Graphics Performance

The TITAN RTX scores 20,095 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the High-End tier as a Legacy generation graphics card. It is built on the Turing (2018−2022) architecture (codename: TU102), manufactured on a 12 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 4608 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 288 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 96 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 16.31 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1770 MHz from a base of 1350 MHz.
