NVIDIA TITAN Xp: Overview | Specification | Is it good for gaming? (Boost clock rate 1582 MHz) – In early April 2017, unexpectedly for its fans, NVIDIA announced the release of the next most powerful graphics accelerator in the world – TITAN Xp, thereby “writing off” until recently the most powerful TITAN X Pascal. Why the novelty received the name “Xp” – the company does not explain.

Externally, the new video card completely copies the already mentioned TITAN X Pascal. It is interesting that even the inscription on the case remained the same, and does not have a lowercase “r”, as on the box. The cooling system has not changed either – a radiator with an evaporation chamber, and a fan inherited from the previous “Titan”.
The novelty is based on a full-featured GP102-450-A1 chip of the Pascal graphic architecture, endowed withaboutMore than TITAN X number of stream processors – 3840. The same number of processors has a professional solution Quadro P6000.
NVIDIA TITAN Xp contains 224 texture units. Along with this, the video card is endowed with 96 raster operations units and 11 gigabytes of GDDR5X video memory with a data transfer rate of 11.4 Gb / s. The memory bus width remained the same as that of the “TITAN X” – 384 bits. The bandwidth of the memory subsystem is 547.7 gigabits per second. The boost clock rate is 1582 MHz, which allows processing power to reach 12 TFLOPS.
Power consumption of new items is 250 watts. The manufacturer’s recommended power supply for the system is 600 watts. The video card requires a pair of 6- and 8-pin auxiliary power connectors. The graphics card dimensions are as follows: 4.376 inches high, 10.5 inches long, and 2 slots wide.

According to test results in 3DMark Fire Strike, The superiority of TITAN Xp in performance over the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is approximately 3-5%. And over TITAN X Pascal, on average, up to 10%.
The price tag for NVIDIA TITAN Xp is at the same level as the once TITAN X, namely $1200. In Russian rubles, the cost is 88900. The novelty will be sold only in those markets where it is possible to purchase through the NVIDIA online store. The new model is positioned, first of all, as a video card for professional use, and is aimed at those who are not ready to pay a “tidy” sum for Quadro or Tesla.
