It may a great headline … but it’s also a very sad one. Sad for the guys who’ve just went and bought the GTX 1080 Ti. Why do manufacturer’s do that! According to Nvidia … they’ve packed the most raw horsepower they could possibly have into this GPU. It features 3840 NVIDIA® CUDA® cores which runs at 1.6 GHz, and packs 12 TFLOPs of brute force. Plus it’s armed with 12 GB of GDDR5X memory running at over 11 Gbps!
There is ONE problem … it would be nice if Nvidia bothered changing the picture on their website with a Titan Xp!
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti cannibalized the TITAN X Pascal, and the company needed something faster to sell at USD $1,200. Without making much noise about it, the company launched the new TITAN Xp, and with it, discontinued the TITAN X Pascal. The new TITAN Xp features all 3,840 CUDA cores physically present on the “GP102” silicon, all 240 TMUs, all 96 ROPs, and 12 GB of faster 11.4 Gbps GDDR5X memory over the chip’s full 384-bit wide memory interface.
Compare these to the 3,584 CUDA cores, 224 TMUs, 96 ROPs, and 10 Gbps GDDR5X memory of the TITAN X Pascal, and 3,584 CUDA cores, 224 TMUs, 88 ROPs, and 11 GB of 11 Gbps GDDR5X memory across a 352-bit memory bus, of the GTX 1080 Ti. The GPU Boost frequency is 1582 MHz. Here’s the catch – the new TITAN Xp will be sold exclusively through GeForce.com, which means it will be available in very select markets where NVIDIA’s online store has a presence.
