Titan X announced, 12GB framebuffer, 8 billion transistors.
- Thread starter Dictator93
- Start date
This makes sense now.
Guess I'll need to reinstall them and play them again at some point now that I have a 750ti ftw
Always happy to help.
If you want good videos showcasing Physx :

I won't guarantee you you will get 60fps with Physx in Batman AC / AO. This is demanding.
The next Batman will also have advanced GPU Physx on PC.
I'd guess that it would be launched at GTC which starts on the 17th. Whether it will be a hard launch or soft launch, who knows.

What happens with FC4 - does it just not improve performance or is glitchy?

what is going to touch the Titan in 2015?
I can't imagine the 390x will, Maybe if NVIDIA decides to do a GTX990?
Don't be surprised if the 390x comes close.
The 390x definitely has a good chance of being within a few percent of Titan X for most sane game settings. The 290x traded blows with the Titan and Titan Black.
I think the chances are good it'll come close at half the price. The 290x came close to the original Titan, actually ended up faster in some games.
It may not be as efficient though, but personally whether a card is drawing 200w or 300w it doesn't matter that much to me.

Im in the same boat, dont care about power consumption, if titan X consumes 200W but costs 1000€ and 390x costs 500€ but consumes 350W with similar performance i will choose a 390x without a doubt.
I think the story will be similar to titan vs 290x, nvidia will release the 1080 line (or whatever it will be called) after the 390x if the perfomance is similar, i bet that the 1080ti will be a 6GB Full GM200 and the normal 1080 a cut down GM200 (watch out for the memory configuration if the 970 is anything to go by)

Did he just say that the Titan X is the first GPU to match the PS4s GPU!???

Are talking *strictly* in terms of the amount of VRAM?

I've got a system that has an AMD FX 6300 CPU with 32GB of RAM. Sure my new i7 4790K setup is nice and all but it only has 16GB of RAM. Clearly my original PC is superior. You can't argue with math.
EDIT: Oh god. Thanks Horse Armour for creating all this confusion.
I'm sorry but 6300 > 4790. No idea why you downgraded so much, consoles can get away with lesser hardware because they're made of adamantium on which devs can code (the famous "coding to the metal").
PC parts, much to the dismay of many, are made of silicon which is not as strong of a material.
Hence the disparity in efficiency between consoles and PCs. On paper the Titan X is superior because of its 12gb but in practice ? Not so much.

Wtf Am I reading!
What? At 1200MHz it's almost 2 times more powerful than a 970? That's pretty impressive for a single-GPU!

How quickly are we anticipating a 970 refresh with 8 gigs of ram?
Doubtful
I don't think that's likely to happen.
We'll probably see a GTX 1080 with 6 gigs tho.
with 3.5GB of fast ram and 4.5GB of slow ram ?
Poor trolling? you just planted and idea on someone lol
BRAMMMMMMM!! BRAMMMMM!
This thing would be pretty tempting at a grand, the 980 kingpin is only $200 less at $800 and the titans seem to hold value comparatively better. I'm assuming Nvidia won't let their partners play with the Titan board again outside of waterblocks and some factory oc's?
Don't see it happening unless AMD causes an impact somehow, otherwise September at the earliest for a 1080 non reference card is probably a safe bet.

32% improvement on avg in a 22 game test run at 1440p max settings.

If these are real, the fact that it outperforms the Titan Z by some degree is pretty impressive to me. I am going to take these benchmarks with a grain a salt however until we get something concrete from reliable sources.

i suspect these benches are real. card releases in a week.

It's like one week away from when we'll probably get the full announcement + release, so we won't have to wait long.
-no custom PCBs
-no backplate
-reference, blower-style cooler and heatsink (no matter how good it is for that category, still decisively inferior on air in a spacious case vs some triple-slot, Lightning-esque design)
-locked voltage
-6+8 pin power connectors only
-potentially-stagnant/crippled FP64 performance
-$1000-1350
-will be beat out or matched in all of the above and roughly matched in end-performance by much cheaper "GTX 1080"s and/or the R9 390X within months
People on tech forums:
"I'LL TAKE 3, PRETEND I CARE ABOUT VRAM, AND REPLACE THEM WITH 8GB MID-RANGE PASCAL CHIPS IN A YEAR ANYWAY!!!!"

Yeah- the real news here (for me, at least) is the impending arrival of a ~6GB 980Ti/GTX1080 card in the $650-$700 range with aftermarket boards/cooling. Going to have to hop on board that train when it arrives.

Same here, I wouldn't even buy the Titan X over such a card if they were the same price and the 6GB card's chip isn't too heavily-crippled (anything like the 970's memory problem and I'm out).
I really don't get the appeal; the card and its build quality/power delivery/cooling as a whole aren't even great at all.
The Titan Black's voltage was locked. I expect the same here. That, and the no custom PCB rule with that meager power-delivery system don't leave much room for interpretation. Even for $1000+, Nvidia are still crippling it.
The FP64 thing is still a rumor, but it makes sense given TDP and transistor limitations. Especially given that Nvidia recently released the Tesla K80 with a respun GK210 rather than GM200.
For $999 US dollars I might, but the rumoured $1,350 would turn into about $2,000 Canadian after taxes which sounds ridiculous. That is, until I get used to the idea of paying that much for a graphics card. We'll see!

Yikes, you know, for 1000 bucks I would expect stuff like unlocked voltage and FP64 performance.
I wonder if Nvidia is just clouding up its (reasonable) price ratio by putting on so much VRAM. IMO, if it really does have the stuff you say it does, it is legitimately an even worse deal than the original titan...

im actually hoping for this one

So they price it cheaper? That would be a surprise.
