Titan is not like ares mate. Its a reference card and is not limited edition. It will be sold just like 680 and 690.
Brilliantly put mate.
Affordability varies from person to person.A guy who can afford a 7970 cf or even a 7950cf won't mind going for a single titan. Manufacturers make gpu's from a global perspective and not only for indian markets.
My brother who's currently in singapore working in wipro tech said half of his colleagues and some singaporean friends had a 7970 cf and he had the least horsepower ( 955be +6850 cyclone).
I honestly don't think the titan to be a niche product. Its sure expensive for most but will find a lot of buyers imo.
Yeah this is true too. Competition might bring down the price a couple of notches.
But nvidia rarely drops prices like amd does.

So...its gonna be not that costly as aries but is from same generation of keplar.Does its come with dx 11.1. I know some of the features of dx can be emulated in software..but still does it come with it or not.
When is the refresh of new age cards coming out ?
Is it really the refresh or old things packed in new cartons????

Well its different, first it has all the compute engines enabled, so no more lag in compute, like maya etc(unless they cripple it in drivers), not sure about DX11.1 but some features of DX11.1 can be achieved with DX11 hardware, DX11.1 is more like a forced specification, don't see games using it much, just like DX10.1, only a few games like HAWX etc ever used it.

I was to know......there was a mentioned of ray tracing features in directx 11.....i see no mentioned in dx11 & dx11.1....
Will it be implemented in future revisions of dx11.
Is this already implemented in southern islands & keplar.
Or next gen would able to handle ray tracing better.....!
I meant something developed using this accelerators will have a hard time on our current lineup of gpu's
I stumbled upon this news on tech-powerup about ray tracing accelerators for imagination....here have a look and i dont think our current lineup of gpu's have dedicated ray tracing chip embedded.

Ray tracing does not need dedicated hardware, GPUs could do this through OpenCL or CUDA, but not in real time, you could do it, if you had nVidia hardware: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/graphic-cards/142998-nvidia-design-garage-thread-raytracing-made-easy.html
And real time ray tracing is still impossible on consumer hardware, even the Tesla GPU's can't do it, huge amount of processing power needed, and due to that its useless to include a dedicated ray tracing pathway in direct X.
Intel tried to pull it off with Larabee, but we all know how that turned out, maybe by 2018 ray tracing will be available to run in generic consumer hardware and if news are to be believed intel will probably make the breakthrough, they had been pushing that envelope forever.

I know it does not need a dedicated hardware but it would surely increase computational load on the gpu....
I was reading topics on ray tracing.....Nvidia had been developing ray tracing engine under the name of "OPTIX"...they demonstrated that in 2009.
It is being used for real time applications...so i think it might be feature point in upcoming or next gen hardware...!
We will see that in effect by 2015...i hope coz the realism using ray tracing is awesome....though in still image but its awesome....

Optix is not hardware, its an engine and Design garage runs on Optix(check: *developer.nvidia.com/optix-interactive-examples ), afaik no one except intel is trying to make dedicated ray tracing hardware(larabee), nVidia wants everything to be done via CUDA, amd doesn't have r&d budget so its only intel who's left, since next gen consoles will have rasterization, its expected that except intel no one will even try to make ray tracing hardware and also no games will be made because be frank, who will make a pc exclusive game using a new engine which will not run on consoles, and there are no commercial real time ray tracing game engine made or in development. Maybe after 2020, the hardware will come by 2018, but except for designer studios no one will use them, certainly not game developers(maybe one or two sponsored game by intel), our fates had been sealed with next gen consoles.

Actually i said its an engine...read second line in the para again....!
As said PC gaming's fate is sealed by consoles.....but that didnt stop crytek from making crysis on dx10 hardware...though dx10 was a dud but they made a wonderful game,
There will be many studios who will try something new at some point of time, Ray tracing would be a far fetch idea for real time (games,apps) but there could be a alternative in the near future for it.
You never know.

I will get one of these one day, doesn't matter if I have to live on the streetsGeForce GTX Titan Inbound, Already Listed at Online Retailer
Here comes the Titan.........

Your system would choke it, 2600k pfftAnd I will get the one from you, when you will sell it at 15k.

And I will beat you up and take your Titan away

dont worry tkin, i will fetch it back you...once am back to India i'll definitely have one...for serious. Also I'm learning Indonesian martial art to counter "PatolDanga" jutsu....

Sapphire released new TriXX version 4.6................ It didnt solved my hd7950 vapor-x problem with vcore over/under volting...other hd7950 vapor-x owners can try it out.
Still Its a good overclocking utility for all Amd gpu's.........Link below:-

^^ Nope its not. Msi afterburner is the best along with evga precision coz both share the riva-tuner engine.
You can try afterburner mate. Its on par or even better than asus gpu tweak.
