iXBT Labs Review: Gigabyte GeForce GTX Titan Graphics Card

Now this seems legit

The capability rating compares each graphics card with GeForce GT 630, which is considered a baseline, or 100%. The rating is based on both synthetic and gaming results and shows, as the name implies, what a product is capable of.

The usability rating is obtained by dividing each card's capability rating by its price. It basically shows whether a given product is over or underpriced, considering what it can do, and thus how reasonable it is to buy it.

Somehow I think matching a GTX Titan up against a GT 630 seems a little unfair, both to the 630 and the respecting public looking to drop a grand on a special edition video card made wholly by nVidia and sent (as a standard package) to their retail partners.

Please keep in mind that video cards are made up of chips and the configuration of those chips can determine performance.  For instance the GTX 690 is a DUAL GPU video card and the GTX Titan is a larger version of the GTX 680.  

Who knows what the GT 630 is but it is needless to say, the Titan is not in the same league.
