NVIDIA dropped a bomb a couple of weeks back and shocked almost everyone in the enthusiast community with the surprise announcement of the new, Pascal-based TITAN X. If you missed our original coverage, the story went something like this: NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang lost a bet, and out of the blue went and gave away a few TITAN X cards at a special AI event that was taking place at Stanford University. That may sound a little far-fetched, but the way this launch shook out, it seems somewhat plausible.

Regardless, as soon as the announcement was posted, we?re sure many of you had two questions in mind ? how fast is it? And what's the deal with the GP102? Thankfully, we can answer both of those questions and more for you today...
