The GTX Titan X owners thread.

[Klunt Bumskrint]

I lol'd, a 1080 won't destroy a TX get out your dream land, the 1080 they showed was the "founders" card O/C'd at 2100mhz, I bet they benched it agasint a stock titan, and even then it only beat it by a few fps. No 1080 256 bus at any clock speed will beat my TX hybrid @ 1550MHZ, would love to see the 1080 handle 4k as well.



Agree'd no BS in this post.



It won't so don't worry about it.



End of the day "us" people bought a TX over a year ago cause we wanted the best, be it cause we wanted 4k or whatever, but we had the best card for over 12 months. I'm guessing it'll still be unbeated in 4k gaming.
We don't worry about loosing money, we'll go and buy the next TX as well. If a mid range card is all you can afford then great, enjoy it. We'll enjoy our top end cards and the 12 months we had a better experience thannnn yauuuuu.

Idjit you are. Keep on taking your medication. There's no way they will go for that little. I reckon 50% more at least.



Seriously, the Titan is still a bit faster than a Ti, more desirable and less mainstream and still faster for specific purposes with that 12Gb memory which is at least one thing the two cards do not exceed. With 2 or more owners are future proofed for a while but have the option of selling up and getting a 1080 for little or no outlay or of course holding onto them until the next Titan or Ti. No idea about second hand prices but reckon it should be a sub £500 card new now although stocks are probably low of them anyway so if a demand is still there who knows - just need to be all sold by the end of the month I suppose.

I had a TX for about 6 months(EVGA SC). If I still had it I dunno if I'd just keep it right now or what. If I had two I think I'd just hold on.
Although I fancy the new tech, if I saw TX's new for an attractive price now I'd be tempted to pick up two, specifically the SC's as I cant be ar*** overclocking

Price to Performance and now resell value.. Ouch!!!

I think Nvidia have a massive cheek tbh if you spend close to £1000 on a GPU you expect that to last has the flagship until its Titan X 2 or something, Nope they release 980ti that hurts resell abit and then announce your mid range GPU is faster??

Am sorry but I feel sick just reading it and I dont own a GPU that cost close to £1000 not so long ago..

Shankly, All that you said is absolute rubbish. And I have lost all respect that I had for you with the post above.

You are here just to cause trouble, and you don't feel sick at all at the drop in price.

Nobody that purchased the Titan X is worried about the resale value. And It's been over a year since the Titan X was released and it will be another month before the new cards are available.

Why should these people who have had their cards over a year be unhappy? The new mid range cards seem to be a huge leap forward. The guys who can afford to buy Titan cards are probably delighted with the performance improvement, I know I would be, because it means the next Titan card will be a monster performer.

It's the same with any graphics card you buy, if you are worried about the resale value, then you can't afford that card and should buy something cheaper. There are no guarantees.

Your post is just a mean spirited post designed to cause trouble. I honestly didn't think you could stoop so low.

Coming into an owners thread just to rub their faces in it. How pathetic are you?

We all know GPUs kill the price on older GPUs that is a fact. Its how Nvidia has done this that I find odd. I guess the have the money to gamble on these things

When you buy something High-end like the TitanX at £900-1000 You expect the next card to be topping it is the Next Titan!
Not a Mid range GPU the year after! That is just Madness, it DONT matter if you Mr Rich its the principle and how it should be.

This goes for any lineup.

TBH i'd hope the mid range does bet the old gen flagship
Would you rather a market where we are drip fed tiny improvement ? or one in which there is a large improvement ?
I prefer the large gain, maybe others dont and are used to tiny jumps like the cpu market offers

 

[Born_2_Kill_83]

Either way the performance of the 1080 is good, but why, amd have something comming? NV don't normally spoil us like this.

Not coming here to cause any trouble at all Am coming in here and speaking my mind on the matter, Nothing more and nothing less!

I dont care about resell value either matter fact my last two GPUs I give away free to family 7950 and 290x Zero Profit.
My family get all my unwanted hardware.

What gets me is how Nvidia are killing off the TitanX with a Mid range GPU that is why am here. I just dont understand it!
It seems you all perfectly happy with Paying £900-1000 to have a GPU year later beat it costing less than half the price..

Like I said am not here to cause any trouble FACT am here to speak my own mind, no point even replying back to me if you dont agree then fair enough move on.

No I do agree! We all want faster and better, but I expect the GPU that I buy to be beaten by the next GPU in that line up. Not by a lower tier lineup.

 

[ironcross13]

It's already been said that a 1070 beats a Titan X. So a GTX1080 should literally destroy a Titan X buy at least 30% to 40% we've been told? Hope to have proper numbers right before launching of new series. Nobody here ( Including the OCUK know it all's ) knows exact numbers until reviews are in?

Really i dont see a 1070 beating a T-X... 1080 30/40% faster i really dont see this maybe 20% max.. But i do hope 30-40% at 4K then i will sell my T-X and buy one when the hybrid is out.. then if it was 30-40% faster think how fast the Titan X-2 or 1080ti would be

 

[queamin]

1080 is a 080 class gpu like the 680,780,980 if the price is $699 for founders gpu what will 1080ti and titan X pascal cost that is what shankly is saying I think.

 

[triss]

Being beaten by a lower tier line up just shows a bigger jump which is good IMO. Its a bit like i hope the Polaris 10 to bet fury and vegas to be a large chunk above that again , Bigger gains are better for us all and more fun

I had 2 Titan Xs for 13 months since they first released..
My bottem ASUS card was in SLI i sold about 2 weeks ago. I knew the new cards was coming and did not use SLI much so sold it.. i paid 940 sold after ebay fees for £720 so a loss of 240 in over a year not much for over one years use.. Even if my first card blew up i still got 13 months use from it so like £65 a month so worth it for me to game in 4K with the fastest card for 14 months

Now i have 1 Titan X hybrid that i am happy with and not in a rush to upgrade.. I want to See 4K benches of T-X max over clock V 1080 Max over clock then we can see how much faster it is..

Resale well the Titan Black is selling for £350 on ebay still cheapest on there..
The Titans will always hold there money.. a lot of people would rather buy a 2ed T-X then 2 new 1080s as it works out cheaper..

 

[ironcross13]

also i think any one using a Titan X or 980ti for 1080p really have waste there money as its total over kill.. also if any one is buying a 1080 for 1080p gaming is really not thinking straight

I run a ti for 1080p, for mainly bf4 and battlefront. 150% res scaling and an overclock of 1500/8000 gives me about 100 fps in battlefront, more in battlefield but with more drops. On my 120 hz monitor that seems about right to me

Is the new 1080 that good that you have to come into a Titan x owners thread to try to wind people up?

This thread is for owners of the titan x or people interested in the Titan x, not someone with a grudge. Sometimes it's best to keep 'your opinion' to yourself.

 

[Sasahara]

No I do agree! We all want faster and better, but I expect the GPU that I buy to be beaten by the next GPU in that line up. Not by a lower tier lineup.

The reason why the Titan X is being beaten by the Mid range GPU is it shouldn't have been a 28nm fab GPU, it was. Anyone that is paying that much for a extreme GPU should do research a realise it was due a short lifespan at the top of the tree with the 16nm imminent and will lose value.

But unless you intend to stop PC gaming you haven't lost out. If you feel (after we see true benchmarks) the 1080 is a better option, sell the Titan, buy the 1080. There will be Titan buyers for 4k SLI, so it's resale price should be around the same as a new 1080. (There aren't that my Titans to begin with so the price isn't going to drop massively.)

The 980Ti will lose more value, but again it's relative. Sell the Ti spend £50 on a 1070 if you think it's better (Sell now and you might get a 1070 for the same price or less), or £200 on a 1080 if we do get a 30% performance increase.

If you don't think the upgrade cost are worth it, don't sell, you no worse off.

Here's a rough snap shot of how long NVidia top card have lasted before they have been beaten by other NVidia Cards.

GeForce GTX 480, March 26, 2010
GeForce GTX 580, November 9, 2010 (228 days)
GeForce GTX 680, March 22, 2012 (500 days)

GeForce GTX Titan, February 21, 2013 (Not released as a gaming card) (337 days)

GeForce GTX 780, May 23, 2013 (427 days from 680, not Titan)
GeForce GTX 780 Ti, November 7, 2013 (168 days)
GeForce GTX 980, September 18, 2014 (315 days)

GeForce GTX Titan X, March 17, 2015 (This time a gaming focused card) (180 days)

GeForce GTX 980 Ti, June 1, 2015 (272 days from 980, 92 days Titan X)

GeForce GTX 1080, May 27, 2016 (361 from 980Ti days)
GeForce GTX 1070, June 10, 2016 (375 days from 980Ti)

Looking at that, that a reasonable life span before being superseded. And in most cases the 2nd top card (670 etc.) were around the performance of the previous top tier card.

No, if it was somebody who didn't know anything about GPUs I might believe this, but you are not new to this.

Nvidia have said from the start that the Titan range of cards are outside their normal pricing structure, that they are a niche product. And We have seen this with every Titan release, their price doesn't drop no matter what cards are released. The only cards that cause Titan's to drop in price are the next Titan cards.

The other point, that you keep choosing to ignore, is that people who buy a Titan card don't care about future resale value. They also don't care about the performance of a card that's going to be released over a year later.

And it will be 14 months since the release of the Titan X by the time the Pascal cards are released. 14 months!! Not only do we have a new process but a die shrink as well. And you are sitting there pretending that you don't know the difference a die shrink makes.

You also know that for every die shrink so far, the mid range cards have been faster than the previous generation's high end card.

Titan cards are prestige products, they aren't value for money and they don't fit in the normal lineup. It's an exclusive card.

But again you know all this.

Titan x owners don't need your fake sympathy or your pretend ignorance. Most of them are quite happy with their purchase.

Two things really annoy me about this. If the new mid range Pascal cards didn't perform well you would be first in line to complain about it.

Second this is the Titan X owners thread, you would never, ever consider buying a Titan x. Why would you even come into this thread?

No, there is only one reason why you posted here, and that is to go "hahahaha look at a mid range card beating the Titan X"

As I said Pathetic. Now you don't bother replying because you know I am right.

 

[Radox-0]

Don't know about others but I am glad the 1080 is better then my Titan x's. The more it demolishes it the better I say as any upgrade will be the better for it, progress is always a good thing. In the meantime does not detract from the performance the card offers, it's no longer King of the hill, but still hell of a powerful card.

 

[Kaapstad]

I don't know what all the fuss is about, the 1080(s) won't kill off the Titan Xs as they do different jobs.

1. You can use up to 4 TXs in SLI compared to 2 way SLI for the 1080

2. 12gb of VRAM trumps 8gb at high resolution in a mGPU setup.

Having said that when the full fat Pascal cards arrive next year it will be a different story.

 

[ironcross13]

Titan X has been at the top for 14 months by the time the 1080 is out..

The resale value is not that important people can sell now on ebay for £600 after fees and still had 13 months use from this card.. had the enjoyment of the fastest card in the world for that time..
