Nvidia has been teasing its upcoming GeForce GPUs for months now. The graphics card maker just officially unveiled its Turing GPU architecture today, and it looks like the first gaming-focused GeForce GPUs will be unveiled next week. Nvidia previously teased “spectacular surprises” for its GeForce event at Gamescom next week, and now the company has unveiled a teaser video that includes even more clues.

The teaser video ends with flashes of a graphics card with a new cooler, backplate design, and shroud design. While it’s clear Nvidia is teasing an all-new GPU, the video also includes some hints at the naming. Reddit users were quick to spot (via Wccftech) that a number of Discord usernames seem to point towards an RTX 2080 name. Usernames like RoyTeX (RTX), Not_11, Mac-20, and Eight Tee all seem to spell out RTX 2080, a potential name for the new Nvidia card. There are even GPS coordinates for Cologne in the Discord messages, and Nvidia unveils the date for its GeForce event by making the “2080” numbers rise up in order at the very end of the teaser.
