bit of a misleading points here, Voon.
First of all Titan is second fastest (single GPU) CUDA card from Nvidia GTX line, coming just after GTX780Ti & it has biggest amount of Vram (unless You want to buy 12GB pro card)..-so only from these facts alone it has it's value & for SOME it's The Only Option.
Now if You don't need a sport car (SUV, cargo car, whatever You choose), because You have almost no driving skills and You don't like sports (or you don't have any other specific needs), doesn't mean You can say that sport cars (or other type, let's say vans, huge lories..) 'make no sense at all'. It make no sence at all for You - & that's Your opinion..it's not a fact! =)
For those who can use, who know why they are buying..the only thing You need to provide is information: and then they do their choise on their own 'cos their needs & budget might be different..& they might need that expensive sport car, a big van or even a mining truck - it's their choise.
back to the Titan - this card is gaming card it's in GTX line, it not profesional card..it doesn't have ECC..and dual point performance is cropped compared to Teslas and Quadros. In games GTX makes a lot of sence..but not for those who play at 1080 old titles..- there's too much written on this topic.
