Graphics Performance
The Titan X Pascal scores 13,660 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Mid-Range tier as a Legacy generation graphics card. It is built on the Pascal (2016−2021) architecture (codename: GP102), manufactured on a 16 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 3584 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 224 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 96 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 10.97 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1531 MHz from a base of 1417 MHz.
