In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GTX Titan X are significantly better than the Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 Zotac AMP! Edition.
The GTX 770 has a 150 MHz higher core clock speed than the GTX Titan, but the GTX Titan has 64 more Texture Mapping Units than the GTX 770. As a result, the GTX Titan exhibits a 44.8 GTexel/s better Texture Fill Rate than the GTX 770. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The GTX 770 has a 150 MHz higher core clock speed than the GTX Titan, but the GTX Titan has 64 more Render Output Units than the GTX 770. As a result, the GTX Titan exhibits a 59.2 GPixel/s better Pixel Fill Rate than the GTX 770. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The GTX Titan was released over a year more recently than the GTX 770, and so the GTX Titan is likely to have better driver support, meaning it will be more optimized for running the latest games when compared to the GTX 770.
Both GPUs exhibit very powerful performance, so it probably isn't worth upgrading from one to the other, as both are capable of running even the most demanding games at the highest settings.
The GTX Titan has 10240 MB more video memory than the GTX 770, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the GTX Titan also has superior memory performance overall.
The GTX Titan has 106.2 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the GTX 770, which means that the memory performance of the GTX Titan is massively better than the GTX 770.
The GeForce GTX Titan X has 3072 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce GTX 770 Zotac AMP! Edition has 1536. However, the actual shader performance of the GTX Titan is 4516 and the actual shader performance of the GTX 770 is 1846. The GTX Titan having 2670 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the GTX Titan delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the GTX 770.
The GeForce GTX Titan X requires 250 Watts to run but there is no entry for the GeForce GTX 770 Zotac AMP! Edition. We would recommend a PSU with at least 600 Watts for the GTX Titan and a PSU with at least 600 Watts for the GTX 770. The two GPUs have been recommended a PSU with the same amount of wattage. As such, there is no need to worry about which will more significantly affect your yearly electricity bills.

| Mini Review | Overview GeForce GTX Titan X is an Enthusiast Graphics Card based on the second revision of the Maxwell architecture. Architecture The Second variant of the Maxwell Architecture, despite being also manufactured with a 28nm technology, has an extremely large L2 Cache and features a Third Generation Delta Color Compression which allows NVIDIA to produce Graphics Cards with relatively small memory data transfer rates, without causing too much impact on the overall performance. Furthermore, the Shaders have been redesigned and are both more powerful and energy efficient. The Second Revision of Maxwell also adds VXGI (Voxel Global Illumination) which makes scenes significantly more lifelike and believable as light interacts more realistically in the game environment and the MFAA technology which provides the same effect as MSAA but at a much lower performance cost. GPU It equips a GPU codenamed GM200-400-A1 which has 24 SM activated and thus 3072 Shader Processing Units, 192 TMUs and 96 ROPs. The central unit runs at 1000MHz and goes up to 1089MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU accesses a 12GB frame buffer of fast GDDR5, through a 384-bit memory interface. The memory clock operates at 1753MHz. The size of the frame buffer is exaggerated and in no way adds extra performance. Features DirectX 12.0 Support (11.2 Hardware Default) and support for SLI, VXGI, MFAA, GameStream, G-SYNC, GPU Boost 2.0, GeForce Experience, PhysX and other technologies. Cooling Solution The Cooling System is Identical to the one used on the Original Titan but colored black instead, giving it a more modern design. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 250W, it requires at least a 600W PSU with one available 6-pin and 8-pin connectors. Release Price GeForce GTX Titan X was released for $999. Performance Benchmarks indicate that 1920x1080, it is even faster than AMD's Radeon R9 295X2 - a dual Graphics Card. However, GeForce GTX Titan X is best suited for 3K gaming and in that scenario, AMD's Dual Radeon R9 295X2 is considerably faster and somewhat cheaper. Truth is, even a solution of 2 GeForce GTX 970 proves to be faster and much cheaper. Therefore, GeForce GTX Titan X is not a worthy purchase. System Suggestions We recommend a very strong processor (Intel Core i7 Quad Core/AMD FX Eight Core) and 16GB of RAM for a system with GeForce GTX Titan X. | GeForce GTX 770 Zotac AMP! Edition is a special edition of GeForce GTX 770. This edition comes with a custom dual fan cooling solution which by itself should allow a slight performance boost, as GeForce GTX 770 benefits from the GPU Boost 2.0 technology. Also, it has been overclocked out of the box from 1046MHz to 1150MHz while its boost clock is now of 1202MHz. The memory clock was increased to 1800MHz. Benchmarks indicate a 8% performance boost when compared to the reference card and so this edition performs slightly better than GeForce GTX 590. | |||
