Updated: Snapshot of new notebook chip names

One of our readers dropped us a note that Nvidia itself has decided to leak some information about its upcoming Geforce 3xxM notebook series.


This is something that hasn’t been announced yet and might very well be the branding for Fermi GT300 based mobile chips, but at this time we don’t know.

The top brand is Geforce GTS 360M followed by Geforce GT 335M and Geforce GT 330M. The lower market segment will get Geforce 310M as well as Geforce 305M.

We managed to capture a screen shot before it was too late as its already gone from the site. Thanks for the great tip, but the driver linked with these brands was unfortunately not leaked, so we didn't get our hands on it.

hopefully this means a release is imminent!

Sounds like great news but at the same time it's absolutely weird...

I mean... still there's some debates going around about the tessellator, the faked gaming results, NVIDIA not giving any light into any subject at all... and now we find this, NVIDIA wiping out the evidence... why? I mean... why?

But... from the other hand... hell, yeah! Would be great if they finally release the card, although the same concern remains into my head... are they releasing the GPU on A1 silicon? or... are they doing all works in the dark?

Smells very very very fishy (although I'm willing for it to release as soon as they can) :zombie:

Looks like Fudzilla is short on news so they make some. I do remember some posts about them mobile drivers so I Googled "GTS 360M" and there are many pages of links about it.

Some speculation that they are rebranded GTX 200 parts for mobile. Not sure about that. No time to read so many links.

The fact is the parts were already in NVIDIA driver v186.78 dated 15 July 2009 if not sooner. LINK (http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/24997-v18678-windows-7vista-64bit-nvidia/)

Even Fudzilla reported about it 07 September 2009 LINK (http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/15388/34/)

Could make a certain sense but if that's right... why the sudden disappearance?

BTW... even the NVIDIA UK driver selector has wiped out the 300 series from the list...

So... it's still an open question... why?

it looks like this was an accident. I guess the guys running the website made a mistake putting these entries up too early, and it was taken down when they realized their mistake (probably after an angry call from Nvidia corporate HQ)
