I liked ''Ultra'' from back in the day, 8800 GTX and 8800 Ultra etc.

Why Ti?

Yeah, it's just a name but I'd like to see the return of Ultra. 
It's short for Titanium, it's an artefact from the old GeForce 2 days where it meant a slightly better GeForce 2 GTS that was not as good as the significantly faster GeForce 2 Ultra (I know, I was silly enough to buy a GeForce 2 Ti when my GeForce 2 GTS broke and I was very disappointed with the ~10% performance increase in 3DMark).

Id be happy with geforce, year, 1-10 editions tbh.

The GF2 Ultra wasn't much faster than the Ti. The only difference between them was a 30MHz bump on the memory clock for the Ultra, which was achievable by just about any Ti through overclocking anyway. All the GF2 cards had exactly the same core configuration, so it was only memory bandwidth seperating them (although most GTS cards only had 32MB of memory, so fell off at higher resolutions).
