Question about video cards...NVidia in Particular?
I've been doing some reading and have found that 200 series cards are re-branded 9x series cards.
Can someone point me to a website with a comparison of the two so I can read up on them?
Update:No one has answered my question.
Example (this isn't true, just making it up) the GeForce200 is the same as the GeForce 9500 gt. That's the info I am looking for. Anyone know where I can find that information at?

Wow that's a lot of answers with no answer.
I am not sure of a site about it... http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3523
There are random rebading of cards, like the 8800 GT to the 9800 GT and the 9800 GTX+ to the GTS 250, I imagine we will see more in the future from the 2xx series to 3xx.
Sometimes it's a rebranding, sometimes its a hardware change. The 512mb GTS 250 was a rebrand, but the 1gb GTS 250 has a smaller motherboard with a smaller die.
What you heard is basically true. NVidia has been getting a lot of mileage out of reworking the G92 core for quite some time now. It first came to market in the GeForce 8800GT.
NVidia keeps finding ways to improve on the core and release a stream of steadily improving video cards.
Working from an existing architecture helps them keep costs down, too boot.
I even have 2 computers i run spore with. One is a computer with 512 megabytes of RAM and the elementary pictures card that it comes with. the different is a particularly new workstation with a million gig of RAM, it additionally has a elementary pictures card. spore runs extra suitable on the laptop, yet runs okay on the two. i think of you will prefer an worry-free time working it
