650Ti -> Same core count -> 650TiB -> Only different core count -> GTX 660 (960 vs 768 cores but all the other parts of the chip is activated).
yes of course I know that if you look at my comments here. you kept saying the 650 ti and 650 ti boost were not the same chip but they are. you were misusing the word chip which you have already explained in post 23. not sure why you waited an hour to reply to the other part of my post as all of that was there when you first replied.

Ok. All of them are GK106, i know this. :D

You didn't understood my logic. Go two mine posts back to understood.

you are the one that cant seem to grasp the very reason it would not be called boost. THE CARD ALREADY HAS BOOST. the 650 ti did not so when they added the boost clock they called it boost. :rolleyes:

If G92 (with minor variations) can be 1) 8800 GT, 2) 8800GTS, 3) 9800 GTX, 4) 9800 GTX+, 5) GTS 250, then a 750 Ti with faster memory or higher clocks could easily be called 750 Ti Boost. This is irrespective of the fact that the default 750 Ti already has nVidia's GPU Boost feature. Ultimately the truth is only a minor hurdle in marketing. They can call it literally anything they want short of false advertising

your examples dont help your argument one single bit. calling a card that already has boost, a boost card just because they raise clocks makes no sense at all. even the few people arguing this know there will not actually be a 750 ti boost.

Don't underestimate the stupidity of marketing departments. They could easily release a 750 TI Boost card that allows the card to boost to high-speed than normal boost speeds.

no as the 660, 650 ti and 650 ti boost were ALL GK106 anyway. they called it the boost because the regular 650 ti had a fixed clock. we have the whole internet in front of us so simply look at reviews.

The memory bus for the 650 Ti Boost was larger than the 650ti.

One thing not mentioned yet was that the 650TI Boost added SLI capability.

I'd be very happy if I could SLI the awesomely-efficient 750TI!

Probably not, but if they do, the GTX 750 Ti Boost will be the same as the GTX 750 Ti, just factory overclocked.

Nobody cares that it makes no sense. Nobody but you. Marketing departments don't care if it makes sense. They care that it sells units

so why did they give the 650 ti boost the name "boost". hmm because it added the boost clocks.

of course not all card names make sense and I am well aware of that. let me know when the 750 ti boost actually comes out though. :whiste:

For those continuing to speak with Toyota on this one, its useless. He is incapable of changing his mind after he has made an arbitrary and unfounded claim that something is impossible.

Essentially everyone but him acknowledges that the name could easily be reused and is a solid name to indicate it is faster than standard 750ti. This seems like such a simple and easily understood thing but apparently it is not. Bashing your heads against this wall will get you nowhere. Good day.

Why? As usual with SLI it would properly be less efficient then just having a bigger Maxwell core. Add the usual panoply of SLI driver issues, and I think I'll pass... :D

...better than no new low-voltage cards AT ALL... plus SLI tends to work quite well most of the time.

QFT

Faulty Logic:
750 Ti already has boost. Ergo, 750 Ti Boost name doesn't make sense. Ergo, it is impossible for a card to be called 750 Ti Boost. <--- Wrong

It is not impossible. Unlikely? Probably. Impossible? No.

by that logic they could call it any stupid name you can pull out of your butt. if you look at this with any common sense and logic though then you know darn well they are not going to call it a boost card if they simply raise the clockspeeds. the only card they call boost was a card they actually added boost to so imagine that. but feel free to argue all you want no matter how unrealistic and ridiculous it is that it will ever happen. :rolleyes:

So is it impossible? Literally impossible? Yes or no.
is this really what you are going with? again with that logic it could be called ANYTHING. stop trying to argue for the sake of arguing and be realistic.

That answer is neither yes nor no.

My point is precisely that it can be called anything. That it can be called anything is a different matter than if it will be called something. One is possibility. The other is probability.

So if they already added Ti to indicate it is faster than regular 750... yet they don't want to go to 755 or 760 for the next fastest card what do you think they will call it? If you are the marketing guy and your boss comes to you with those requirements you honestly think there is no chance they would look back at the previous gen and think Boost could work? :rolleyes:

Do you really not see that being a possibility? If I see a 750Ti and a 750Ti Boost Edition for sale I immediately know boost is faster... isn't that the entire point of GPU naming schemes?

do you truly have nothing better to do then to come with ridiculous ways of arguing such a silly topic?

will there even be a faster version of the 750 ti? probably not

next if they did make a faster clocked version then NO I DONT think they would call it boost WHEN IT ALREADY HAS BOOST.

get over it and move on because I am not going to ever be convinced it would be called boost if this hypothetical faster clocked 750 ti ever came out. :rolleyes:

This argument is going nowhere.
