According to the latest rumors, Nvidia could launch both the new Titan as well as the GTX 1080 Ti graphics card, both which should be based on the GP102 GPU, a slightly cut down version of the fully-enabled Pascal GP100 GPU.

In case you missed it earlier, the GP100 is the fully-enabled Pascal GPU packing a total of 60 Streaming Multiprocessors and a total of 5760 CUDA cores.

Since even the P100 Accelerator did not use the fully enabled GP100 GPU, but a cut-down version with 56 SMs and 3584 FP32 cores and 1792 FP64 cores (5376 CUDA cores in total), the newest rumors suggest that we might see a similar GPU for the upcoming new Titan and GTX 1080 Ti flagship graphics cards.

Since the gaming graphics card like the GTX 1080 Ti does not need FP64 cores, the GP102 GPU will be somewhere half-way between the GP100 and the GP104 GPUs, with possible 3840 FP32 CUDA cores and a TDP of somewhere around 270W with GDDR5X memory. If Nvidia manage to switch to HBM2 before the release of the GTX 1080 Ti, this card could hit 250W TDP and offer significant performance improvement.

The GP102 GPU has not been confirmed anywhere but it simply makes sense as that is what Nvidia did before.

Of course, bear in mind that these are only early rumors and we possibly won't see the GTX 1080 Ti before Q4 this year.
