The NVIDIA hype train is unstoppable and news today sees information regarding the Pascal-based GeForce GTX TITAN. Speculations peg the future flagship card will be announced sometime around Gamescom 2016, which is going to be held in Germany between August 17-21. The GTX TITAN Pascal is expected to be based on the GP100 silicon and will possibly have up to a maximum of 16GB or a second variant at 12GB and both cards will have varying memory bus as well. A 16GB release will see a possible HBM2 stack of 4096-bit memory while a 12GB variant will see a stack of three on a 3072-bit bus. This is similar to what NVIDIA has done to the Tesla P100 PCIe accelerators. TDP rating for the Pascal-based GTX TITAN is estimated around 300-375W and will draw power from two 8-pin PCIe power connectors.
With the release of a GTX TITAN almost always guarantees a Ti release based on recent history but speculations raises a different story for a possible GTX 1080 Ti sporting a GP102 die and will feature around 3840 CUDA cores of the same kind like that of the GP104. Simpler 384-bit GDDR5X memory is expected to be baked into this card.
Sources state that the cards are targeted to provide 150% performance compared to a GTX 1080.

150% more performance means 250% total performance of 1080. Pretty misleading title.
it’s possible
Actually debating which is which. Corrected as per suggestion. Thank you!
