Well it looks like the fun begins. Some alleged Titan X Benchmarks from Videocardz. It looks like a pretty beefy card if true. I wonder how soon DS will have it after the announcement is made - lol!!

Will this be a limited card?

...still not saturating the PCI-e interface with the scaling shown in the SLI set-UPS.

I'm not sure what you mean by limited card. I believe this is the 'big daddy' Maxwell card so I think this is the top card from all that I've read. There may or may not be a cut down "Ti" version of the card - probably depends on how AMD's 300 series does will determine if Nvidia does this. I'm sure there will be enough less than optimal chips coming out of the binning for the Titan that would work for a Ti version but I'm not certain Nvidia will go that route.
Definitely interesting about the scaling . I also think it showed x4 being better than x3 if I remember right also. That could be drivers perhaps. Also, Windows 10 may help with this also I guess. |

Some of their chips have been limited in the sense it seemed like there were not enough to go around.

That's the first I've heard of this. I would think it'd be like the previous Titans which were generally available. They are the top binned chips so there may be an initial shortage but I would think Nvidia would have known their release date and would have been binning chips (even as we speak). As it's all conjecture and rumor though who knows - lol.

These are still on the 28nm process node size, so yields should be very high now. If they are binning these processors, that would lend credibility to a lesser card with the GM200 chips that do not make the bin for the Titan X. I could easily believe they are taking out chips that perform at exceptionally lower power levels for a Titan Z replacement down the road.

Does the Titan logo glow white? Also does the blower fan glow green?
Do you think the 980 Ti will have a black cooler like the Titan X? I hope it is $1000 or less I need one for my Bolt II. |

No on the lighting: http://techgage.com/news/a-super-quick-look-at-nvidias-geforce-gtx-titan-x/. It's just a metalized logo they illuminated in photoshop.
Nobody except NVIDIA knows what/if/when any details on a 980 Ti. It could be similar to the GTX 980 and keep the differentiation of the Titan, or they could associate it with the Titan for the GM200 chip...no clue. |

Understood about the binning and such. That said, I'm still not convinced about a Ti version coming. The Titan always was technically made for 'professionals' with DP. This Titan is a bit different as it is looking to be more of a gaming card as the DP has been basically chucked. However, you never know and it's too bad the 390X won't be announced until June. I'd like to see the two of these go head to head before I buy but I can't wait until June...

Hah bprat - I've already been waiting 1.5 years now technically. Once I see what the Titan X offers (which hopefully be this upcoming week), I'm pulling the trigger. Got my tax money and my bonus money. If the Titan X delivers (and it looks like it may), trigger will be pulled once it gets into the configurator. Of course, I'll run the build by everyone in the forums as a final 'go'. So keep your eyes peeled!!

Consider the eyes peeled.
Once it ships, we have a bottle of champagne to launch it with. |

Dax... just saw a confirmation of DirectX 12 will be able to mix AMD and Nvidia cards in sli. So, Titan X now and add a 390X later.

If you kept the components running at stock, you could get away with a 750W PSU for a Titan X and 390X with a Haswell-E processor.
I'm interested if DX12 will also utilize the iGPU on the Intel processors better, too. Also curious about the levels of compatibility with Vulkan for existing GPUs. |

Actually I'm really curious how Microsoft is going to get that to work. I guess I can see maybe if the card has the same architecture is the other cards but NVIDIA and AMD's cards process much differently. So I would think that would make things really tricky. That said, I like the idea of the stacked VRAM across the cards. Also, the cool thing is though you can use some of the your older video cards with a newly bought card to upgrade your performance even more I guess.
