It seems to me that this is just confusion resulting from the fact that NVIDIA has abandoned the naming parity between code-names and retail names. For example, the new GeForce 8800GT is based on the G92 architecture, rather than the G80. The G92 is actually just an incremental upgrade, not a completely new architecture; hence, it's still an 8 series card, not a 9 series. Of course I could be wrong about all of this, so don't hold me to it :)
I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard supported this. After all, once you get someone paying $15/month for the game, you ideally want them to play just enough to keep paying, but not so much that you have to pay for more servers :)
