In certain situations, when a company is using practically the same chips for two or more product generations, the need to rename a certain older-generation product is unavoidable. In order to simplify that process for the end users and avoid them drowning in a torrent of names, prefixes and suffixes, the simplest way is to rename the product with some slight changes and place it (either by name or price) into the newer category.

Luckily, history doesn’t have to repeat itself, and this move is entirely justified in the case of GTX560. This card is the one that should be put right behind GTX560 with the Ti(tanium) suffix, and therefore replace the very popular GTX460 with 1 GB VRAM, which was the first Fermi-based product to offer truly excellent performance at a moderate price…
