Nvidia's Debuts $999 GTX Titan GPU

Today Nvidia introduced its new flagship desktop graphics processor, the GTX Titan. Inspired by the Nvidia-powered Titan supercomputer found in the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the GTX Titan is the company's most powerful single-processor GPU chip to-date, boasting a staggering 2,688 CUDA cores with 6GB of GDDR5 memory.

While the GTX Titan falls short of Nvidia's current crown-jewel, the GTX 690, in terms of raw specs and compute power, it makes huge gains in efficiency. While the GTX 690 drives 3,072 CUDA cores between two on-board GPUs (1,536 cores-per-GPU), the GTX Titan's single GPU features over a thousand additional cores. Subsequently, the GTX Titan requires less power (250w vs. 300w), generates less heat, runs quieter, and can fit in the growing category of compact PCs, such as the iBuyPower Revolt.
