Nvidia’s $3,000 dual-GPU Titan Z graphics card may hit the market May 28

nvidias 3000 dual gpu titan z graphics card will reportedly hit market may 28 nvidia 970x0

According to Videocardz.com, Nvidia will finally release its dual-GPU Titan Z graphics card next week, on May 28.

Initially, the Nvidia GeForce GTX Titan Z was supposed to be released on April 29, but its launch was pushed back to May 8, and it missed that date as well.

Spearheaded by a pair of Kepler GPUs, 12GB of RAM, and 5,760 processing cores, the Titan Z will likely require a beastly cooling setup to prevent it from melting your rig.

Though it’s unclear what speed the Titan Z ‘sGPUs will run at, we at least have a point of comparison to work with. Nvidia’s Titan Black, which uses the same Kepler GPU that will be stuffed in the Titan Z, has a rated clock speed of 889MHz. To give you an idea of what the Titan Z’s performance could be like, the $1,000 Titan Black – which is a monster in its own right – has half the RAM and processing cores. Just think: two Titan Black cards, functioning as one.

Will the third time be the charm? We only have to wait less than a week to find out. Even if it does see the light of day, we’re unsure how the Titan Z will fare in the dual-GPU high-end graphics card market, considering that the AMD Radeon R9 295X2, which we reviewed, likely offers similar performance at half the price ($1,500).

Trying to buy a GPU in 2023 almost makes me miss the shortage
Two AMD Radeon RX 7000 graphics cards on a pink surface.

The days of the GPU shortage are long over, but somehow, buying a GPU is harder than ever -- and that sentiment has very little to do with stock levels. It's just that there are no obvious candidates when shopping anymore.

In a generation where no single GPU stands out as the single best graphics card, it's hard to jump on board with the latest from AMD and Nvidia. I don't want to see another GPU shortage, but the state of the graphics card market is far from where it should be.
This generation is all over the place

While the laptop industry continues to move toward 14-inch laptops and larger, the 13-inch laptop remains an important category. One of the best is the Apple MacBook Air M2, with an extremely thin and well-built chassis, great performance, and incredibly long battery life.

Lenovo has recently introduced the third generation of its ThinkPad X1 Nano, one of the lightest laptops we've tested and a good performer as well. It's stiff competition, but which of these two diminutive laptops stands apart?
