![]() However, even with a smaller memory controller, it's 150 mm 2 larger then the GP102 of TITAN Xp (600mm 2 vs 450mm 2). (FP64 is 1/2 FP32, and FP16 is 2x FP32.) It takes die room to connect registers with circuits that perform whole different instructions. NVIDIA's GP100, for instance, is the ideal 1:2:4 FP64:FP32:FP16. As soon as one gaming engine maker makes good use of that DX12/Vulkan API managed NON(CF/SLI) multi-GPU load balancing feture set in the new graphics APIs well then things will be very different going forward. So those mainstream RX 580/other rebrands/refreshes will have their uses, even for gaming where the entire games/gaming engine industry will be making use of more of the DX12/Vulkan NON(CF/SLI) methods of GPU load balancing for gaming/other usage. But the Vulkan/DX12 APIs will offer API managed NON(CF or SLI) mamaged multi-GPU for gaming/other uses load balancing and the developers are already starting to look into that Graphics API managed NON(CF/SLI) multi-GPU load balancing for gaming and GPGPU usage. Now gaming that’s another matter as that requires ROPs/other resources. And for the price of one Titan XP($1200) I can afford 6 RX 580s for a total SP FP TFLOPS 36.72 and that’s a lot of SP FP compute for $1200. ![]() Then I can get 2 RX 580s(At around $400) at 6.17 SP TFLOPS each, with 2 RX 580s offering 12.24 SP TFLOPS of compute power. IF the RX 580 retails for less than $200 for some SKUs and the RX 580 is used for number crunching like in coin mining. So what is its: HP FP, SP FP, DP FP, or even 8 bit FP TFLOPS. TFLOPS is not a metric in and of itself even if it has a 10.97 TFLOPS(Now 12.15) in front of that TFLOPS acronym. It’s almost like they released an all-around better product at the same price point. 2016’s NVIDIA Titan X is also listed at $1200, but is out of stock for some weird reason… hmm. The NVIDIA TITAN Xp is available now from NVIDIA’s website for $1200 USD. NVIDIA's blog post also mentions that macOS drivers are coming this month. Memory bandwidth, for its 12GB of GDDR5X, has also increase from 480 GB/s to 547.7 GB/s, which is a 14.1% increase. The extra 256 CUDA cores and slight bump in boost clocks equate to an expected 10.7% increase in boost shader capacity (12.15 TFLOPs vs 10.97 TFLOPs). The NVIDIA TITAN Xp is, finally, a fully-unlocked GP102 for the consumer market, which was previously exclusive to the Tesla P40 and Quadro P6000 graphics cards. Alternatively, they could be trolling everyone, but doing so with a legit product launch. While I realize that it’s the other way around if anything, part of me wants to believe that NVIDIA released this new graphics card, the TITAN Xp, solely to prevent people from calling last year’s Titan X “Titan XP”.
