It's a Titan card because of its name, but not by its specs.

And people expected the new Titan to feature HBM because all Titan cards so far have come straight from Nvidia's highest chip (GK110, GM200) and Nvidia's current highest chip is the GP100 which features HBM 2.0.

What I do agree, tho, is that performance will be what settles this discussion and if the card deserves its price.

Depends who you're talking to. There are plenty people who would snuff the price even if it was 50% faster.

But that's the point, this Titan costs twice as much as a 1080 so it has to offer quite a lot in terms of performance to be worth* the price.

*worth is a relative, and very subjective, term. For some people spending $600 every year or 18 months in a new GPU is reasonable and perfectly ok, to me that's... madness.
