TPU: Titan II Specs

Looks good to me. I wonder if they will drop it before the end of the year... Ill wait until I see the 4k benchmarks and then probably buy if it performs well enough...
 
And it'll probably be available for the low, low price of $1,000 to $1,500 if the specs themselves aren't a hoax.

All based on an anonymous entry on sisoftware like the Fiji. And equally supisious.

I wonder how they came up with the 551mm2 number or the Titan II part. It could for the sake of it just be a GTX990.

Isn't the number of cuda cores a little low for a dual 980 card? Also the 980 has a narrower memory bus...
 
Surprised by the extremely high boost. Kinda what I would have guessed. Looks like about 55-60% faster than the 980 with 50% shader count and 5-10% clockspeeds.
 
Specs look good for a flagship Maxwell. However, Titan II is going to be a repeat of Titan rip-off price and then the faster and cheaper non-DP performance version similar to 780Ti will drop. In retrospect the Titan was a huge waste of money for games. Less than 10 months after it launched, R9 290 matched its gaming performance for $399. Less than 2 years after Titan launched, R9 290 is $260 and 970 is $330 and fire sale 780Ti was $350-370. That means less than 2 years after Titan launched you could buy 4x Titan SLI performance in 290-Quad for the same price OR triple 970/780Tis. Shocking.

This time I think Titan II will be even more expensive - $1099-1199. These GPUs make no sense for games unless someone needs DP or semi-pro CUDA work.

This would be supremely disappointing, considering how long we have anticipated GM200.
 
GTX Titan still going strong 😱

BTW I'm not sure what to think about these benchmarks with both 390X and Titan II suddenly popping out

I don't know in which world the original Titan is faster than a 780 Ti except maybe a very odd VRAM limited scenario.

so whats hard to understand there? its simply showing that 3gb cant run ultra textures so its the very scenario you just mentioned.

The table lists otherwise identical performance settings for the Titan and the 780Ti, but TXAA for the Titan where 2xMSAA is listed for the 780 Ti. TXAA takes more performance than 2xMSAA. Thus the table seems to imply the Titan is faster than the 780Ti.

you need to look at table again...they are using ultra textures on Titan like I said.
 
Here's to hoping I'll be far too lazy to tear down this latest watercooling build which I put a lot of time and effort into, to even consider getting Titan II. As far as CUDA stuff goes, I believe I won't really see anything meaningful between 12GB and 6GB, but 24GB would definitely start to matter. So Titan III for me?

Meh. I guess if all your looking at is raw fps numbers it was a poor buy. But for those of us who know better, we basically got the fastest single GPU for 1.5+ years. That's not half bad.
