NVIDIA announces a new Titan X based on the Pascal architecture

As the pattern with the past few NVIDIA launches, the green team has announced a new GeForce Titan X utilizing the Pascal architecture seen on the GeForce 10XX series of cards. As you can expect from this $1200 card, it's going to be a beast. Here are the specs:

• 11 TFLOPS FP32
• 44 TOPS INT8 (new deep learning inferencing instruction)
• 12B transistors
• 3,584 CUDA cores at 1.53GHz (versus 3,072 cores at 1.08GHz in previous TITAN X)
• Up to 60% faster performance than previous TITAN X
• High performance engineering for maximum overclocking
• 12 GB of GDDR5X memory (480 GB/s)

How does it compare to the GeForce GTX 1080? Well, here's the specs for that card:

• 8.9 TFLOPS
• 7.2B transistors
• 2,560 CUDA cores at 1.60GHz
• 8GB GDDR5X memory (320 GB/s)

If you got the cash and want a seriously fast gaming PC, this is the card to get. We'll have to see how it compares in real world specs to a GTX 1080 once the card gets into reviewer hands.

August 2nd is when you can grab one yourself.
