I'm gonna guess 899$

I think the current line of Titan cards are about $1500. Can't imagine one with 12GB memory going for any less. Might even be closer to $2k.

I was closer! $999.

Wow, good guess! Probably had to be sub-1k to appeal to the gamer crowd, which this must be targeted towards. Will be interested in seeing the benchmarks and how it stacks up against the current 980 cards.

You hit the nail on the head. They were talking about it earlier in the year about wanting to get the prices better on the higher quality hardware.

I spent 400$ on my last card I would spend quite a bit on a card but even still 1k is a lot.

Kz 03-17-2015 04:02 PM

I ended up rebuilding my pc recently (PSU died and bricked my ssd drives). So I started to entertain going 4k and thus looking at dual 980s in SLI or the Titan X.

Learned an interesting tidbit about the Titan X... since it's a 12GB card, your system effectively needs 24GB of memory to use it. The catch is, Window 7 Home Premium (64-bit, ofc) maxes out at 16GB.

FWIW, it sounds like 4k tech is still super immature despite prices dropping. Not worth the trouble yet.
