    Explains the recently leaked GTX970 with GALAX written on it, some people thought it was fake but clearly not.

    So basically Galaxy created the KFA2 brand for the European market and now they are "merging it" with the original Galaxy brand by changing it to GALAX. Seems like an awful waste of time and money if you ask me; KFA2 is finally an established brand, and now then they pull the rug out from under it.

    Why they just didn't stick to Galaxy from the start in Europe is beyond me. Makes you wonder if the people running these companies really understand how branding and marketing works in the real world.

    PS. Slight spelling mistake with the disclaimer at the bottom. (Opionions) ;)

    I originally thought GALAX was a type-o missing the Y on the end. This seems stupid to me.

    GALAX just doesn't flow either. It sounds stupid.

    GALAX also sounds like some sort of... well... laxative.

    Does seem a bit daft to have dropped the brand name that was established.

    lol, I'd be very surprised if that was the reason, but you never know.

    Yup, KFA2 doesn't exactly roll of the tongue but it is a well known brand now and "GALAX" isn't an improvement by any stretch of the imagination.
