I don't see why people think that this is so confusing to the normal consumer, if you look at the back of the box in most cases, it has the series of cards listed and how "better" they are in order, and if you really think about it. Comparing old series to new series cards. There really isn't any other way to do it. What Nvidia has picked is the less confusing possible for the market I think. Maybe we should have a brainstorm Geforce naming scheme thread.
The only thing i can think of. is GS V1, V2, V3. GT V1, V2, V3....and so on. But that sounds dumb and is still pretty much the same thing as what Nvidia is doing with this new number letter scheme. If you really think about it, you have got to be an idiot to not figure out the new scheme. I mean S comes before T so obviously the GS is slower than the GT and GTX is obviously faster than GT and GTS is obviously between GT and GTX because of the Combining of the S and T. then you have numbers such as 240-260-280 to tell which is faster in that letter series. How much more plainly could you put it. I know its hard for the normal consumer to understand which is the faster card from the past series. But there really is no other way of doing it, besides them looking it up. unless they do a comparison on the back of the box to the older series of cards.
