Ti4200: the Missing Member of GeForce4 Clan. [02/22/2002 05:21 PM]

As I read over here, NVIDIA was initially planning to introduce not 5 chips in its desktop GeForce4 family (see this news story), but six. The missing one is GeForce4 Ti4200, which launching NVIDIA slightly postponed because of the extremely high popularity of the previous generation GeForce3 Ti500 solution.

The thing is that GeForce4 Ti4200 based graphics cards (which working frequencies will equal to 250MHz core and 500MHz memory) should occupy the price niche currently possessed by GeForce3 Ti500. However, why should they do it now when the good old GeForce3 Ti500 are selling more than greatly? Especially since the launching of RV250 from ATI is also coming soon (it should happen some time in March)...

Well, NVIDIA decided to keep the sixth solution until better times: they will have something to respond to the competitor’s new product launch and will manage to sell more of the previous generation chips in the meanwhile. A very clever move, I should say. :)
