Nvidia BigK GK110 Kepler Speculation Thread

Preorders seem to be available in Scandinavia from a Asus GeForce GTX Titan. Price is as idiotically high as so far rumored and let's hope it's just a pre-order tendency and not the real final MSRP.
 
Do you have a link? How much is it?

Never mind. Quite expensive. Hopefully it will settle around 800 or so.

You are stating it's fake because GPU-Z, which is a hand-written database, is not recognizing the actual die size of the chipset?

If the size in the screenshot doesn't match the number in the database (which should be the same that we "know" from elsewhere) it's pretty much faked.
But you nailed it yourself pretty definitely with that photo, nice find :)

Which is basicly the same price as the gtx690.

As someone mentionned it, there's no real luck to see this shop have any information for pre order, their date of launch 18.2.2013 is the US President day, Nvidia will never launch a card this same day lol .

Now 16-17 is the week end so it let maybe the next complete week,..
 
I apologize for not providing a link in my former post. In any case it's a dead link now. I have severe doubts that it's going to be priced less initially. For Europe I'd expect a range between 850 and 950 Euros depending on case. That said it better end up being about 50% faster than the GTX680 on average, otherwise I fear the criticism will add to the Titan quickly an -ic and definitely not unjustified.
 
For those who missed the link: ComputerBase (English translation) has a screenshot of the Proshop listing.

It seems that the card will actually be called "GTX Titan" so it looks like NVIDIA is not using the standard numbering for those cards (or the numbering is considerably deemphasized).

50%? More like >125% and we're talking. Perf/price continues to get worse with this...
 
Tesla K20 Beats a Dual GPU Configuration in Password Cracking

The K20 is the lower clocked 320 bit 5 GB model and at least for this application it is 50% faster than the GTX690 dual GPU card.

http://www.brightsideofnews.com/new...l-gpu-configuration-in-password-cracking.aspx

The company compared the Tesla K20 5GB to the dual-GK104 board, the GeForce GTX 690 4GB, and discovered that 2496 cores inside the K20 were more than a match for 3072 cores on the GTX 690, even though those cores were clocked much higher than ones on the K20.

According to the slide above, you can see that going with the K20 instead of GTX 690 yields a 50% performance improvement over the dual-GPU configuration.

The rumors of the Titan has it being more like the K20X but higher clocked so it looks like compute will be impressive.

Impressive compared to?

If we look at Wireless Security Auditor, ElcomSoft's most popular tool the situation changes slightly, as a single K20 delivers 85,000 passwords per second, compared to the 65,000 on the GTX 690. Then again, Nvidia still lags behind AMD, as the three year old Radeon HD 5970 handles 103,000 passwords per second, and HD 6990 increased that to 129,000. In that aspect, not even the K20 can reach performance achieved by a single consumer AMD card. This is also the reason why a sea of secy agencies went forward and acquired AMD Radeon HD 5990 and HD 6990 cards, instead of going professional with the Tesla and FirePro cards. AMD now has a dual-GPU card for professionals and we were told the results blew the competition out of the water and are one of major reasons why AMD never released the consumer version of the card.

I count 12 chips... 2 on the left-hand side of the GPU, 4 on top and 5 on right-hand side. Rather odd layout, may be fake of course, but why fake something really odd, doesn't make sense. You'd want to fake a believable, traditional layout, unless of course you'd fake it oddly, thinking that people wouldn't expect a faker to do an odd layout since it would be less believable, and thus be more credible...! *ahem* :LOL:

Anyhow I wouldn't dismiss presence of a heatspreader as signs of fakery though, bunches of other cards have used them, including the GTX 280 IIRC. Or maybe that was just a plastic PCB guard, it was so long ago now. :) Anyway, heatspreaders on reference AMD caymans, and many 3rd party cards, so... :p
 
All the big GPUs from NV, since G80, were capped with heat-spreader. Tesla "byproducts" are exception, for some reason.
