Difference in GT, LE, GS etc.

As topic says. I basically am just wondering what the difference is in them.

Like what is best and worst and such.

They're basically arbitrary letters that the marketing dept makes up, but generally, GTX (XTX or XT with ATI) is top, GT is a little slower, GS is either faster or slower than GT depending on the alignment of the astrological signs in combination with the weather, and LE is a pretty basic budget card.

I never really thought of it much, but I'd guess some of it comes from the auto industry. A GT is a great car (in general), so a GTX has to be better... "LE" is often used to be "Limited Edition" but is often used as "Light Edition" ... just throwing that out there...
