Right...those were 90 nm back in the day, down to 55nm today in gts250s. They obviously did some improvements as they couldn't re-badge and re-sell a 6 year old card 3 times lol.
However they are great cards. Even today, 2 of gts250s in SLI will smoke any DX10 game in highest detail...other than crysis and possibly Metro 2033
