It's performing great, there is no doubt about it. But it costs way too much IMO.
If there are people out there paying that amount of money for it, that's how they price ( and will keep pricing ) it.
No matter how much & many people will be posting "very expensive" "too expensive for just 20% more performance in 1080p" etc etc, fact is, if there are 10.000 pieces on the shelves globally, in a month or even less, they will most likely be out of stock.
The market and the consumer can drive the price up or down, and sadly, the consumers base is terrible, as a result... expect the next Titan and why not, even an AMD Radeon RS at $1,200+...
The Titan is not limited to just 10,000 units, that was a sick rumor started on the net that spread like wildfire.

EVGA up to their usual bull:banana::banana::banana::banana: again "Limit 1 GTX TITAN per household".
Exactly, to some folks it simply boils down to this is what they want and they are willing to pay the price for what they want without question.Quote:

My only complaint is I haven't seen enough enter to win a free Titan video card contests yet! :D
This sucks, at least for rich people that want 2-3:Quote:

Also $999.99 = 655 GBP or 758 Euro lol.
We get so ripped off here, and no taxes and all that dont account for this big difference
" but they won’t be able to expose direct voltage control or ship parts with higher voltages. Nor for that matter will they be able to create Titan cards with significantly different designs (i.e. more VRM phases); every Titan card will be a variant on the reference design."
Guess I don't have to worry about waiting for non-reference. If anyone sees them for sale/preorder in USA shops please post it here.

Wanted in stock so i'm holding out
Unfortunately I'll have to find somewhere that doesn't charge californians tax. I'd rather not throw 2x titans worth of tax away when that will pay for one waterblock.
How long do you think it will be until the factory overclocked boards will become available from EVGA, MSI, ASUS and so on?
TBH unless the AIBs can make unlocked voltage cards, I wouldnt bother waiting for their custom cards for a Titan.
The reference cooler is very good, very quiet and keeps the card cool even when overclocked. Plus it also looks great. The only thing it seems that AIBs can do on their custom designs is change the cooler.
The probelm with past cards like the GTX 680 / 670 is that the reference coolers werent any good for overclocking. Most of the custom design coolers kept GK104s under 70 degrees with no noise.
My reference 680 cooler needs to be set a lot louder to compete with my previous KFA2 EX OC cooler, but the clocks dont decrease until 80 degrees, just the voltage, so I set a custom fan profile to keep the GPU under 80 degrees which is fine.

I never said that the Titan is a limited quantity product, and of course that rumor has been pulled out of somebody's.... ***hole.
Oh ok, my apologies. I assumed you were asking for a source.
From what I have read Titan could stand to benefit from cooler temps more than earlier GKxxx chips with gpu boost 2.0 putting more emphasis on temps to determine clock speed.Quote:

Any US retailer that is "cheap" $999 or less and ships internationally?
Newegg doesn't ship to euro :<
Stock cooler plus Coollaboratory Liquid Ultra thermal paste on die and BAM 10c lower temps. No need for water unless you are rich and value silence or you already have a loop.
I think Fry's ships international, sidewindercomputers.com (carries EVGA gpus), if not a friend over there can ship it to ya.
Wow.
1 Titan = my 3x 480s on that 3DMark score :lol:
