News NVIDIA Shows TITAN X at Epic Games Keynote

Ryan Shrout on PCPer has this to say on the stealth announcement:

For those of you worried that GDC would sneak by without any new information for NVIDIA's GeForce fans, Jen-Hsun Huang surprised everyone by showing up at the Epic Games' keynote with Tim Sweeny to hijack it. The result: the first showing of the upcoming GeForce TITAN X based on the upcoming Maxwell GM200 GPU.

JHH stated that it would have a 12GB frame buffer and would included 8 billion transistors! There wasn't much more information than that, but I was promised that the details would be revealed sooner rather than later.

Prior rumors positively identified the 12GB frame buffer, and suggested a $1,349 price point, though this has yet to be confirmed.

Blower style? This thing must be so power efficient and probably loud.

GTX 980 has 5.2B transistor, this has 8B so 50% more.
Expecting 50% more performance for 50% more power, so you would imagine this card to have a TDP of 225W(2x6pin) or 300W(1x 6pin + 1x8pin) depending on clocks

I'm still waiting for them to make a "GTX 990" with two GM204 cores - the efficiency of GTX 980 just *begs* for two of them to be slapped together on one card
