NVIDIA TITAN RTX world’s most powerful desktop GPU announced


NVIDIA has introduced NVIDIA TITAN RTX, which is calls the world’s most powerful desktop GPU offering good performance for AI research, data science and creative applications. It is based on NVIDIA Turing architecture, delivers 130 teraflops of deep learning performance and 11 GigaRays of ray-tracing performance.

It delivers:

  • 576 multi-precision Turing Tensor Cores, providing up to 130 teraflops of deep learning performance.
  • 72 Turing RT Cores, delivering up to 11 GigaRays per second of real-time ray-tracing performance.
  • 24GB of high-speed GDDR6 memory with 672GB/s of bandwidth — 2x the memory of previous-generation TITAN GPUs — to fit larger models and datasets.
  • 100GB/s NVIDIA NVLink can pair two TITAN RTX GPUs to scale memory and compute.
  • Incredible performance and memory bandwidth for real-time 8K video editing.
  • VirtualLink port provides the performance and connectivity required by next-gen VR headsets.

It provides multi-precision Turing Tensor Cores for breakthrough performance from FP32, FP16, INT8 and INT4, allowing faster training and inference of neural networks. It offers twice the memory capacity of previous generation TITAN GPUs, along with NVLink to allow researchers to experiment with larger neural networks and data sets. It also delivers the computational horsepower and memory bandwidth needed for real-time 8K video editing.

TITAN RTX is priced at $2,499 (Rs. 1,75,965 approx.) and will be available later this month in the U.S. and Europe.
