GTX TITAN Z announced $2999

This is unacceptable. This is why I say that PC gaming is the most dangerous movement in gaming. We have companies like MS and Sony selling high end graphic consoles for a fraction of the price of this thing and they do this whilst delivering the majority of the power that this thing does (8GB DDR5 in PS4/ 12GB DDR5 in nvidia Titan= 66% of the power). At this rate and with console sales dropping due to bad word of mouth from many unappreciative gamers, we may face a time soon that anyone who isn't a PC gamer is unable to afford to game. If we allow this to continue, we may see the end of gaming as anything but yet another temporary distraction for the wealthy e.g. yachting.

How far forward into the future do we need to go where this becomes a mid level card?

Because I want to live *there*.

Looking for meaning in GAF
Someone at Nvidia probably went "Some idiots out there will pay ANYTHING to have the best card on the market!" when deciding the pricing.

And that person is right. All they need to do is produce a handful of these things, and some crazy people out there will buy them at an enormous profit and publicity to Nvidia.

It's evil, but clever.

They can kindly fuck right off.

This kind of bullshit is making me want to get an AMD for my next card.
Why? Why do people need to find something wrong with everything. Offering an expensive no-holds)barred product in no way affects you. How is this a bad thing?

Do you not plan on being around in a few years? It really wont take that long.

Gaming is literally the only application the Nvidia blog announcing this mentioned.
If you were watching the live stream, it actually launched straight into a demo of 3D rendering stuff, not gaming applications.

I can't tell if this is a joke post or not.

Breaking news: misterxmedia now claiming xbox one has hidden titan z inside.

Came here to make this joke. Actually the narrative will be,

"No no no, teh xbox one still has a R9 280X, BUT the customization that microsoft spent 3 $ bnil on means they added in Nvidia technology while working with AMD. Microsoft is ahead of the game!"

wait you mean to tell me Titan Z is not based on Nvidia's Einstein architecture? Oh it's not even based on Volta / Pascal, but certainly it's based on Max... oh it's still Kepler.

This is a joke right? Please? Biggest lol came from the "DDR5 bit", could of at least got it right and called it GDDR5 if you're going to troll though.

This is the worst post I have ever seen.

No, I didn't. Still, 5k multi monitor gaming is what they've published.


Also, I'd guess this GPU is over 10tflops. There's no way in hell it's gonna be considered mid range anytime soon.

Edit nm 8tflops

Kinda ironic from somebody called Horse Armour :)

Anyway in 2 years time this card will be 200$... the real next gen ;P

The centered hamstercage fan dumps half the dissipated heat back into your case.

If you're buying this (don't buy this), make sure you have a fan set to exhaust behind it.
So does the 690. And 590. And every non-reference GPU.

Cmon now.

So why would someone buy this over dual Titans? I hardly think space and number of pci slots matters at this price bracket.
