For 2013, this device is not only the fastest single-chip video card, but also the most expensive in its segment. As for the technical characteristics of the novelty, the device is made for the PCI Express 3.0 x16 bus on a black textolite and a 28-nanometer GK110 chip with the Kepler architecture. The GeForce GTX Titan has 6 Gb of GDDR5 video memory with a graphics core frequency of 837 MHz.

Obviously, with such characteristics, the video card needs a solid cooling system. The developers approached this task more than responsibly – the GeForce GTX Titan is equipped with a two-slot cooler with two aluminum radiators, covered with a magnesium alloy casing, and a solid 90 mm fan.
Separately, it is worth noting the fact that in addition to the impressive appearance and technical characteristics, the novelty has an excellent background. The fact is that the chip on which the GeForce GTX Titan was made was used in NVidia Tesla computing systems, on the architecture of which the Titan supercomputer installed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (USA) was created. It was in honor of him that the novelty got its name.
