These cards do not feature the longstanding Quadro and Tesla branding, as with the launch of these products, those brands have been discontinued, replaced with NVIDIA RTX Axx and NVIDIA Axx. The ‘RTX Axx’ series cards will replace Quadro workstation graphics cards. Meanwhile, the ‘Axx’ series succeeds the Tesla series.
