Value is dependent on performance and price to performance. The Titan is £999. Some of the Tis are that much

That horrid piece of cack is nine hundred sheets.
The Titan Xp costs around 10% more. It will give you about that in performance.
When you start dropping down you see things like this.

And when you add up the price to performance? the Titan probably offers better bang for the buck.
Yes, it's a lot of money is a grand. But if you have any self control at all or are just as disgusted at current GPU prices it wouldn't take you that long to save up and buy the card worth having. Most notably because it is the fastest card out there and you will not catch one with a 1080Ti. I've yet to see a 1080Ti topple my Titan XP tbh.
However this whole thing stinks and believe me is absolutely killing PC gaming stone dead. If you bought a card prior to the Radeon 580 launch you could still hang in there and play. But the cost of even entry level rubbish is so high now that I would need to be bloody high to recommend it to any of my mates.
"Yeah mate, just grab a Ryzen 1200, kick in the b******s RAM and sacrifice a kidney for a GPU !".
You are looking at nearly a thousand pounds now for a rig that should cost you £500, tops. No console costs £500. Nvidia and AMD and memory manufacturers are doing a bloody good job of keeping consoles in business. I heard that because of dropped sales etc M$ and Sony were only going to make one model of console now and sell it as a more powerful unit. That part came to fruition, however, neither would even so much as have a foothold if PC gaming wasn't arse r**e expensive now.
I have magazines from 2009 and back then you could buy an I3 Clarkdale for about £90 (which was more than enough for any game) a GTX 460 for about £130 and you were bloody laughing. You could play anything. Any game you wanted.
Now? haha.
