Today, NVIDIA launches their $1200 US, Titan X graphics card aiming the enthusiast and professional market. Do not mistake this card with last year's GeForce GTX Titan X which featured the Maxwell GPU as the latest Titan X adopts the Pascal GPU architecture. Already having the fastest gaming product in the market, the Titan X would further strengthen NVIDIA's lead in the high-end GPU sector.

NVIDIA Titan X has been launched, the fastest Pascal graphics card now available at $1200 US.

NVIDIA Titan X Unleashed - Features Brand New Pascal GP102 GPU With 12 GB G5X Memory and 11 TFLOPs of Compute Crunching Power

The NVIDIA Titan X is one of many things, NVIDIA calls it the ultimate graphics card but it's not just any Ultimate graphics card. The Titan X is the fastest gaming card available, its the fastest deep learning card and its also the fastest professional card available at its price. The NVIDIA Titan series is mostly branded as a prosumer series as they are targeted at consumers and professionals. This is one of the reasons NVIDIA has dropped the GeForce GTX branding from the Titan X.

Recently, AMD had also announced their own take at the prosumer market with the Radeon Pro Duo, a dual Fiji based, $1500 US solution. While Pro Duo is meant for enthusiast gamers and content creators, the NVIDIA Titan X aims the enthusiast gaming, deep learning and professional content creation markets. The latest Pascal chip significantly helps deep learning instructions throughput with its multiple TFLOPs of compute processing power.

NVIDIA Titan X Specifications in Detail - The First GP102 Card

The Pascal GP102 GPU features 12 Billion transistors, a massive increase over 7.2 Billion transistors on GP104 and lower than the 15.4 Billion transistors on GP100 die. The chip housing a lower transistor count comes with a smaller die size of 471mm2 compared to 610mm2 on the GP100 die. The GP102 rids of the dual precision FP 64 hardware featured on the GP100.The GPU does get the same 3584 CUDA cores as featured on the NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPU which are clocked1.41 GHz core and 1.53 GHz boost clocks.

NVIDIA Titan X Graphics Card Official

The compute numbers of these cards are a leap beyond what we have seen on any consumer card with the GPU touching 11 TFLOPs of single precision and 44 TOPs INT8 calculations (new deep learning instructions). NVIDIA's GP104 GPU comes very close to the Titan X with its 9 TFLOPs of compute power and around 10 TFLOPs with OC. The Titan X is said to boost around 1.8 GHz in majority of workloads so 12 TFLOPs on this card wouldn't be hard to hit at stock configs.

NVIDIA Titan X Launch

TheNVIDIA Titan Xfeatures12 GB of GDDR5X which is clocked at 10 GB/s and delivers 480 GB/s which is just about the same amount that HBM1 delivered (512 GB/s). We can see that HBM2 is still not that widely available for use in consumer grade cards but GDDR5X can cover it up with enough bandwidth to feed the GPU. NVIDIA is using G5X memory on all of their GP102 GPUs with the Quadro P6000 featuring up to 24 GB G5X memory. The Tesla P100 on the other hand houses 16 GB of HBM2 memory.

NVIDIA Titan X PCB - Premium Components and Design For Fastest Pascal GPU

The NVIDIA Titan X PCB has the highest quality components with 7+1 Phase Dual-FET design that deliver unprecedented power to the GPU core. The GP102 GPU is surrounded by 12 GDDR5X memory chips that deliver 480 GB/s bandwidth. The side of the card has two SLI-HB gold fingers that allow up to Quad-Way interface.
