- The Nvidia GTX TITAN X was a beast back in 2015, offering more CUDA cores and higher boost speeds than the popular 980 Ti. 7 years later and these old beasts are finally affordable, but just how well does it perform in modern games and is it seriously worth considering?

The Titan X was my first "dream" gpu: the gpu I wanted to get, but knew I would never be able to afford. Now in 2022 it's outperformed by an RTX 3060. Crazy how far tech has developed.
3050 outperforms it
@@fiece4767 I still want this for collection
Actually, performance wise, Maxwell Titan X is on par with a 1070 gtx. It is already outperformed by 1080 gtx and 1080ti and all the later releases (20xx and 30xx)
not that crazy tech used to develop way faster
I remember wanting the titan X so much, but now my used 5700xt outperforms it, it feels crazy
The Titan cards have always been so cool. They are horrendous value most of the time though. There is the Tesla M40 though which is basically just a Titan X without any display outputs and lowered clocks. It’s a great deal for less than $100 dollars in the US. You have to do a small registry edit to get it working and get a fan for it. Other than that though, it works really well!
How do you get an image without display outs? Pass through to motherboard ports?
@@JustIn-sr1xe yes, or to a weaker gpu. That's how I gamed on one through the gpu shortage, but replaced it with a rtx 2080 ti.
@@JustIn-sr1xe Yup, exactly like that. There is one catch though, the platform has to have above 4G decoding for the card to work properly.
I’ll have to look into that, thanks
@@flightsimpro8979 dont
get the 4060 or 4070
since nvidia spent 10 billion usd on chips they cant get much higher then msrp
I had two of these back in 2015, spent so long saving for them and they were absolute monsters, always bounced off the 83C limit until I was able to save up enough again to fit EVGA Hybrid kits to them. One of them failed to a dodgy set of temperature sensors which was a shame, but the other one soldiered on right up until this year in the rig I gave to my brother. That massive amount of VRAM really stood it in good standing for a long time!
Love the original Titan X, was very expensive at 800 pounds a card, but unlike even the x90 class cards now you got the full GM-200 chip in it, nothing held back. Great video as always!
Thanks :) awesome that you had two. I might get a second and SLI them haha
i wonder if anyone made a water block for them
There vrm’s like to explode too
What do you mean by full gm 200 chip?
Well, now Im kind of sad I paid more for my midrange RTX3070 than you paid for a top notch Titan X back then. 😄
Crazy how the general perspective back then was that $1,000 for a GPU was an insane amount of money. It absolutely was/is, but for that price you got the highest end GPU die Nvidia could make and enough VRAM to use ultra textures for a decade to come.
Now you get a heavily cut down GPU on a 192 bit bus with a moderate amount of VRAM by modern standards. Looking at you -RTX 4070- RTX 4080 12 GB.
That is what people don't get. For the same Price you get a much much faster Card. The cost to make those Cards have have also risen considerably.
But also yes, the 4080 12GB...i mean RTX 4060Ti is too expensive for what it is. The 4080 12GB is close to the performance of the 3080ti and still costs more...
@@gucky4717 I'm going to guess computer graphics is bigger now than it was 20 years ago. Nvidia probably has more of the market now than it had 20 years ago. It has economies of scale and a larger customer base. I'm guessing it's gotten cheaper to make these cards and not dearer in relative terms.
Are there any games that you need the newest card to play? And do you want those games?
The used market is going to get millions of GPUs over the next couple of months as those global crypto warehouses are taken down. Used prices are falling every month.
This RUclips channel is mostly used components. And he shows they work fine. I like that.
nvidia claims of needing to raise prices hold up about as well as video companies claiming they need to up games to $70 when most of their profits came from post release income.
They could easily come up with the best the older prices could give people - but they don't have to - mining then the pandemic - also, prices almost never go back down. Unless the 4000 craters relatively in sales, this is the new norm from them.
They wanted to be apple like - which means slowly getting rid of their AIB partners and raising prices to the limit of what you can get away with. they can have that if it works for them - I guess its AMD and Intel for my future purchases - and I have had nothing but EVGA/Nvidia cards for 15 years.
500 for a gpu was insane, will I have skipped both 2000 and 3000 serie and will probaly skip 4000 aswell as long as they are making graphic cards for the rich only.
I miss when $1000 was for professional Quadro cards.
the titan x was my absolute dream card back in 2015 and seeing it strugle like this hurts my heart 😢
Yeah the OG titan was mine for ages. That struggles quite a bit now too
Then it got surpassed the next year by just a $700 1080 lmao. I've always seen Titans as a marketing gimmick
It does not struggle with 2015 era games :P
@@aleksazunjic9672 moot comment. A 486 doesn’t struggle with Wolfenstein 3D either.
@@ToTheGAMES isn't moot for some people
I still use this beast to this day. I never had a reason to upgrade besides of the insane heat this card can make. I got it for 150$ back last year, and it’s been one of my best purchases to date.
Great buy 👍
@@RandomGaminginHD can you do two cards of this on sli ?? would like to see that.
@@casrogue I'd hate to think about the heat output from that...
Power drain is something you forget to look at
I got 2 in my rig now and honestly ever though i have owned it for 8+ years i don't see any need to replace it yet.... what you said about the heat is right though... lets just say i don't need to put the heating on and the room it's in stays at a comfortable temp lol.
I remember when this thing first came out. Friends and I were going nuts over how cool the case itself looked. Joked about how it was a literal armor for the card
Great video RGHD. I really appreciate the addition of the power stats. It really helps put in perspective how efficient some cards can be. TheTitan X was once a far-off dream for many of us, but look at it now ☹️
The performance is too low for the power they consume. If you're a collector, it would fill a hole, but you shouldn't game with it when there are higher performing cards that draw less power and generate less heat.
always loved this card. Great to see it still performing decently in 2022
Still have one in an old pc so made me smile to see this review 😀
Still own same evga card , temperatures were quite high ~around 80-87c with standart blower , so at the time i replaced it with accelero extreme 4 and after that maximum temperature i witnessed was 74c at 275watt max load. Replaced it with rx 6900xt a few months ago then they dropped at price. Even after all these years still a good video card with a plenty amount of vram. good video👍
I didnt thought, that this old beast would struggle that much with modern games. But then you realize how much time has passed and start to appreciate how well it has aged.
When you go back another seven years in time, the equivalent top dog GPU would be something like a 9800 X2 and this wouldnt hold up at all in 2015.
Having owned one of these bad boys it was a hilariously hot card that was highly desirable for many people. It was a crazy huge jump in performance over my gtx 550 Ti. The gtx 1660 super is close to the performance of this card while running a lot cooler and less noise.
Yeah it’s crazy how GPUs have progressed
Love these cards, have two of them I recently picked up from someone parting out a server and installed an AIO on each one. Running them SLI on an old x470/r5 3600 combo for the giggles. Was really fun to build and test with. $470 total too!
I also had 2 of these in Sli, was really great being able to play every game available, even tweaking SLi profiles was fun at the time.
I still have a GTX 970 in my PC and I'm honestly surprised with how comparable the performance is. I don't play a fair amount of the titles you showcase here, but in many newer games I can quite easily maintain very playable framerates, typically above 60. I think that generation of cards aged rather gracefully all things considered.
This is the last, fastest NVIDIA card with native analog output for CRT compatibility.
Finally, I've been waiting for this exact review. Nice video, man!
Nice video as always. Gotta a chuckle out of you trying to shoot Charles. lol
One is my favorite GPU shrouds is still the Titan X from the Pascal generation (and the refreshed Titan Xp). The blower cooler was terrible for such a power hunger GPU, but man did it look cool.
I have one vertically mounted in my system, it's gorgeous but ineffective at taming the beast.
Conclusion: You shouldn't
I have a titan x pascal that I've been running since I bought my computer in 2016. It can run anything I throw at it 1080p high settings all day. That's not bad considering it's age.
@@rayzor285 any thoughts on upgrading, if so what to?
@@rayzor285 titan x and titan x Pascal er completely different card, the normal Titan x has performance to a 980 ti, while the pascal version is close to a 1080 ti
@@h2rv it depends honestly. At this point, I'd probably just get a new PC all together if I were to upgrade. My motherboard CPU socket is lga 1151 which is pretty outdated at this point and I already have to most powerful CPU I could get with that socket type. So w new GPU would probably just bottleneck. Even my current configuration bottlenecks on certain cpu intensive games.
thanks
Merci pour le test !! ;)
Always loved the titans glass panel. Looks so cool.
This card will always be legendary for me. At the time back in 2015 I bought PC parts monthwise to save up to my dream build. which finally consisted of a intel i7 5820K, 32 gb ddr4, 1300 watt psu and 3 Titan X in sli.
Those were the bloody times :)
That's pretty much exactly what I built in 2016 (and still using right now). Just a single gpu though.
I feel like top of the line cards nowadays will have more long-term value. The Titan came around in an era where 720p/1080p/1440p were basically it. Nowadays cards are built for 4k, and I don't really see most people ever wanting to go beyond that to something like 8k. The Titan handles modern 1080p titles just fine 7 years later, and I'd imagine 4k cards today will still be handling 4k just fine 7 years from now as well.
I'd love for you to make longer videos
I had one of these from around 2005-November of last year when I upgraded to a Ryzen 9 and an RTX 3080Ti. I think it's a pretty decent card if you are OK with 1080 gaming. I finally got my hands on a couple of 4K monitors, so I wanted something that would support 1440 gaming a little better.
From the 900 series? I'm guessing not unless you're trying to build an absolutely maxed out Windows XP retro machine for the meme, because the prices of these are still inflated above cards that handily outperform it.
This was by far the best card Nvidia ever released. The 12GB of VRAM made it last through multiple monitor upgrades for me (from 1080p to 4K) and it was the only un-gimped Titan card that came with a fully unlocked core from the architecture's launch. It also overclocked out of the box by like 25% without even touching the voltage or ever reaching 100% fan speed. At 4K, it still had better frame pacing than even the faster and newer 8GB VRAM Pascal cards (like the 1070, which had noticeable stuttering) due to the extra VRAM on the Titan. And it was merely £150 more expensive than the 980 TI.
It still makes Nvidia's cards today look like an absolute scam by comparison in value-for-money.
I love the reference design! Bought the reference 980Ti for $200 back in 2018 for my HTPC, currently running everyday, 8hours plus a day.
I bought one myself about 2 years ago. And it was fairly enjoyable to make a video on. Sadly i couldn’t get my bios mods to work how I like it (a thing you could do on 900 series cards) but it was fairly capable at 1440p medium and 4K with reduced settings (no resolution scale or DLSS bs)
I was running one of these until a couple of years ago, unloaded it during the GPU drought for silly money (it’s a free market!). Have to remember Maxwell overclocked like a beast, and the best thing about the Titan was the superb build quality, since they were marketed as “pro” level cards. The dies were well binned and the cooler surprisingly effective for a blower. A great card, and monster of its day.
Why not! It's all about capitalism man lol
I would have cringed at my customer tho, There's just no way I would spend anything close to what people were spending on GPUs! And I bet a lot of them are pretty pissed off now after the major crash...
My brother purchased a 3070 for 900 bux, I just purchased one for 400 😆🤣
@@danimayb some of the problem was people needed a new card because old one failed, those people had to pay.
@@givemeanameman1 no kidding, I had to buy a 3090 new for $2800aud ($600 above retail) because I needed a cuda based card and needed decent vram, and there was literally nothing else available. (my previous card died)
@@lostsanityreturned I didnt need CUDA, you doing simulations on your card? so I could get away with a 6900xt which was at MSRP or I could pay the same price for a 6700xt on ebay.
Its utterly insane and Nvidia hopes we will now see those prices as normal.
Free market until you get robbed.
I had a pair until recently. Essentially performs like a 980Ti (no surprise there). Always a shame it never had a backplate though. I remember when this thing came out, I think the amount of vram blew my mind when you consider the 980 had 4GB…
EVGA put a backplate on it, but most versions were suffering. It really hurt the memory performance to have half the chips without some sort of heatsink.
Slapped a heatkiller block on it, a koolance backplate on(thermal pads to a hefty aluminum block) and it was gucci.
I had a 970 back then that had “4gb” or ram. Everyone downplayed the scandal that it was really 3.5gb of ram, but over time, that 3.5gb became a much bigger limitation than what anyone expected.
Many people still to this day refer to top end cards (eg: rtx 3090) as “Titan class cards”. So the legend lives on.
I always wanted one of these cards, so sick. My best setup at the time was 2 PNY 970s in SLI for $660, then I got married and haven’t had a cool setup since lol
I can't believe how far we're come. I remember watching benchmarks of this card back in the day, when I was just a kid, being like "Wow this GPU is so powerful" and now it's just... ok?!
we clearly haven't come far enough when a 2015 card can still run recent games
@@darthmortem585 You do understand, that it's bad, that new games progressively require faster PCs? Game developers keep relying on Hardware getting faster, instead of optimizing their games properly. It should be welcomed, that older GPUs can run recent titels

I remember when the GTX 1070 launched and have almost the same performance for even less of half of the price. I literally said “I got a Titan X with less power consumption”
I just replaced my 1070 with a 2070 last month and had no idea I was breaking the Titan X barrier
@@KittenoftheBroccoli The Titan X (Maxwell), the GTX 980ti and the GTX 1070 have the same performance and the only difference is the amount of Vram (but is not that noticeable on 1080p high or even medium). A fun fact, the GTX 1660 TI have the same performance but with more bandwidth because of the GDDR6 memory (but is kinda useless because only have 6GB of Vram and you only notice that extra Vram speed with more demanding textures, the ones that already prefer amount over speed in 1080p) but yes, you technically can get a Titan X equivalent for less than 200USD
I remember this thing. It was the top-of-the-line card around the time I started building PCs.
i literally bought one hours before this vid went up, good to see performance is still decent enough, will fit nicely in my nuc
These cards are obsolete, but if you have an old computer specifically for CAD or whatever sometimes the program you use determines the best GPU you can use for rendering, so they are definitely still in demand for things like AutoCAD/Maya/Inventor... because having the newest gpu available doesn't mean the renderers included with your editor can use their CUDA cores. Titan cards are more common/cheaper than the highest model Quadro from the same year/family (usually), so they are usually better choice to buy if you really need them for a drafting computer. I'm sure there are still architects/engineers out there with 780 Ti's in their older computers-it's not that they don't already have something better, but CAD programs from before 2016 were not subscription based, so you can see why they would want to hold on to a computer with CAD programs from 2008-2016 instead of paying $500 a month to rent the newest version of AutoCAD.
i wouldnt really call them obsoloete, they are basically a 1070 with power consumption issues and they can play any new game at medium settings
i personally own a tesla m40 (same thing without video outputs) and it really can run anything i have rn
I don't know how you can call a card that runs any modern game reasonably well - obsolete. Are there better options? Of course, but if you have one - there's still not dire need to upgrade.
i found this super interesting
These cards have been good value for at least the past 6 months sub £150 and ideal for entry gamming rigs at 1080P. 6 months ago I could not get a 980TI for less than £230, If you can pick one up for around £130 now still a great buy.
These cards just aren't spring chickens though; advice I receive tends to be try and get a 2060 instead.
@@nigelo92 agreed but the 2060 is over 50% more in my country and still not a budget card. If the 2060 and Titan X (Maxwell) are the same price where you are then no brainer go 2060 :)
Good value until you consider the thermals and wattage, really.
Very true, I just sold a 980ti hybrid for £100 which I think is fair
Very true, I just sold a 980ti hybrid for £100 which I think is fair
I remember being a kid making a custom PC on ibuypower and the titan just released at the time and ever since then it's been a dream card of mine
ive had this gpu since it came out so cool to randomly see a video of it pop up even after all theses years also u should overclock it it overclocks very well and even if u dont wanna oc it turn up the fan and keep it below 79c and ill run alot faster just pretty loud
I have a feeling this is how the 40 series will end up. Have to sell a kidney to buy one, and years later when it's affordable it'll be less than optimal for the games at the time.
Probably lol
As everything,considering also how fast technology is evolving they might last even less at their maximum potential but FSR/XeSS or DLSS will make them still relevant
But hey, maybe they'll be a good source of salvaged giant coolers.
I dont think they will hold up as good seeing as the power connector is rated for 30 cycles before it melts.
You should do a top of video cards based in the buget

@@RandomGaminginHD I think the problem is you've got people who want to buy it because they have some nostalgia about it being a super high-end card. So they're willing to overpay just to own it
There were actually 3 different Titan X cards. The Maxwell version that this video is based on, the Titan Pascal, and the Titan Xp. The Xp was released almost a year after the Titan Pascal and is essentially the peak of the Pascal die.
Nice relook. It's nice that the hardware is aging well and can still play the tittles with ease.
man i wish i had one of these back in the day . op it was
This is probably my favorite GPU ever, built my first-ever PC with this card and a 4790k. Was an absolute monster until my 2080ti took its throne, and the 3090 afterwards.
Could you do a retrospective on ryzen 2nd gen? Specifically the 2700x, as ive had one of them for a few years and noticing severe bottlenecking after upgrading my GPU to a 2080ti.
Yeah will do at some point :)
It all depends on resolution. I've got 2600, not even X, with 3070ti, and with like 1080p it bottlenecks. But when running 1440p or higher, the bottleneck is gone. Switch to 1440p or higher resolution and bottleneck will be gone.
@@X2yt Probably should've done a bit more research before upgrading haha, got the 2080ti for a good deal but don't have the funds rn for a higher resolution monitor. Christmas is right around the corner tho! :)

I've been seeing some of the older Titans pop up for steals lately and have been highly considering snagging one just for the hell of it.
I have one of these right now. It generates so much heat that I don't play on it until my room is cold from the AC and this is with 4 exhaust fans plus one intake fan along with a CPU cooler/radiator.
My GTX 970 still going "strong". Id like a 40 series card and probably keep that for another 10 years.
I see you added GPU power draw 👍
Still a solid card for 1080p 👍
This is why we can't have nice things...
Titan X (M)
Titan X (P)
Titan Xp (P)
In 2016 I built an am4 PC with a 1070. It's lasted way longer than I thought it would and it's still awesome. Started with a 1600 and now I'm on a 3600 and there's nothing it can't do... Yet lol. These old cards still hold up very well.
Amazing how it still holds up, back in the day I had a 980 instead the price was overkill but it didn't stop me from dreaming about one haha
The Titan gpus are awesome in performance and aesthetics 💪🥰🤯🤩. I’m surprised, despite power draw, the GPU performing as well as it did 💪🤩🤯! Due to the Titan moniker, you do pay a premium which isn’t a rational spend of funds when as mentioned you can get a GTX1070 which uses less power, performs a little better and can be found much cheaper . Cool GPU thou 😇🥰
Evga rip
F
I had this exact Titan X (EVGA) I sold it in my x299 rig when the 1080ti launched, it was a great card, its still pretty decent at 1080p.
I used to have 3 of these in sli. Great times.
No more EVGA :(
Yeah that’s a shame
If Nvidia weren't such shytebuttz. EVGA would still be dealing with them.
Rocking this bad boy in my second rig, it’s still a beast even in 4K
This was my previous card before I upgraded to an RTX 2080. Got it second hand but practically new for under $400 in 2015 so great deal at the time. I never sold it and keep it as a spare just in case because I know how well it still holds up today.
Still rocking my EVGA GTX Titan X with an EK waterblock. Runs very cool. Not the fastest gpu, by any means, but Ive had it since 2016 and it keeps me playing pretty much everything at high details.
Was lucky enough to find two deals on these cards a few years ago, got one for 170e & other for 230e, still have them on my spare pc in sli.
I wanted this card since the normal titan appeared, got my hands on a pascal x like 7 years ago for a MacPro mid 2010 and the combo is still an absolute unit, the titan series are solid af
I recently retired my array of Titan X's I used for mining. Great mining cards. I'll be taking them apart, applying fresh thermal paste and selling them soon. They have no use for me anymore after the proof-of-stake took over. I tested one in my rig and it performed just as it should. I stressed them out for years on end, but they are tough and can still perform. I may give a couple away as stocking stuffers for Christmas lol.
I realy like the looks of those Maxwell blowercoolers (I have a thing for radial fans anyway :P) . I do see them popping up once in a while, but people tend to ask an arm and a leg for it in pricing. Same with old Quadro cards, yeah the used to be expensive and very good, but nowadays they get outperformed even by mid-range and something low-end modern cards ( "so why not buy one of those? " I hear you ask, well... just look at the card, just look at it! it's gorgeous!). Ever still hoping to get my hands on a 'cheap' Maxwell or Pascal Quadro 6000 series (the black with bright green coolers are just awsome instead of the somewhat boring grey/silver Geforce variants).
I still got the pascal Titan Xp star wars edition they released a year or 2 later. Just thought it was the coolest looking card back then. It still looks great, and runs stuff very well.
It would be really cool to see you throw some fresh paste and zip tie a couple 120mm fans in place of the shroud, maxwell can see huge performance gains with overclocking
Thanks!
Too funny this video popped up on my RUclips videos.
Actually in the market to sell my current custom fully liquid cooled small form factor build, which has 2x EVGA Titan Xs. All EK nickle fittings, back plates, pumps. Custom laser etched graphics. Just haven't listed it for sale yet, but she's a beaut!
I cannot believe the gtx titan is now in a RandomHDgamingvideo, how time flies
I've been using one of these for the past 4 years for Iracing. Running 3 24" monitors plus a smaller 10" monitor. Still works great and stream with the PC at the same time as well. Paid $400 Cdn 4 years ago.
Still using one right now xD Its still playing the games I want at good settings for me so I have been sticking with it
The TITAN was my dream card. I got one at the same time I purchased the 1080 and just keept the TITAN in box, never used it. Still feel proud of such achievement.
How time flys I always wanted one when they first dropped. I'm happy still with my 2070 S at 1440p /1080p. I have a friend who still uses his 970 with a 8350 at 1080p and never complains .
whats super appealling to me about he maxwell cards is that theyre the last to support true analog output. so paired with a CRT monitor you could run lower resolutions at higher settings and fps with minimal loss of visual fidelity due the nature of CRT's being able to put out a sharp image with any resolution you throw at it.
Haha, RGinHD reviewing a Titan! Next do the Titan V CEO Edition.
Back in the day when it launched. I guess was 2015 or 2016. I imported two of these for my build in Pakistan. I did a custom water loop with these and they’d stay at 42 C at full load. i was one of the few lucky people who had these in his build for a 4K gaming experience. Good days. These were 1000 dollars back then. The most expensive gpus back then
I still have my EVGA 980 ti hybrid, It was amazing and was still chugging along until I switched to linux this year where it struggled in Proton since it uses Vulkan for it's compatibility layer, So I upgraded to a Sapphire 6800XT this past May. But the 980ti has served me well for 5 years.
Love my EVGA Titan X still. It's on my older pc, EVGA SR-2, 2-x5890 Xeons, 24gb ddr3 1600 Dominator ram, Intel solid state for windows 10 and 4 M.2's in raid 5 for storage. Getting 110 to 140 fps in Outlanders, Forza 5 on med to high settings. Temps around 60 to 65c. I undervolted the card to keep temps down
I am getting old.. I remember when this was top of the line and I could only own it in my dreams. Now it barely achieves 60fps on low settings 1080p.. Good times to be alive though!
i actually use this card to this day and im planning to change it to a new rtx card i hope the new prices get low enough to be worth it but i know those cards are atleast 4x stronger than what titan maxwell is so any upgrade is a good upgrade
I have a Titan X I recently bought for about $150 that had watercooling and thermal pads put on it.
Great upgrade from a basic GTX 980.
I am picking one of these or a 980 ti for the analog signal for my crt. Thanks for this video! Very decent card especially since I'll be running it at 1280x960 or even lower so it'll probably run max settings on all the cool new games I want to play.
I have 3 Titan X Maxwell and one Titan X Pascal all on water cooling. They are relegated to secondary pc's at this point but they perform well enough. Retained the stock coolers in the event I need to revert them.
A few years back during the GTX 10x0 generation, dual SLI Titan X builds were the builds for the mega-wealthy gamers, no surprise seeing it still be pretty decent
I stopped using my 980ti at the beginning of 2022 running a 4k display. The 9 series cards were priced so well and lasted years.

As someone who owns a lot of different graphics cards, from the GT 630, to the Intel ARC A380, to the RTX 3060. I also really want to get my hands on one of these, but the prices are still way outside my range of about $65, as it won't be used more than a few times.
Amazing results for a card from 2015 though, 4790k Devil's Canyon and Haswell 5960X's were released in the same year. Look how far we've come.
As someone who still uses a 1080, I probably won't pick one up, but it's cool that something so old still does work
I had a Titan Black, it did feel cool.
I got a 1660Ti OEM with a 120w Powerlimit for my small "Holiday" Pc which i can carry in a Handbag.
Put a Cpu Top Blower Cooler on it and oc/undervolted the Gpu.
The Games i tested it was running 2000mhz@0.925v at Performance Level 980ti/1070/Titan X.
Only Reason to go with a Titan would be the VRam if you need it.
Used 1606ti/1070(ti) are cheap now and are very good for 1080p Gaming if you have no Problem to put some Quality Setting down from Ultra in the newest Games.
My friend bought 4 of these back in the day... Still uses them now
