a whole new gen (from NVIDIA point of view), 9900 would be too close to the old cards (after all this GT200 chip is expected to be like 7800 compared to 6800 or 8800 compared to 7900 situation) and 10800GTX would perhaps seem a bit farfetched, naming change at this point makes perfect sense especially after all this fuss about complicated naming. It's a win-win situation, NVIDIA made a logical decision what the market was requesting and consumers also welcome it.

Guess there will be probably 3xx series left for the "optimized" GT200 chip then which I think I'll wait for as these cards are out of my budget and I prefer to buy "2nd wave" stuff at a more attractive price too unless there will be a very similiar card to the 260 version but lower clocks or something.
