Now we're within a day of the launch, leaked 3DMark results are here to tease the performance of the Pascal-based Titan X graphics card. VideoCardz got its hands-on some 3DMark results, running the Fire Strike Performance and Fire Strike Ultra runs of 3DMark with some bloody impressive results.

The new Titan X scores 26,660 in 1080p run of Fire Strike versus the 21,603 from the GeForce GTX 1080 - an increase of 23%. In the 4K run of Fire Strike, the new Pascal-based Titan X beats the GeForce GTX 1080 by 29% - with the Titan X scoring 6532 against the GTX 1080 with 5043.

NVIDIA's next-gen Titan X goes on sale tomorrow for $1200, with some monster performance behind the price. But with the GTX 1070 holding its own, two of them in SLI would be quite the powerhouse, even against the monstrous performance of the new Titan X.

Nvidia promised 60%, Half of it was delivered.

Not much of an increase considering it's specs. I don't think this card will overclock good on air, it has too much memory and it's a bigger chip.

I couldn't find what the clockspeed of the titan x was run at but other sites have it at 1.4ghz base clock, 1.6ghz-1.7ghz boost clock depending on temps. Thats why its not much of an increase over the 1080 gtx

It will only be worth it if it can clock to 1.8ghz - 2ghz, now on watercooling keeping temps below 60c it'll boost much higher.

Well considering its a workstation card and they don't usually OC them or water cool em either.

Stick with 1080's for all that fun stuff.

I know they always stick gaming stuff with these kinds of cards, silly really. It would be fun to run with games like Star Citizen which could really use the horse power, but for everything else a 1080 is plenty powerful enough... IMO anyway.
