I didn't get one *cries*

What a strange thing to do. Really, truly odd.

"it is as close to proof as we are ever going to get that Nvidia has been holding back their Titan series GPUs." I thought this before I read it!

They have to really. It's a very foolish company who release everything they have unless they are miles behind like AMD. You always keep something in the reserve tank in case the need arrives, and Nvidia are in a position to do just that really.

I blame AMD for this, for being so slow to release anything, and I blame the Titan owners for buying them in the first place. it, blame EVERYBODY for everything!!

Seriously though, if you could paint stick figure and sell them for €1000 a pop, would you even bother painting a masterpiece? No, not until the guy next door starts doing it..

Nvidia is just demonstrating power. It is sad, that customers are seriously crippled buy this. You pay insane money, you expect product to perform at it's best... But Nvidia just couldn't be bothered. That is sad...

Greedy Bastards... Been saying it a looooong time and this just adds proof to my reasoning of despising Nvidia as a company

Probably only the 1080ti. Based off the same chip whereas the lower end ones are slightly different.

Titan X Pascal 12GB GDDR5

Is it good to buy Titan X Pascal at Half price of GTX 1080 Ti ?
And now? Aug 2017?

The reason for asking is I am getting a good deal for brand new piece of 2016.

I don't quite understand what you are saying. Of course it's worth buying a Titan XP for half the price of a 1080Ti. However, do you mean double the price? if that's what you mean then no, absolutely not.

Only buy Titan cards at the full asking rate on the day of release for a new tech. So for example, buying a Volta Titan card on launch day is not the worst thing you can do.

Paying £1200 for one now though? yeah, you would want your head examined.
