Nvidia geforce gtx titan x (pascal) first performance tests
Table of contents:
The GeForce GTX Titan X will be the new top of the range graphics card for the domestic sector, this new card is based on the Nvidia Pascal architecture to offer unprecedented performance and great energy efficiency that allows it to maintain highly committed power consumption. Finally we already have the first tests of the performance of the new top of the range graphics card from Nvidia.
GeForce GTX Titan X shows its performance in the first tests
The GeForce GTX Titan X will hit the market on August 2 for a recommended price of $ 1, 199 and will be based on the Pascal GP102 core that contains 56 streaming multiprocessors to add 3, 584 CUDA cores, 224 TMUs and 96 ROPs at an operating frequency of 1417 MHz and 1531 MHz in base and turbo modes respectively. The GPU is accompanied by a total of 12 GB of GDDR5X memory with a 384-bit interface and a speed of 10 Gbps for a bandwidth of 480 GB / s. Pascal's high energy efficiency allows the card to work through an 8-pin connector and a 6-pin connector with a TDP of 250W.
Finally we have the first tests of the behavior of the new graphics card in the 3DMark Fire Strile Performance and Fire Strike Ultra benchmarks against the rest of the cards with the Nvidia Pascal architecture, that is, the GeForce GTX 1080, the GeForce GTX 1070 and the GeForce GTX 1060.
Tests indicate that the new GeForce GTX Titan X is 30% faster than the GeForce GTX 1080, a considerable figure but surely much lower than expected by many users who awaited the arrival of the new card to update their equipment. This difference is reduced to just 13% in the event that the GTX 1080 is overclocked, of course you can also skip the GeForce GTX Titan X to stretch the difference.
Compared to the rest of the cards we see that the GeForce GTX Titan X is approximately 50% faster than the GeForce GTX 1070 and 87% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060. This means Nvidia's decision to deprive the GeForce GTX 1060 of the possibility of SLI configurations that could defeat the GeForce GTX Titan X for a much lower price even with all the drawbacks of a dual GPU configuration.
As a conclusion we can affirm that the GeForce GTX Titan X is 30% faster than the GeForce GTX 1080. What do you think of this difference? Did you expect more?
