Geforce Titan - GK110 will be a consumer part

[SKYMTL]

Their article gave me an impression that enabling FP64 stopped the card from boosting. Did I get that wrong?

Well, yes. But enabling FP64 also cuts clock speeds down to VERY low levels and also reduces the number of available cores to 896.

So is this actually true or not? I thought I read the complete opposite earlier.

It is true.

From the tail end of our article, which addresses the rumors I've seen bandied about recently:

• This is not a limited run part. In the conference call with reporters, senior product manager Justin Walker said there will be "More than enough to satisfy demand for these high end gaming PCs." The rumor mill some how got a limited production run of 10,000 units in its head.
• EVGA and ASUS are the two board partners bringing TITAN out in North America. There may be other partners in other countries, but not in this market.

Yeah, been trying to correct people for the last week or two that have been parroting that false info but no one wanted to listen...

Well, yes. But enabling FP64 also cuts clock speeds down to VERY low levels and also reduces the number of available cores to 896.

So, that somehow isn't the end-user disabling boost?

Sure but for what benefit? It disables boost and turns off a whole wack of other features. I was under the impression that Zalbard was referring to disabling Boost from an overclocking perspective...which can't be accomplished.

Maybe my post was too short and took what he was saying too literally.

I gotta say, nVIDIA knows how to run a business. Kerching.

No, you are correct.

I was under the impression that it wouldn't reduce CUDA core count available for gaming purposes.

[Loque]

let's be honest here, the price alone for a 680 gtx with 6gb would cost like $800, then with the extra build quality would go for $900, Titan pricing is reasonable considering everything it brings in a nice single gpu package.

Ok, now I'm just confused. I guess I shouldn't have butted in.

And by that you mean $600-$650.

Sapphire 7970 Toxic 6GB is under $700 USD. And that's a factory overclocked part with a custom cooler.

I was honestly hoping for a $800 USD price.

[metachronos]

this is fap worthy

^ Hope you know that the green Geforce GTX logo is also LED lit

^^ Sapphire toxics are terrible cards. Doesn't matter if they have a custom cooler, their build quality is atrocious.

Id definitely pay extra for a decent, reliable reference design over a Sapphire one. When getting custom designs, you actually need to be careful with getting something that's better than the reference design. Sapphire cards have been worse than AMD reference in too many cases.

oooohhhh Tastes so good make you want to slap your mama!

[Mungri]

Ok those would look too lovely with my Red phanteks cooler + white fans, and also my silver ram modules and plain metal case interior

Heh, I was just thinking, if Sapphire or HIS were somehow making these, they would probably cover that plexi window with a horrible sticker with some hideous video game female character on it.

Actual size is 551mm? based on NVIDIA's own data.

Maybe they measured the actual package while Nvidia's number is the actual physical silicon size?

[mbreslin]

My wallet gasped at 999$ I will not listen to pricing rumors again, I had accepted 800$ and was prepared for 1000$/card with tax and waterblock.

I don't know if it's greedy or what but I'll be paying it so.. Maybe I'm a sucker.

Anyway I'm in for two, hurry up and take my money.

[cx-ray]

From what it looks like Titan is a 1GHz card provided you keep it cool enough. It should respond well to water cooling.

If only I had the balls to empty my bank account on just one lol. I would buy one right away if it was 600 quid, but 830, no freaking way

Maybe, I don't know for the moment LordEC911. I asked Damien, we'll see.

That's really impressive ! Seems nVidia made a terrific job regarding power efficiency.
Just hopin' a cheapo GK110 version now

Did they really manage to release this giant on A1 silicon!!

One Crysis cruncher and Ramen noodles for the rest of the year can't be that bad

Meh, I already started living on 19p tins of kidney beans, chick peas, garden peas and sweetcorn stuffed full of spices

Needed to start eating healthier, and I can get 3 months worth of unsalted tinned veg for 25 quid . And cheapo cereal and brown bread.
