Posted August 3, 2016 It's probably because they couldn't think of anymore cool Titan names anymore... I mean stuff like Titan Y and Titan P just sounds stupid.... People would end up calling them "Titan, why?!?" or Titan Pee if that was the case. Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples: Do this: Quote And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor! Or this: @DocSwag Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market. Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me! I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Posted August 3, 2016 I think they should bring back the 3dfx name and only use it for the Titan. Then it could be the 3dfx Titan, followed by a simple generation number.
