I'm sitting here in my office with 90's gangster rap blaring and all I can think is "yeah, if I lived the gangster life, I'd have one of these in my gold tower with fly bitches dancing in the background while I'm sitting in my hot tub getting head from someone that doesn't mind giving head underwater."

Because in no way does my real world ass have a chance at owning this.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

lol nVidia

Looking forward to the comparison charts between this card and the current console generation.

 

[2San]

Full access to the 12Gb ram for CGI etc?

If it's a dual gpu that means the ram is actually 6gb. Since it needs to mirror the ram for each gpu.

A dual gpu would be disappointing though.

Get the fuck outta here

 

[Lasthope106]

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?

We really shouldn't be seeing that way. You could make the same argument about pirating games. Some people were never going to buy the game anyway. Some people were never going to buy a gaming grade pc.

 

[avaya]

My kinda pricing

 

[SwiftDeath]

So do places like Tom's hardware get these cards for free for benchmarking or will they have to fork out 3K like the rest of us plebs?

 

[titusandronicus]

What's the max you can run in SLI? Could you have 24GB of VRAM?

 

[BouncyFrag]

Died at the sight of the Over the Top gif.

 

[Caffeine]

What's the max you can run in SLI? Could you have 24GB of VRAM?

vram doesnt stack in SLI configurations

 

[GraveRobberX]

Seriously if you Tril-SLI this, you literally will become The Lawnmower Man

That is the only logical explanation of why anyone would want this

 

[ElTorro]

If it's a dual gpu that means the ram is actually 6gb. Since it needs to mirror the ram for each gpu.

A dual gpu would be disappointing though.

Looks like it, though, the numbers are exactly twice the numbers of a normal Titan. And since they are still manufacturing on a 28nm process, it's hard to believe that they made a chip with twice the die size of a GK110.

Then again, what is the benefit of that card over a Titan SLI setup?

 

[wormania]

SLI duplicates VRAM

They could get temporary loans of review samples. Sometimes you'll see sites hold contests to give out review samples to their readership, in which case, the company is just sending the review sample to the site with no expectation that it will be returned.

 

[SmokedMeat]

This should run cross gen games really well.

 

[polyh3dron]

WUT?
This is card is not needed for any gaming use, nor will it ever be needed for the foreseeable future.

Yeah, when it comes out try supersampling The Witcher 3 for 4K on your measly 780 Ti and see if it runs at a constant 60 FPS.

 

[Cow Mengde]

Pretty sure these aren't gaming cards.

 

[Zaph]

Pretty sure these aren't gaming cards.

Says you

 

[rrs]

Could I replace my George Foremen grill with this?

Two of these in SLI and then you need a 4K monitor.......

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

Already happening in the thread

Pretty sure these aren't gaming cards.

Won't stop boutique PC brands

 

[RedHotChimiChanga]

12 GB GDDR5

PS4, are you even trying?

Well you could buy like 5 PS4s, glue them together for 40 GB GDDR5 and it will still be cheaper.

 

[Raist]

That's it, Nvidia officially lost their shit.

Can't wait for people to benchmark it and show a 3fps improvement in Crysis 3 Ultra high.

 

[dark10x]

A $3000 graphics card? For certain applications, sure, why not. We already have more expensive options available.

Hopefully nobody gets the idea that selling a product like this to gamers is even remotely acceptable, however. GPU prices are already higher than ever and certainly don't need to keep climbing.

 

[HoosTrax]

Pretty sure these aren't gaming cards.

See, that's what I'm not sure about. If Nvidia a) renamed the Quadro line without explicitly telling us, or b) raised the bar on "halo products".

 

[Barzul]

The Granddaddy of cards.

 

[Prophet Steve]

That's it, Nvidia officially lost their shit.

Uh no, this is not meant as your gaming PC.

EDIT: My bad, wrong thread.

Still, this is not for your avarage gamer. Plenty of people that are willing to buy it, so why not.

 

[Rubius]

Well, it's a "futurist" card. Just like 4K TV that cost 7000$ right now. In 4-5 years it will be 500$. It's for people who want to have the best thing possible right now and not wait. Always been like this.

 

[titusandronicus]

For reference you could buy a Wii U, PS4, Xbox 360, and have at least 30 full price retail games.

 

[FACE]

That's it, Nvidia officially lost their shit.

This is not meant for gaming.

 

[Biochet]

but can it run dayz?

 

[KumaJG]

 

[Raist]

Uh no, this is not meant as your gaming PC.

This is not meant for gaming.

Yes, but you just know some people will put that thing in their gaming PC.

 

[gnak]

Someone explain how powerful this is in DBZ terms.

 

[R_Deckard]

If it's a dual gpu that means the ram is actually 6gb. Since it needs to mirror the ram for each gpu.

A dual gpu would be disappointing though.

Yes but what would be the point in selling a simple Dual GPU for more than buying 2 singles and SLI them!

There must be more to this than that surely?

 

[titusandronicus]

That's it, Nvidia officially lost their shit.

Believe it or not, GPUs are also used for graphic design, video editing, running simluations, light shows etc.

 

[SwiftDeath]

For reference you could buy a Wii U, PS4, Xbox 360, and have at least 30 full price retail games.

Wouldn't it make more sense to say you could buy a pretty great PC rig with 3K?

Or a mid-to high rig and a PS4 and an XB1 and a Wii U for that price?

Pretty sure you could make a decent rig for like $1500 last I checked [from scratch] and you'd still have like $300 to blow on steam sales and the like after the consoles

 

[dr_rus]

Don't buy it.
Titans sell like candy for a $999. Unless they stop sellign - Nvidia didn't loose anything.

 

[2San]

Then again, what is the benefit of that card over a Titan SLI setup?

Yeah, dual gpu is a pretty safe bet based on what we know.

Not sure what it's purpose is. A single gpu that has 2 times the a performance of a Titan Black sounds a lot more fun.

Yes but what would be the point in selling a simple Dual GPU for more than buying 2 singles and SLI them!

There must be more to this than that surely?

I hope that there is more to this.

 

[Raistlin]

gotta mine dem bitcoins

 

[adamantypants]

Holy jesus fuck. I can't even comprehend anything about this card. It's like the engineers thought what overkill was, then overkilled the overkill.

Well you could buy like 5 PS4s, glue them together for 40 GB GDDR5 and it will still be cheaper.

No. Consoles you duct tape together duh

 

[Prototype Viktor]

Everyone has low end GPUs now!

PC God Race confirmed

 

[cebri.one]

800W card?

 

[Buzzman]

I literally burst out laughing when I saw the price.

 

[dark10x]

Believe it or not, GPUs are also used for graphic design, video editing, running simluations, light shows etc.

That's my first thought with this product but the fact that they are using the Titan name has me concerned. They've typically used different branding for professional products.

 

[anexanhume]

SLI duplicates VRAM

Which will no longer be true with NVLink. Big deal there.

 

[Lonely1]

Now I almost feel like I am obliged to buy one. You know, for science.

Only one? Pft...

 

[mkenyon]

That's my first thought with this product but the fact that they are using the Titan name has me concerned. They've typically used different branding for professional products.

That's who mostly buy the Titan in the first place though.

It's been a Professional OR Gamer card since day 1.

 

[Corto]

We need an armistice. This race will result in Earth's destruction. How much power do we really need? Stop this madness, AMD and Nvidia. Stop it!

 

[XiaNaphryz]

That's my first thought with this product but the fact that they are using the Titan name has me concerned. They've typically used different branding for professional products.

Yeah, if they had slapped the Quadro name on this and said it was the new premium line noone would really make such a big deal about the price. I guess they want to get some of the consumer market wanting to jump in on this one with the Titan branding.

That said, 12 GB of memory isn't enough for the really high-end CG guys. They want 32-48 GB at least, we'll likely not see that until Volta.

 

[Fox_Mulder]

I'll wait for ZEUS

 

[chickdigger802]

wonder if this can be tax write off.
