NVIDIA Ships GeForce GTX Titan Black; Cards From Add-In Partners Available Now!
NVIDIA has launched its new GeForce GTX Titan Black GPU with little fanfare. Add-in card partners like ASUS, EVGA, Gigabyte and Palit have made their GTX Titan Black-based graphics cards available.
The new GeForce GTX Titan Black graphics card features some modest updates, in comparison with its predecessor, the GeForce GTX Titan. For a start, the new GTX Titan Black, like the GTX 780 Ti, features a fully-unlocked GK110 graphics core that is in its revision B. The GTX Titan Black has a base clock speed of 889MHz, up from GTX Titan’s base clock of 835MHz. The new graphics card’s memory modules are rated to operate at 7000MHz, versus the 6000MHz clock speed of the GTX Titan. They still have the same 384-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface. Listed below are the cards from ASUS, EVGA, Gigabyte, and Palit.
One of the first cards to hit the local market is the ASUS GeForce GTX Titan Black that has a princely sum of S$1,629. Like all high-end cards from ASUS, it comes bundled with the company's proprietary GPU Tweak software utility.

Bringing up the rear is the Palit GeForce GTX Titan Black. It appears the only thing that differentiates all the Titan Blacks is the package box for each card, and for the case of EVGA, the bundled freebies.
