54th, I stand by my statement and I don't sugar coat these things either as you can see. I see that you have a Titan, which would give you a reason to feel miffed about it if you took it the wrong way. Rest assured I wasn't directing this comment at you specifically.
Look, Titan is actually slightly less of a compute card than 780 Ti for the simple reason the GPU is crippled. The only reason that it's "better" at compute functions is because NVIDIA have artificially crippled the 780 Ti in the driver to protect sales of their crippled $1000 card. Hack the driver (or convince NVIDIA to remove the performance loss! lol) and the 780 Ti will handily beat Titan on this, to. It has too, because it's got the full GPU, with both GPU and memory running at higher clock speeds than Titan. Ok, it's got half the memory, but does that matter so much even for compute? I dunno, but I'll bet that extra 3GB doesn't actually cost that price difference to put on and don't forget the crippled GPU and slower clocks too, lowering the price difference. Titan should actually be cheaper than 780 Ti, not the other way round. Finally, the original compute card, the K20 or whatever it's called, has the full GK110 while Titan doesn't.
Yeah, it was named after a supercomputer called Titan. Very convenient for marketing, no?
Gamers who bought Titan were gullible, because it was quite obvious from the start that in a few months NVIDIA would bring out a better, uncrippled card (you can tell I really don't like crippled GPUs can't you? lol).
Ok, I'll give you a let in that some people have money to spare and wanted the fastest thing on earth
now in some cases and didn't give a damn that there would be a better version at a cheaper price in a few months' time. Fair play there, but I think most people that bought a Titan didn't see this coming and were cought out.
