NVIDIA Announces TITAN V "Volta" Graphics Card
NVIDIA in a shock move, announced its new flagship graphics card, the TITAN V. This card implements the "Volta" GV100 graphics processor, the same one which drives the company's Tesla V100 HPC accelerator. The GV100 is a multi-chip module, with the GPU die and three HBM2 memory stacks sharing a package. The card features 12 GB of HBM2 memory across a 3072-bit wide memory interface. The GPU die has been built on the 12 nm FinFET+ process by TSMC. NVIDIA TITAN V maxes out the GV100 silicon, if not its memory interface, featuring a whopping 5,120 CUDA cores, 640 Tensor cores (specialized units that accelerate neural-net building/training). The CUDA cores are spread across 80 streaming multiprocessors (64 CUDA cores per SM), spread across 6 graphics processing clusters (GPCs). The TMU count is 320.
The GPU core is clocked at 1200 MHz, with a GPU Boost frequency of 1455 MHz, and an HBM2 memory clock of 850 MHz, translating into 652.8 GB/s memory bandwidth (1.70 Gbps stacks). The card draws power from a combination of 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Display outputs include three DP and one HDMI connectors. With a wallet-scorching price of USD $2,999, and available exclusively through NVIDIA store, the TITAN V is evidence that with Intel deciding to sell client-segment processors for $2,000, it was a matter of time before GPU makers seek out that price-band. At $3k, the GV100's margins are probably more than made up for.

Poor Volta. :P
Tensor cores are 4x4 matrix FP32 FP16 FP16 FP32
The big V100 only has 32 FP64 units same as P100. Not sure if this one has the same or not.

This is one Titan card haters can't say isn't aimed at compute workloads.
You can thank me later.
The Quadro part is always more powerful so who knows how they are positioning the parts until full details come out.
DP monster ? I'd say hardly anything to that degree ...
AMD, on the other hand, absolutely needs custom Vega variants to be released but they're nowhere to be seen.
People bitching that NVIDIA is ripping customers off by charging $3,000 for a graphics card, would be much better served directing their ire at AMD for failing to provide anything resembling competition.
It's safe to say people should be intelligent enough too look at the feature set of this card and realize that it is not meant to go up against any other consumer product currently on the market , not even one from Nvidia's own product stack.
This absolutely blows my 1080 out of the water, 2.15x faster, 1.42x faster than TXp, which is already a powerhouse. I hope we get a gaming variant of this next year. Jumping from a 1080, I would not mind paying $800 or even $900 for a 1180Ti if it's 2x faster.
