GeForce GTX 1080 Max-Q vs GeForce GTX TITAN X specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX TITAN X GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 1080 Max-Q in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1080 Max-Q has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1080 Max-Q also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1080 Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 110 W when compared to the GeForce GTX TITAN X at 250 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX TITAN X is faster than the GeForce GTX 1080 Max-Q.
