Nvidia presents the Geforce GTX Titan Z with two GK110 and 12 GB of memory

This week, the GPU Technology Conference is being developed, where Nvidia and partners will present the latest advances in computer graphics and GPGPU applications. It all gets off to a flying start with the introduction of an extremely expensive graphics card with dual graphics processors.

Continuing the TITAN legacy of supercomputer-inspired performance, TITAN Z is engineered for next-generation 5K and multi-monitor gaming.

The newcomer is called Geforce GTX Titan Z and is based just like its predecessors on the giant graphics processor GK110. This time, however, two circuits are combined for a total of 5,760 CUDA cores, double up from the GTX 780 Ti and Titan Black. This uses a full 12 GB of GDDR5 memory – effectively 6 GB per graphics processor.

The graphics card itself is very similar to previous flagships in the Titan and 700 series, with silver-colored metal cooler and centered axial fan. Judging from the pictures, however, the radiator grows a notch and blocks an extra card space more than normal, a total of three in number.

However, two graphics processors do not necessarily mean that the graphics card is hot and loud. According to Nvidia, low-profile components, air ducts and dynamic clock frequencies are used to keep the graphics card both quiet and cool.

The Geforce GTX Titan Z is expected to appear in May at the recommended sales price of 2999 dollars, corresponding to approximately 24,000 kronor including VAT.
