Whilst both cards are being marketed there will be a lot of confused punters buying the 640MB card, thinking it's faster. Nuts!!

In many stores (like NewEgg) the new 8800 GTS 512 MB is called the 8800 GTS G92. It is incredibly confusing for consumers though. But the entire videocard industry is that way...cards like the 8600 GT with 512 MB of ram cost more than the 8800 GT even though the 8800 GT blows them out of the water.
