NVIDIA TITAN X (Pascal)

Blender score 854

Pascal GPU aimed at mid-sized Blender scenes, everyday rendering, and strong value without flagship pricing.

Last updated: March 31, 2026

Blender benchmark score

854

Entry-level speed — fine for learning and lighter scenes.

VRAM

12 GB

Adequate for mid-complexity scenes; may need care with very large textures.

CUDA cores

3,584

Lower core count — adequate for lighter rendering workloads.

Architecture

Pascal

Older architecture — check benchmark scores for a practical performance picture.

Memory bandwidth

480.4 GB/s

Moderate bandwidth — sufficient for standard rendering workloads.

Boost clock

1531 MHz

Lower clock speed — typical of older or workstation-class GPUs.

Render support

OptiX

OptiX hardware acceleration provides the fastest Cycles rendering path.

TDP

250 W

Moderate power needs — standard workstation PSU and cooling should be fine.

Release year

2016
