Titan is a new architecture, it's going to take time (Think months) for the drivers to tap some extra performance out of it, heck I would pitch my system to be what, 4-5x faster just for the graphics?

Sorry to dissapoint you but the Titan architecture was released in early 2012... it is the same Kepler already existent in profissional market.. why some guys here say Titan is a new arch???

GK110 almost had one year... Titan is part of Kepler Architecture like GTX 680... nothing new here... the Tesla GPU was already using the Titan GPU since May 2012.

The new nVidia Architecture, Maxwell, is to be released in 2014.

Titan is old/current tech.

Well technically it is. It's a SKU that wasn't in the consumer market.
My point still stands though, Titan has 25-50% more resources than the GTX 680 and it will take time for things like the memory management system, on-the-fly shader compiler etc' to fully take advantage of that extra grunt in the drivers.

And heck. Titan still isn't even a fully functional GPU, it still has an entire SMX disabled.
