Names used in drivers:
Maxwell: NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X
Pascal 3584: NVIDIA TITAN X (Pascal)
Pascal 3840: NVIDIA TITAN Xp
Thank you, counselor. Makes as much sense as anything I guess.

NVIDIA discord already took to naming it the Titan XPpSome us us already called the "Nvidia Titan X" as "Titan XP" to distinguish it from the "GTX Titan X" which is Maxwell. Now what do we call the old Pascal Titan X?? Such a dilemma!! Convene the council at once!
The fact that they're even bothering to release it. A full die is harder to manufacture than a cut down one.
Also I mean what was Nvidia supposed to do with the full gp102 chips? Sell them in a cut down 1080ti? Why? That leaves $500 on the table. Of course this chip was coming and it has nothing to do with Vega. Amd has so many concerns below the$750 price tag before they get concerned with Nvidia halo product.It's NVIDIA making sure it has something to actually sell for $1200. Remember, OG Titan Xp is now pointless with 1080 Ti around so if they want people to spend $$$, they needed to update the Titan Xp.
I don't think it has to do with Vega.

Yup, that's why I still would have Nvidia at a strong buy even after their strong run up. They can quadruple dip.... That's amazing.Nvidia gives enthusiasts so much choice! This is a quadruple dipping generation :O
I might buy one of these. I'm tired of waiting for the aftermarket GTX 1080 Tis to become available (they're always sold out) and the Zotac Amp Extreme edition that I always buy isn't even for sale yet.
Buying one of these cards isn't as bad investment an investment as you'd think. Assuming you take good care of it, it will hold most of its value when it comes time to sell it.
The only thing is the high initial cost.
At least with this one you know its the true flagship of Pascal and wont be topped until big Volta
well right GV104 will probably be a little faster....what I mean was for big die buyers on the ti/titan cycle. whatever GV104 is over full GP102 won't be enough for most of those buyers.The Titan X was topped by 1080 (arguably 1070 in some cases / clocks) which was the first release for Pascal. Why wouldn't the first Volta release top this?

Well they could release a consumer version of GP100 if they really wanted to. Perhaps that's their next move once everyone has ditched their recently acquired 1080 Ti's in favor of Titan Xp cards. I don't know how cut those dies were, but I recall that they weren't offering a full die there either and the HBM2 gives it a massive edge in terms of memory bandwidth over GP102.

This is what happens with a monopoly! It's getting really really bad.Man, Nvidia sure knows how to continue the milking.
I see lots of people upgrading from 980ti to 1080,then from 1080 to 1080Ti, and now probably from 1080Ti to this. Lots of crazy people. Can't really blame nvidia for this.Yeah I miss the days of ATI x800/HD4xxx/HD5xxx series when we had full fat cards released at one go instead of a midrange card like the 1080 selling for 699. Can't blame Nvidia though as they are making full use of their monopoly
I noticed some people, for whatever reason, went from Titan X Pascal to 1080 Ti. To me, that's a downgrade. I'm going for the new Titan Xp from Titan X Pascal.
titan xp wtf. What am I supposed to call my old pascal titan x?
