Article is based on pure speculation, no naming sheme for the new generation has been confirmed. Should not have been created without having some basic facts Denniss (talk) 10:50, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article should indeed not have been created without a citation for the name of the GPU family. Note that there are citations, though. These are primarily around the name of the microarchitecture (Pascal), mind you. It's also worth noting that the product family will be released later this year. In any case, I withhold my vote. --Yamla (talk) 12:57, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: WP:TOOSOON. None of the references mention a 1000 series, which suggests speculation on the part of the author. I understand that what the author wanted was an article about the next generation GeForce series, but couldn't call it "Forthcoming next generation GeForce series product", and decided to name it. But:
    • the lack of a name — even a codename — is a strong indication that the product is not so far into the planning phase as to have gelled, and
    • the lack of references provided by anyone other than Nvidia indicate that at this point the only information available is promotional, and doesn't speak to notability.
With a made-up name, how are people even expected to find this article? ubiquity (talk) 14:06, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
