Nvidia has announced the ‘Nvidia Titan X’, a video card with the GP102 GPU that is based on the Pascal architecture. The card will be released on August 2 for $1,200 and will then be the most powerful video card in Nvidia’s lineup.

Nvidia has for the Nvidia Titan X 3584 cudacores enabled on the GP102 GPU, significantly more than the GP104 of the GTX 1080 and as much as the GP100 of the upcoming Tesla P100 accelerator. The clock speed of the card is 1417MHz with a boost to a maximum of 1531MHz.

The GPU communicates via a 384-bit wide bus with 12GB gddr5x memory. This makes it the second card after the GTX 1080 that Nvidia equips with gddr5x, which is faster than gddr5. The interfaces of the card are displayport 1.4, hdmi 2.0b and dl-dvi.

With its suggested retail price of $1200, the card is more expensive than previous Titan cards. The previous card in the series, the GTX Titan X, was released by Nvidia for $1,000. The card is also $500 more expensive than the GTX 1080 Founders Edition.

Nvidia released the first Titan in 2013. The cards are intended for demanding gamers but are also used for workstations.
