Any prebuilt (Especially big brand) PC.

This is not entirely true, there are plenty of prebuilts that are reasonably priced considering their specs(at least here in the US)

Titan's aren't built to workstation quality standards such as the Quadro and Tesla are, and as such aren't designed for or warrant the amount of stress that they will see.

Titan's are a breed of card that don't realy belong in either field, gaming (enthusiast), or Workstation (enterprise). They kind of float in their own realm, being somewhat irrelevant.

Yes... graphs. :P

A Titan is not designed to be run 24/7 under high stress environments such as the Tesla, Quadro, Firepro, ETC are.... that has very little to do with these graphs. That is what I mean by workstation quality.

It sits in it's own realm because it is above an enthusiast quality and price, but below a workstation quality.

You can buy a mid range GPU for that amount, or a good 1080p monitor, or an i5...

 

OFC if you have a kick ass machine already and you want it on top that's fine but it must be acknowledged that they are really overpriced for what it is, which is a keyboard with some LEDs on it.

Or an extremely nice pair of headphones.As much as i wanted the Chroma (Razer RGB keyboard) I don't feel the need to buy one since my 2013 Blackwidow Ultimate is doing fine. And the Black and Orange scheme is for the inside of my computer.
