The GTX Titan X is now available to purchase
When Nvidia launches a new GPU most of our readers will expect to find a review here on day 1, sadly today this is not the case.
Nvidia's newest $1200 monster is now available to purchase, but most prospective buyers do not have much data to base their purchasing decision on, but alas there is very little that we can do about that for now. Nvidia for whatever reason has decided not to sample this GPU widely, instead focusing their marketing on high levels of compute performance of this GPU, rather than its gaming performance.
We may not have any of our own performance numbers, but today we do have some data courtesy of gamestar.de, who have managed to get their own Titan X and collected data on some of todays most graphically intensive days.
What we can see from these results is that the GTX Titan X GPU does outperform the GTX 1080 by a fair margin, but a lot less than a lot of users expect given its CUDA core lead of over 1000 when compared to the GTX 1080.
The GTX Titan X contains over 50% more VRAM with 50% more memory bandwidth, making this GPU perfect for high powered 4K gaming, though the extremely high cost of this GPU will put a lot of buyer off purchasing it.
With a price that is almost 2x higher than the GTX 1080 Founders Edition, the GTX Titan X Pascal does not offer great value for money in terms of cost to performance.
| GTX Titan X | GTX 1080 FE | GTX 1070 FE | GTX 1060 FE | |

| Price | $1200 | $699 | $449 | $299 |
Like all other GTX Titan GPUs before it the new Titan X offers industry leading performance, but at a cost that the vast majority of gamers simply can't afford.
The new Titan X is the most powerful single GPU today, offering enthusiast-grade performance at a price that simply unaffordable for all but the most wealthy of PC gamers.
