GTX TITAN Z announced $2999

ElTorro

I wanted to dominate the living room. Then I took an ESRAM in the knee.
I don't know if this is dual because it has 12 GB GDDR5... I am guessing that may be one whole block? Or are they counting it as one since it's a 'research' card and it'd be running in SLI?

12 GB GDDR5 is what you would expect from a dual GPU version of the Titan.

I think the OP needs to make it very clear that this is NOT A GAMING CARD. Its a development card, used for work stations, render farms and super computers. Its been very obvious if you have been watching the stream but still people went bezerk.

Compared to a typical Quadro card this is dirt cheap (3000$ for the TitanZ compared to 5000$ for a Quadro)

So what actual benefits does it give other than impressing people with numbers?

I could swing this if this was the best way to do VR...

BOOM!

8GDDR5 wut?! lol

This is how we do it on pc land.

who the hell will buy this monster?

There will no doubt be a handful of nerds dumb enough to buy one of these for the 15 minutes of e-fame on their tech forum of choice. And with that I mean nerds who have no use for a card like this and exclusively use it to run benchmarks to post online.

And that's great. I hope we have gaffers like that.

But it is. He didn't use the term gamer but he explicitly highlighted you can go into any shop and pick one up.

Watch it sell out within the first minutes of availability.

Kind of a given. Maybe not minutes but definitely within the first day. A lot of folks got way too much money to burn through and they're probably not making a ton of these. Especially if they don't think gamers are going to buy it (they are)
 

hmmmmm..:O

Someone explain how powerful this is in DBZ terms.
This one is Akira Toriyama.

True, that is different compared to the Quadro series. This does look to be usable for a gaming PC if you would have the budget. But still, thinking you would need this any time soon is crazy.

Looks at GTX Titan Z...
"My God! It's full of s̶t̶a̶r̶s̶ bitcoins!"

[Truth is I'm that very knowledgeable about mining for bitcoins so admittedly this is probably not the best card for that sort things :p]
 
Two of these in SLI and then you need a 4K monitor.......

The return of the $10,000 PC meme is upon us!

nah 4K monitors cheaper so it not 10k yet lol .
Won't need this for gaming anytime soon but someone going pick and fool around with it looking forward to it .
 
This is only going to perpetuate the whole BUT WHY SPEND $3K ON A GAMING PC WHEN I CAN PLAY FROM MY COMFY COUCH WITH MY CONSOLE OF CHOICE mentality, isn't it?
