Nvidia Announces GeForce GTX TITAN X based on GP102 GPU with GDDR5X

Published by

Read this well, announced, not launched. So out of no where Nvidia announced the 1200 USD GeForce GTX TITAN X based on Pascal architecture. The product is expected to launch August two and will only available from selected system builders.



The announcement is unexpected, though there was talk about the product, nobody expected a release before Christmas. Nvidia has been ramping out Pascal SKUs like crazy lately. The new Titan X will hold the GP102, a 12 billion transistor GPU and it can squeeze out 11 TFLOPS of performance. The GP10 would be huge at almost 600mm^2. It matches the Tesla P100 spec for the bigger part, aside from HBM2 memory.

The Pascal-based GP102 features 3,584 shader processor cores, clocked at 1.53GHz (previous-gen Titan X has 3,072 CUDA cores clocked at 1.08GHz) thus 56 streaming multiprocessors, 224 TMUs, 96 ROPs, and a 384-bit GDDR5X memory interface with 12 GB of memory.

  • 12-billion transistors
  • 11 TFLOPs FP32 (32-bit floating point)a
  • 44 TOPS INT8 (new deep learning inferencing instruction)
  • 3,584 CUDA cores at 1.53GHz (versus in previous TITAN X)
  • High performance engineering for maximum overclocking
  • 12GB of GDDR5X memory (480GB/s)

This card is not powered by the same GPU and HBM2 memory, but the GP102 is paired to GDDR5X memory at 10 Gbps. Titan X will be available Aug. 2 for $1,200 direct from NVIDIA.com in North America and Europe, and from select system builders. Availability in Asia will come at a later date.
