the fury x costs the same as a 980ti in the UK and doesn't outperform it.. so no not every amd chip has price to performance!

The Titan X is a great card, yes. But it isn't worth the premium over the GTX 980ti.

 

Previously, the main reason to get a Titan-class card were if you were using the double precision that those cards had. However, the Titan X does not have that. So because of that, I can not justify its price over the GTX 980ti.

Double-precision was never really a good reason to buy a Titan. Titans lacked the ECC memory which you would generally want if you'd purchase the devices for DP calculations.

 

Rather, it was the 2x VRAM that people were buying it for. Used 780 6GBs sold for pretty much equal to what the used GTX Titans were selling for...as for Titan X. If you need the bigger VRAM pool (i.e 3D rendering) then you might justify buying it, since double-precision is not needed, and if you are not using any of the Quadro-specific features, you can essentially treat it as a cheaper Quadro.
