What does $3,000 US buy you in terms of gaming performance on the PC in 2018 We are about to find out. We've got the Volta GPU powered NVIDIA TITAN V video card in-house, tested in thirteen games at 1440p and 4K, oh and we even overclocked it, just because.

First and foremost, the NVIDIA TITAN V is not a gaming-oriented video card. This is extremely important to differentiate the market segment the NVIDIA TITAN V is positioned for. The NVIDIA TITAN V at $2,999.00 is positioned for the professional workstation-class video card in the GPU-Compute environment, Deep Learning, AI and Cloud Computing. It packs a ton of CUDA Cores and a ton of Tensor Cores inside to play the role of a powerful GPU-Compute Supercomputer Accelerator. However, it can also game.

Up until now the TITAN line has ridden the edge between a gaming video card and a cheaper workstation-class GPU-Compute video card for professionals. Well it seems NVIDIA has finally got its act together and separated TITAN completely from the gaming GeForce GTX brand and firmly planted it in the ground of being a Supercomputer GPU-Compute accelerator video card. Finally, the naming structure is not confusing, TITAN V is clearly a successor to all other NVIDIA TITAN video cards.
