Lurker Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 While NVIDIA unveiled its latest powerhouse GPU last week, it revealed more information about the brand new Titan X at its own developer's conference earlier today. For those who squirm at tech speak, look away now, because we're going to indulge in quite a bit of it: The Titan X comes with 8 billion transistors, 3,072 CUDA cores, 7 teraflops of single-precision performance plus 0.2 teraflops of double-precision workloads. It also has 12GB of VRAM, which NVIDIA says is twice the amount of previous graphics cards. What does this mean for you? Well, NVIDIA is promising better gaming performance of course, but Jen-Hsun Huang, NVIDIA's CEO, says that the Titan X also has great potential in scientific applications. A 16-core Intel Xeon would normally take 43 days to process data for a deep neural net analysis, but the Titan X can do it in just 1.5 days, he says. Suffice to say, the Titan X is a monster of a GPU, which might explain its hefty price tag: $999. source : http://www.engadget.com/2015/03/17/nvidia-tegra-x-999/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabersan Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Real big beast... just amazing! I like that piece.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted March 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 this is fast for spatial modelling , I guess but but i'm curious , I hope we can compare to industrial graphic card, like Matrox, NVIDIA Quadro, or RADEON FireGL, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabersan Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 It seems that this graphic card is more comparable with GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 970 multiply by 1,5 in term of performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 this monster will need a lot of power, I imagine at least 1200 watt pure power or above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
