Erheem. Now being real deal.
Naming scheme always followed the market, this is not new and goes back a long way, even to the x86 or the gigahertz war.
Example: If Intel puts out something like Pentium 4 2.0ghz, AMD will follow with the AthlonXP 2000+.
How does this mean following the market? Simple, the 2000+ had much less Mhz but this goes to show buyers that should be an equivalent. But funny story, the AthlonXP 1800+ already beated the Pentium 4 2.0Ghz with just 1533mhz.
For nowdays, Intel is releasing Intel Core 2xx series so AMD went ahead with the 3xx. Makes sense.
But yeah, I get your point, we used to have great names in the industry as graphic cards goes.
3dfx Voodoo, Banshee. Matrox Millennium, Marvel, Parhelia. S3 Trio, Virge and Savage. It would be nice to see that again instead of a bunch of numbers.
