NVIDIA has launched the Pascal based Titan X graphics card and what's actually new is the fact that the card can only be ordered directly from NVIDIA. The price for this monstrous graphics card is 1299 Euro.

A quick look at the specs shows there are 3584 shader units, 224 TMUs and 96 ROPs. This GPU consists of an insane 12 billion transistors, which is almost doubles the number seen on the GTX 1080 (7.2 billion). In terms of clock speeds the new GP102 based Titan X runs at 1417 MHz base and 1531 MHz boost clock. Compared that to 1607/1733 MHz base/boost clock you get with the GP104 (GTX 1080) and the difference is anything but big. The Titan X new also uses the full 250 Watt TDP, whereas the GP104 cards "only" need 180 Watt. What's also interesting to see is that Titan X makes use of a 384 bit memory interface and a whopping 12 Gigabyte of GDDR5X VRAM. The memory clocks at 2500 MHz and therefore 480 GB/s memory bandwidth are available.

In the case of the cooler NVIDIA is using same unit we find on the Founders Edition cards. Based on a vapor chamber design it should be capable of removing the heat at a reasonable temperature level. What's different to the other Founders Edition cards is the fact, that this cooler is black and not silver.

For now the new Titan X can only be ordered from NVIDIA directly. Apart from that our partner MIFCOM is so far the only system integrator world wide offer PCs, shipping with pre-built rigs using this graphics card.
