I had a feeling that the next shoe to drop was going to be a Titan version of the RTX architecture, and lo and behold this message popped up in my inbox from ZDnet: Nvidia unveils ' world's most powerful' Turing-Powered TITAN RTX desktop GPU It will be interesting to see just how well this one performs compared to the 2080Ti, which I thought I heard mentioned here that was comparable to the Titan of the previous gen, with the RTX everything just took one step upwards. Wonder how long it'll be till one of these shows up on the board doing some crunching?

I wonder how long until they start building ATX format cards, with the CPU as the add-on.
A quad core Titan built for cooling, whew hoo!

yeah they teased this in several prominent Tech YouTube channels.

if they ever unlock the TitanV clock speeds for compute loads, it might still be faster on SETI since it has even more CUDA cores. but this will likely get the clock speed advantage for now
