GeForce Titan coming end of February

[railven]

That said, I agree that this card should be priced at $800 to differentiate it from the 690.

Irony, look it up, you is now one of them hater's you kept complaining about.

 

[JM Popaleetus]

It's pathetic to ignore the price!

Okay then.

I'll let ya'll spend the next 100pages of this thread arguing over the price rather than having any meaningful discussion. Just like every other nVidia launch thread on Anandtech.

 

[railven]

Halo product will always have outlandish price, but with the leaks the price isn't jiving for me.

I do hope it is faster than a GTX 690 if it's going to cost as much as one. SLI issues aside, woof, that is a big pill to swallow.

Glad this isn't my buying bracket!

Well this is even more ironic, I remember the HD 7970 thread turning into a ball of fire over the price. History, it does repeat itself!

So what can we (as gamers) talk about? There aren't any official benches, yet. I don't know how stable the monitor OC feature is, and frankly I'm not sure I'd risk even my dinky $400 Korean-something for 20hz more.

Price to perf, woof, this thing is insane! Ummm.. Price to watt, woof insane. Ummm...look at all them transistors, I can't even count them in one sittting, they are AWESOME!

... Disgusting not to mention when did the 680 start getting 70ish fps in skyrim at 2560 4x msaa ?

Really? I mean REALLY? We don't know what scenes were benched in all those games that don't have integrated benchmarks (and even with those we don't know if TPU or Nvidia used them). To compare numbers across different reviews never worked.

Allow the market to decide and choice, premium choice is always welcomed!

More power to ya if you desire to strongly defend premiums though!

OK, Yoda. Not whining about the price, and not calling it a turd in a dozen posts, does not mean the opposite , approval of the launch price. It is , what it is.
We see,going out of business, bankruptcy sales on AMD cards all the time now($550-580 7970 launch), we may see that with Titan's pricing. If the card has no market.

Gotta agree with box here, let's wait for the official reviews before we start comparing benchmark numbers.

imho,

Price discussion is important and meaningful and part of the total or big picture.

You mean all the benches made with the 304.79 Beta driver on a different hardware setup?

If we had actual reviews you could blast me all you'd like but these are the only things we can work with sooo I'm doing what I can to find out titan's relative performance against other existing cards and maybe justify it's exorbitant price tag

 

[badb0y]

What percentage of people posting in this thread do you suppose will actually be getting at least one of these cards?

<1%

 

[AdamK47]

Anyone know how I can connect a 3rd GTX 690 so that I can enable 6-Way SLI?

It's impossibru.

That's precious!

What the heck are you talking about? I mean we don't know what was benched. For instance in Skyrim fps can range from lets say 50 to 150 depending on the scene. Indoor, outdoor, forest, plains, battle scene with spell effects, just looking around etc. Same goes for basically every game, the variance is very very large.

I'm not sure if Titan will be successful or not but It is the most talked about card in ATF's history, well that's something at least

He is agreeing with you ^^
Read again, and include the irony glasses

My bad, sorry

Not unless AMD comes out with a Radeon Zeus! You know, the Titan slayer

Actually, at this point I'd be happy just to see a successor to the HD 7k series out of them haha.

Internal benchs for Nvidia in 2560X1600 AAx4.

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-titan/performance

This chart must have been mistakenly put up on the website (as performance data is not supposed to be shown until Thur Feb 21), and is now removed.

Here is the approximate performance increase for Geforce Titan vs. GTX 680 based on the chart above (2560x1600, 4xMSAA, 16xAF, Maximum Game Settings):

Metro 2033: +65%
Crysis 3: +44%
The Witcher 2: +33%
Max Payne 3: +44%
Crysis 2: +52%
Shogun 2: +46%
Assassin's Creed III: +38%
Borderlands 2: +33%
Lost Planet 2: +31%
Sleeping Dogs: +49%
Battlefield 3: +46%
Deus Ex: Human Revolution: +52%
Dirt 3: +42%
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: +44%
Call of Duty: Blacks Ops II: +41%
Batman: Arkham City: +36%
StarCraft II: +58%

Average performance increase: +44%

perhaps we should look at this more like some "extreme" CPU from Intel (although Intel normally offers almost the same thing for a lot less),
in terms of price/perf it's bad, but pure performance for a single GPU looks good, also even performance per watt is looking quite nice... as much as cheaper dual GPU solutions might get the same framerate in many cases, it just not the same, single GPU performance is more consistent, less problematic, and... harder to improve, I guess that's where the prices come from,

but yes, it's a little disappointing for the price and performance, and the whole GF110 to GK104 thing...
I would certainly choose this car over a dual GPU solution for the same price,

And it seems like review samples are hitting 1100Mhz+ on the core, very respectable performance increase from the GTX 680.

Amen to that

Boy, I remember this thread when it was only 5 pages long.
