I really, really liked Nvidia’s Titan X. Yes, it carries an exorbitant price tag of $999, but it remains the most powerful single-GPU graphics card on the market and it integrates nicely into everything from super towers to compact mini-ITX builds. But would I sacrifice a paltry 3% of performance and choose “only” 6GB of VRAM if it meant paying $350 less for a nearly identical part? Absolutely! And that’s what makes Nvidia’s new 980 Ti so appealing. (It also means Nvidia’s GTX 980 will see a price reduction down to $499.)
The GTX 980 Ti is a significant step up over the GTX 980, boasting 2816 CUDA Cores. This adds up to 38% more than the GTX 980 for only a 30% higher price tag, but the clincher is how it compares to Titan X. It’s 35% cheaper and only reduces its CUDA Core count by 8%. A few other interesting specifications: The 980 Ti packs in 6GB of VRAM and a 384-bit memory interface running at an effective memory clock of 7GHz; exactly the same as the Titan X.
In my testing, the 980 Ti is between 54% and 62% faster than the 780 Ti (and launching at a cheaper introductory price), which makes Nvidia’s latest flagship a compelling upgrade. For those of you who prefer to wait two generations to upgrade and are likely rocking a GTX 680, the 980 Ti delivers 3x the memory and 3x the performance.
I had originally planned an exhaustive review of the 980 Ti, similar to my 960 and Titan X reviews, but a few time restrictions reared their ugly head this week. That’s why you’re seeing a short and sweet article versus the usual 2000 word monsters.
That’s OK, because honestly the verdict is incredibly straightforward. The 980 Ti is effectively a Titan X with 6GB of VRAM instead of 12GB and – at most — a 3% performance drop in real-world gaming benchmarks. The reality is that 6GB is still a more than adequate frame buffer for 4K gaming (and certainly for 1440p), so for the vast majority of enthusiasts this shouldn’t be a deal breaker. For those upgrading from the 780 Ti’s 3GB of VRAM, of course, it’s probably a deal maker.
Augmented by the power efficiency of Nvidia’s Maxwell architecture, the 980 Ti also has the same 250W TDP as the 780 Ti, giving it a relative performance per watt boost of 2.3x.
Here’s a visual look at just how similar the gaming performance is between the 980 Ti and Titan X:
