Nvidia's next-gen Pascal GPU will offer 10x the performance of Titan X, 8-way SLI

If Nvidia's beastly new Titan X graphics card wows you—and it should—well, hold onto your pants: The company said it's next-gen GPU technology, codenamed Pascal, will offer roughly ten times the performance of the Titan X, at least in compute tasks.

The next-generation GPU from Nvidia would also offer a host of new technologies, including 3D-stacked memory and NVLink, said CEO Jen-Hsun Huang during the GPU Technology Conference's keynote in San Jose. The GPU will essentially be a super computer, Huang said, and Nvidia is shooting for it to be ten times faster than today's Maxwell-based GPUs.

Ten times faster then a TitanX at compute, shouldn't be too difficult, just pick a FP64 test and watch Pascal fly.

Not needed, anything that matches a ps4/xb1 is going to be more than enough going forward.

I wish lol. Don't forget how much optimisation goes into a ported game lol. Usually need 2 - 3 times the power of a current gen console to run slightly better than it with slightly better graphics.
 
They don't mean 10x the framerate in GTA.

They are calculating raw flops in a maximum NVLink configuration running a CFD simulation for a lab somewhere. Of course someone already noted above that GM200 has very reduced DP power by design... this is why people say NV are dishonest.

If I had to guess I'd say GP100 will be 80% faster than GM200.

If NVIDIA do their historical milking, the small chip GP100 will be 50% faster than TX max. Have to wait till the next Titan on GP200 to get anything like 70%+ faster than the Titan X for a pricey sum. NVIDIA don't do balls out GPUs to the masses, not at first anyway. They do making profits by the bucket load.
 
Damn this MM I keep hearing about...must be the most exclusive club in the world...1000 posts is a high bar...do they have to be quality posts? LOL

The MM is the most magical place on Earth (GabeN approves). Where thousands of Titan Xs go for 100 a pop and X99 systems are sold for under 200 (P&P included)

Q1 target release date, I suspect this will only be for Teslas as AMD will have 6+ months of Fiji Firepros by then so they need an answer.

Awesome, I'm expecting Pascal and whatever comes after Fiji to make all the current stuff looked dated and slow in comparison.

Hopefully AMD getting to HBM first will light a fire under Nvidia to get Pascal out sooner rather than later.

Doubt it - nVidia are working towards putting HBM on their GPUs that actually need it rather than rushing to stick it on their 28nm cards that don't desperately require it.
