Did anyone else see that Nvidia have now launched, quietly, a GT360GS mobile gpu, which is a GT210 or 220, then a GT310/320 in desktop and for the laptop version they've bumped it all the way to a GT360, which by naming alone would indicate it was the equivilent of a cut down 260gtx part, but the next gen. I can understand them moving the naming, I don't even care that much(though why they didn't always call them GT310/320 I don't know, but how they can give it what seems a far higher card number, for a slower clocked part is insane.

Thats why i jumped ship, i did have a 8800gt then it was all this renaming carry on. Like the 9800gt was pritty much the same as the 8800gt but more £££, then the 8800gtx i could go on for ages.

Why though? ATI were bought by AMD, they're trying to consolidate the brand name, and build thier own reputation for quality GPUs.

AMD and ATI have never had as much brand recognition as say Intel or Nvidia, so splitting the brand image would make no sense, as it'll further fragment said recognition. At least producing said CPUs and GPUs, they'll help to improve brand recognition of the AMD logo.
