Nvidia Titan Xp introduced as 'the world's most powerful graphics card'

Nvidia has revealed its new Titan, the Xp. It features 3840 Cuda cores running at 1.6GHz, and 12GB of DDR5X memory. The card runs on Nvidia's Pascal architecture and comes with a suitably titanic price tag of $1200 / £1,159. It's available now on the Nvidia site.

"They made 1080 Ti so fast that they need a new top-tier Titan," says PC Gamer hardware expert Jarred Walton. "It's the full GP102 chip, so just like we had GTX 780, the Titan, the 780 Ti and the Titan Black, we're getting the 1080, Titan X (Pascal), 1080 Ti, and Titan Xp."

We'll try to get the Xp into the testing chambers as quickly as possible to see if it really is the fastest GPU on the planet. Meanwhile here are the full specifications via the official Nvidia site. It seems quite fast.
