When Nvidia posted a teaser video for its Aug. 20 Gamescom event, fans eagerly awaiting the company's next-generation flagship gaming graphics processor deconstructed it frame-by-frame. They delivered the verdict that the next high-end GeForce GPU will be named the RTX 2080, not the GTX 1180 as rumored.

The deciphered hints come from a messaging thread running throughout the video, with user names like "RoyTex," "AlanaT," "Eight Tee" and "Mac-20" presumably referring to "RTX," Alan Turing and a 2080. Cryptic numerals turned out to be the coordinates of Schanzenstraße 26, 51063, Cologne, Germany -- Gamescom takes place in Cologne. Both Reddit and Twitter commenters jumped on it.
