[Pc_Support] nVidia G80 begins with 8800GTX and GTS ...

[Bryan J. Smith]

nVidia is reviving the old "GTS" moniker instead of the "GT" for the
G80, something not seen since the NV1x (GeForce2).

Details on the devices are in these two articles:

It's clear the engines in the G8x series are more revolutionary than
evolutionary -- probably the first major change since the NV3x
(GeForce FX) which the NV4x (GeForce 6) and G7x (GeForce 7) evolved
from.  As such, performance might not be as superior out-the-gate --
at least not for the clocks involved -- and it will probably be the
G9x in late 2007 or 2008 that will refine the tweaks.  Let alone
that's before we consider the power-use v. performance at current
feature sizes, resulting die and raw power hunger in the G8x.
