Titan Z announced - where are the reviews?

[Keysplayr]

Lol, are people THAT naive to think you need a Titan grade GPU to be a CUDA developer?

Please, stop trying to justify this product, it makes you look silly. Titan Z is irrelevant for anyone and this includes:

- CUDA developers (they can develop with any kind of CUDA enabled GPU, be it Geforce or Quadro)
- People that need good GPGPU on a budget (they are far better of with 2 Titan Black's)
- Gamers (paying double the price for less performance than a 295x2? Jesus christ)

Heck, it is not even worth's the reviewer's time and money to even review it. Cant anyone see that?? Even JHH admitted this is a product for the most desperate NV fanboys, for anyone else is a hell of a laughable product.

You're funny.

Titan Black and Titan Z were silent launches!

Cuda with double precision

The CEO comments at launch at GTC:

A summary:

"What we have learned it appears researchers are using this for doing Cuda research, where there is maybe machine learning, developing software on it. And the reason for that is this is a supercomputer you can buy in retail.

We see a lot of researchers using this product and we see a lot of design and artists using this product. Finally, the vast majority of Adobe's Creative Suite is accelerated by GPU and if you're editing or making a 4k video, making a commercial, making a home movie, using a GPU in your system, really, really changes the way, the type of things you can do."


Higher price, imho:

To balance their pricing so not to cannibalize their other double precision sku's.

No.It was touted as a gaming card first http://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2014/03/25/titan-z/

You're funny.

No.

Nothing in ViRGE's post indicates that he has forgotten anything.

There's nothing there that justifies the titan-z over titan blacks though either.

And yet there is still nothing in any of that logic that says why a Titan Z is a better purchase than a pair of Titan Blacks. The Titan concept itself has a niche- "cheap" DP without pro drivers, filling the gap between Geforce and Quadro. Nobody disputes that. But the Titan Z is an overpriced, underperforming disaster. No-one in their right mind would get that, instead of just two Titan Blacks.

Yawn, yet another AT forum thread completely overrun by AMD vs NV fans bickering at each other.

Who, in any state of mind, would spend this much on a card with no ECC???

I've always wondered how many of these people are on AMD's or NVidia'a payrolls.

Thanks, everyone, for ruining another thread here.
