HBM2 vs Xp's G5X. So it will be far faster. That said, I understand your frustration with the amount. They need to move on up - but then..... RAM prices are ridiculous right now. This is the full fat GV100 chip, too (as Maxwell was with GM200). So no Titan Black/Xp situation for Volta. It's going to be a substantial leap over Pascal. |
The Titan V's HBM2 is going to provide 653GB/s of bandwidth.
The Titan XP's GDDR5X is pushing 547GB/s.
That is a bandwidth increase of 19.3%.
Single precision compute is up by 14%... But double precision has increased by a massive 1,715%.
Tensor Cores could also be big.

I'm still using a GTX960 which I bought almost two years ago for £150 and it runs everything I play silky smooth at 60fps on high/ultra settings, some games I have to mess with a few things, like turn the AA down etc. but it's good enough for me, lol. |
It is because this GPU is absolutely monolithic and thus stupidly expensive to manufacture at 21.1B transistors.
To put that in perspective... The Xbox One X has 7~ Billion transistors.
Combine that with stupidly expensive HBM2 memory... And it was never going to be $199.
| CGI-Quality said: I was also wrong about the chip. It's the cut down V102 (unlike the Tesla V100). Meaning, there will most likely be a Titan V-Black sometime in 2019. Full, fat V102, 12GB HBM2, 6K CUDA Cores. |
I would not be surprised if it had 7680 or 6144 Cuda cores. AMD and nVidia like to stick with powers-of-8 unit counts.
