If this is true, this means that in September the gap between AMD and Nvidia will be the largest ever?
The target is at least 50% higher performance than GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition, and our sources are saying theyre now bound by the CPU. Even Core i7-6950X isnt enough to feed all the cards and in a lot of scenarios you could see an Intel Core i7-6700K, with its supreme clock (4.0 vs. 3.0 GHz) easily feed the GP100 more efficiently than Broadwell-E based Core i7 Extreme Edition. The running joke inside Nvidia is dont buy the 6950X buy 6700K and a Titan but were not sure that Nvidia will use this for an official tagline. Truth to be told, they might be right we need Intel to return to the 4-core next-gen mainstream/enthusiast and then X-core big-daddy part using the same architecture, rather than the current cadence which makes sense only if youre working for Intel. AMDs 8-core ZEN cannot come soon enough.
If all things go well, Nvidia should unveil GeForce GTX Titan P on Gamescom in Cologne, Germany August 17-21, 2016.
GP102 in-between Titan P & 1080? Not much room there to slot in. If GP102 exists, with low FP64, it will be outright faster than Titan P.
There's a 0% chance that Titan P is GP100 if it's coming out this fast, as GP100 won't be anywhere close to market saturation for the HPC (Tesla) and Workstation (Quadro) markets by that time.
It would be completely illogical for them to do that.
It's either GP102 or it's not actually coming out that soon.
I think the titan will be gp102.
gp100 has the half and double precision features, but that's not going to help much in games.
With the GTX 1080 already occupying the price slot meant for the Titan P, get ready for a quad-digit price tag.
It's called the Titan P, because that's what you do in your pants when you see the price.
Yes, I assume gp102 will be a 1080 +50%, like they did with maxwell.but it also has ~50% more shaders. I guess they could make a 430-450mm GP102 with around the same amount of shaders. The other thing agsint GP100 selling as a GPU is it has a lot of wasted die space with all the PCI-E interfaces.
Doubt it will actually launch.
I'm expecting to see Jen-Hsun Huang up there with a HBM2 filled board asking the crowd "did we not promise you the power of ten?" and proceeding to drop a $10,000 price tag, The Price is Right style. Confetti everywhere. No way the card launches Q3, maybe Q4.
If Titan P is based on GP100, I would be stunned.
