Nvidia’s Titan X can run Evolve at 74 fps in 4K resolution

Nvidia is formally shipping its Titan X graphics processing unit (GPU) for high-end supercomputing. But it might be best used for running games like 2K’s Evolve at 74 frames a second in 4K resolution.

Jen-Hsun Huang, the chief executive at the world’s largest stand-alone graphics chip maker, talked about the Titan X’s capabilities today at the GPU Technology Conference in San Jose, Calif. The chip is based on the Maxwell architecture that Nvidia launched last year. It has more than 8 billion transistors, compared to the previous year’s Nvidia Titan GPU. The chip is about twice as powerful at running games as the previous version, and it is two times more power efficient.
