GTX Titan X Performance?

[Doomslayer]

My money is on the $1000 mark or at least same price (excluding inflation) as the last ultimate flagship.

The thing is when the Titan Z came out i know its a Dual GPU card but that was like $3200 or more in Australia i can't remember now

you cant include that. Not even Spock (R.I.P) could see the logic in pricing there. Besides, those are now priced at $2100 which is more realistic

I just did a google search here for the Titan Z and 1 place still has them and there charging $3499.00 to $3899.00

It's quite shocking how the prices work in different countries :lol:

Here in Spain they charge 1109.95 Euros for a Titan Z.

And onto the topic of the Titan X, its nice that they did it a single slot as for a waterblock on it would be just awsome! All though I am eagerly waiting for the AMD version of the top Tier cards.

 

[NeverBackDown]

I don't care what GPU it is.. anything over $750 for one card is worthless. That's just absurd and not worth the money whatsoever..

I'm waiting till AMD releases their full new lineup to make a choice on which side to go to.. Just looking for best performance for a solid price.

I don't see why U guys hate NV's "original Titan move"...
It's not a question about If there will be a card faster than Titan X.
It's not even about when it will come.
Question IS : Will U be able to afford it ?
Just don't worry : If U still won't be able to buy it then, U just have to wait longer (it's not THAT hard).

Original Titan users got GTX 780 Ti performance level (Titan after OC = GTX 780 Ti), in February 2013.
"Other guys" (like me), got it in November 2013 or early 2014 (paying ~60% of the original price with limited DP and 3GBs of VRAM less).

True GTX Titan Black could made Titan users look truly stupid, but... THEY KNOW what specs it's got when they bought it (to me it was obvious there will be "unlocked" version eventually).
I gambled tho, if AMD will get it's Performance/$ crown back for a bit (to force "NV's hand").

But back to NV "bad Titan move" :
Well U got Your performance 10 whole month's BEORE everyone else.
So... is getting that top performance earlier is worth to U 400$ (in short : 10 months later = ~400$ less) ?

PS. In the end i think, GTX Titan will out run GTX 780[Ti] longevity.
It's got 6GB of VRAM, and games started to use it (only recently).

The Titan was released in february 2013, while the 780 in may. So, 3 months.

True, and buying that card (GTX 780) with it's full premium price in may was even more stupid than buying Titan for 1k$ (in retrospect) - but that's besides the point.

My point is : GTX 780 (out of the box) is slower than Titan - ie. U need to OC it, to get even close to Titan (and that's not counting in 3GB of VRAM more on T.).
+ Everyone knew from the start that GTX 780 is just a lowest grade GK110, right ?

So... WHY would ANYONE aiming for top notch performance of Titan bought (or settled for) 780 ?
GTX 570/670 users were really that desperate for more performance ?
First card that beat Titan in most tests was 780 Ti in November of 2013, that's my reasoning behind 10 months earlier (out of box) performance.

PS. And i know - it should be around 9 months, not 10

Just read that the Titan X is going to cost $1000.

$1000 = £678

So 678:5*6 (20% VAT) = £813,60

So probably it'll be priced somewhere between 800 and 900 quid.

I can afford it. I personally don't like Titans as they're pretty much the definition of what Nvidia do wrong. Sure they are fast, but not fast enough to warrant the cost. The vast majority of people who buy Titans seem to buy one (which is pointless as you're never going to use that vram with one card) and then don't use it properly. Why? because they're very well marketed to captain idiot prebuilt.

Don't get me started on their apparent 'compute' capabilities. The X has the same double-precision floating point performance as the 780Ti. Its a benchmark card/ cash grab card by Nvidia.

Excluding buying 4 of them, which is about £4k, I don't see why people get them.

 

[Warchild]

I'll be looking at around 13,000NoK for those bad boys if i was daft enough to get one.

I'll wait for the 980Ti, or the next series GPUs. My 780s are still plodding along happily.

:lol: you forgot to add the +50% screw over the UK consumer just coz we can government TAX.

 

[Doomslayer]

I still say this card with be worth $1500-2000 here

 

[DarthDudo]

I dont think it will release anywhere near the 999$ price tag quoted by NVIDIA, but we will see, also some people are claiming yields are low with a die this size thus justifying the increase in cost yet it is only marginally bigger than a 580 (GTX580 520 mm² v TitanX 561 mm²) also still 20nm which is a matured manufacturing process (also supposedly cheaper to manufacture than the 40nm of the GTX 580) so where is the justification in cost?Is 12GB VRAM that expensive?I dont think so it, after the success of the Titan followed by people raging and "upgrading" to 780ti's I firmly believe they will follow the same plan for this generation, they release TitanX followed by AMD with there 390x which is met with 980ti etc etc why wouldn't they, people are eating these GPU's up, must be a great time for the shareholders at NV

This is also not like the previous Titan, being a workstation orientated card with compute performance, this is clearly aimed at consumers and at gamers at that, it will only continue too, its becoming clear I think, NV has done the same tactic this generation as the previous, selling there x60 range as x70 and x70 as x80 at least thats what I believe based on their performance relative to their respective ranges of previous generations.


Also I am not saying everything should be cheaper that the last gen etc etc I realize the cost of R&D, Marketing, Logistics etc however this kind of price gouging simply because they can is absolutely abysmal for end users and small business, unfortunately the only way for it to end is with the consumer, and with the thread here any many more like it all around the web, the consumer is getting the ready to drink it up.

Consumerism, Conformity and Uncritical Thinking.

EDIT: On pre-order at Overclockers from 870GBP

Review: Nvidia GeForce GTX Titan X 12GB

The guy's over at Hexus have reviewed the beast. Mightily impressive numbers.
One thing I did note is the rather low Double-Precision but I guess if that was important to you then you would be more interested in Tesla or Quadro etc.
At stock it beats all other single GPU cards, even more so with a decent over-clock.
Another thing I found interesting was the 4K Frame Render consistency in the game tests, a big boast over all the other cards tested.

I know Tom has just done his 'Overkill 980 quad SLi' video, it would be very interesting to see another 'Overkill' video with 4 of these........

The GeForce GTX Titan X graphics card will be on pre-order from selected retailers from 2pm Wednesday, March 18.

For the full review head on over to-http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphics/81679-nvidia-geforce-gtx-titan-x-12gb/

 

[Warchild]

Hilbert of Guru3D has also done a review of this, albeit more technical and claims that this card at stock has a 30% increase over the 980 for 1080p gaming, 40% increase for 3k and 4k gaming.

They were reporting 40-50fps for games in 4K which for a single GPU is pretty damn sweet.

It's not about performance/price with this types of cards.
It's all about one question :
IS that kind of PERFORMANCE level, worth THAT much to U, months or just weeks BEFORE any "normal card" (ie. 500-300$) will deliver.
Basicly : U are buying time here - nothing more, and nothing less.

People can buy stuff and do anything with it (if they hurt themselves with it, it's their fault - U get Manual to everything these days [usually ]).
Besides : U can buy Rampage V MB, and never ever Dry Iced it or use LN with it.
Is that not using it properly, and U should have bought something cheaper ?

Pre-Orders are up at Scan, prices starting at £879.74.

Not as bad as I first thought but still higher than I was hoping for, so I may have to get one and then get the other in a couple of months but will have to wait for SLI reviews to come out.
