It'll sell just fine. Gamers are happy to get up 10% for a hefty price. That has always been nvidia game plan. Get them to buy the XX80, milk them again when XX80 ti comes out, and a third time when the titan comes out.
As long as the titan V is prohibitively expensive compared to the 1080 Ti gamers will buy it up. This is a very good release, it'll be a last rush until the 7nm chips next year, and then we can continue to up charge.
And to be honest, nvidia doesn't have to price it competitively since Amd doesn't have a response. Just drop the prices on the old ones a little bit and add this as a higher end solution.
