More Extreme in Every Way: The New Titan Is Here – Nvidia TITAN Xp
- mark212 10y agoFinally! MacOS drivers for Pascal
- gbrown_ 10y agoNice to see this but surely this is only of use for Hackintosh builds? Or is Thunderbolt connectivity supported for external GPUs?
- rz2k 10y agoThe very old Pro, and external GPUs: >Currently Mac users are limited to Maxwell GPUs from the company’s 9-series cards, but next week we’ll be able to finally experience Pascal, albeit a $1200 Pascal model, on the Mac. >We have reached out to Nvidia for a statement about compatibility down the line with lesser 10-series cards, and I’m happy to report that Nvidia states that all Pascal-based GPUs will be Mac-enabled via upcoming drivers. This means that you will be able to use a GTX 1080, for instance, on a Mac system via an eGPU setup, or with a Hackintosh build. https://9to5mac.com/2017/04/06/nvidia-titan-xp-beta-pascal-drivers-mac/ https://9to5mac.com/2017/04/06/nvidia-titan-xp-beta-pascal-d...
- dawnerd 10y agoThats awesome, I was thinking about putting a hackintosh build together with a spare 1070 I have laying around.
- dogma1138 10y agoMore likely for the iMac/MacPro fresh. Apple doesn't officially supports external GPUs and iirc it only will work on an Apple device in boot camp since the TB drivers don't work on OSX.
- Bluestrike2 10y agoTell me about it. I've been waiting to pull the trigger on a 1080 for a while now.
- itsdrewmiller 10y agoMaybe a sign of things to come for the new iMac or MBP refresh?
- gbrown_ 10y agoAlso the previous Pascal Titan appears to be dropped from the 10 series webpage[1], although it's not hard to find [2]. So it looks like this replaces the old card entirely. I've not followed the consumer GPU market too closely as of late, is this normal for Nvidia? Or have they perhaps got yields up to better level?

- modeless 10y agoThe 1080 Ti was marginally faster than the previous Titan, while being significantly cheaper. This is a small spec bump to put the Titan back on top, so that people with money to burn still have an excuse to give Nvidia $1200 rather than $700. If you ask me the 1080 Ti is still a better choice, but there are always a few people out there who just have to have the very fastest thing and Nvidia is happy to take their money.
- beautifulfreak 10y agoI keep my eye on the Folding@Home spreadsheet of GPUs and their price/performance ratios, updated with price changes regularly. My 2012 Mac Mini going full blast does about 5k Points Per Day (PPD), while the Titan X Pascal does 1200k, but performance per Watt is the key metric. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1v5gXral3BcFOoXs5n1M6l_Uo3pZpQYogn6gVlxRPnz0/edit#gid=0 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1v5gXral3BcFOoXs5n1M6...
- douglasfshearer 10y agoSomeone updated the 10-series Wikipedia page [1] making comparison to the previous card easier. Compared to the Titan X Pascal it has more cores, a higher clock, and more memory bandwidth.

- chrissnell 10y agoI wonder when the Linux drivers will be out. I'm running dual 1070s powering a single Dell 5K on my Arch Linux desktop machine and it's amazing.
- JohnJamesRambo 10y agoWhat do you play on it?
- ssijak 10y agoProbably freeciv or openTTD, but on medium settings.
- Mk-0 10y agoSerious question- what benefit do you get out of this? I had an SLI setup with Linux for awhile as well, before realizing that the second GPU was never being tapped into at all. It's recognized, and is getting power, but it's wholly under-utilized (if at all). From everything I've found, Linux doesn't benefit from SLI nearly as much Windows can.
- semi-extrinsic 10y agoI've used several multi-GPU (up to 8x K40) Linux machines, and if your application can provide enough GPU work (say ML/AI, or physics simulations, etc.) they scale perfectly. For gaming, I don't know, but could be GP is doing non-gaming stuff.
- andrewvijay 10y agoI hope you write cuda code with that.
- andrewvijay 10y agoSo finally I can get a 1080ti now.
- utexaspunk 10y agoIt's funny I remember this magazine cover as a kid: http://s7.computerhistory.org/is/image/CHM/500004286-03-01?$re-medium$ http://s7.computerhistory.org/is/image/CHM/500004286-03-01?$... The machine pictured (Intel Touchstone Delta) performed 30GFLOPs and cost upward of $10m. Now a computer 400x as powerful fits on a card and can be yours for $1.2k.
- samch 10y agoWow - that brought back memories. Here's a link to the full article: https://books.google.com/books?id=ogEAAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PP1&pg=PA50#v=twopage&q&f=false https://books.google.com/books?id=ogEAAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PP1&pg=PA...
- nik736 10y agoDoes this also mean we will finally get mac drivers for the new cards? (Hello Hackintosh Community)
- deleted 10y ago[deleted]
- loxias 10y agoDoes anyone have any idea, or even educated guess on if and when we might see a price drop on other, now ""outdated"" (not really) GPUs? I was just starting to plan building a desktop with plenty of CUDA cores, and now that this has come out I'm wondering if I should wait a few weeks or a month to see if prices fall.
