Gotta see how this and the 390x stacks up. I will make a decision then.

Very disappointing. For once I wish the Titan name meant something. In 3 months this will be crushed by the 390X.

For it to deserve the name "Titan" it should absolutely tower over all other cards.

It is a Titan it's the largest GPU ever made at 601mm².

I also wouldn't bet that the 390X will beat it, not at all.

How much you want to bet?

I'm calling it now!

The R9 390X won't beat the Titan X ...

I'm in a BIG dilemma...

Based on what was speculated about the 390X, I was definetly going to get 2 of those until NV Pascal came out, but now...I had no idea some games were starting to use more than 8GB of VRAM.Surprisingly even the 390X will not be enough for 4k,which leaves the Titan X as the only option.I'm very reluctant to pull the trigger on it though, but now I feel like my 780tis are ageing so much every second it passes.

Going to wait for the 390x, I expected more from the Titan line.

A waste of money for most gamers like the model before it.

8.5GB of VRAM for Advanced Warfare in 4k is just insane. Isn't that more than the 390x even has?

It's probably just the super sampling that's causing the increase in memory consumption ...

SSAA at 4K is pretty redundant when there's hardly any available jaggies ...

0.5 GB more I believe.

Far out, and to think not so long ago most games barely went over what, like 2GB of VRAM?
