In an exclusive report from TweakTown, Anthony Garreffa says that the next-gen of NVIDIA graphics cards will be called the 11 series, and not the 20 series. Garreffa's source also claims that the cards will not necissarily end in 70 or 80 like we are used to.
I expected the 11 series, it made sense, but losing the 70 and 80 naming scheme seems odd to me. Perhaps we will see more at the GDC keynote.
NVIDIA could launch new graphics cards with names like GeForce GTX 1185 and GTX 1175 instead, differentiating them against the GTX 1070 and GTX 1080. I could see this happening, as it would be an interesting move for sure, and I really like the idea of a GTX 1185 for example.
