I know, you would never agree with me about anything
I didn't say anything that would call the Titan V "expensive"
Sure you did:
The 2080 ti is like a titan V for half the price
Considering the titan v is priced for commercial use, the $3000 price tag is expected.
Two cards with the same performance, but one card is twice as expensive. So it costs more because its for commercial use, this is exactly the reason why its so expensive for what the card is, this is because people are paying for more than just the graphics card when buying commercial cards like these.
That depends on what the performance you're looking at for a given task. For the sake of what the Titan V is targeted for (i.e. Deep learning, cloud acceleration, professional rendering), it can be considered a bargain for the time savings it can achieve. Especially when considering that this is operated on a large scale.

Then why did you say this above^^, either both cards are alike or they are not, so decide. The reason you initially said they were alike is because I have only ever been referring to rasterization performance:
it has become clear why nvidia weren't forthcoming about how their new cards performed in traditional rasterisation
So of course I'm still referring to rasterization performance.
What kind of statement is that? If a Toyota Corolla had the same performance as a Golf GTI, the news media would go crazy about it because it achieved the same "performance" for half the price.
The golf gti has, Deep learning, cloud acceleration, professional rendering and that's why its so expensive
.
You have again made another uturn, the cards were alike:
The 2080 ti is like a titan V for half the price
Then they weren't alike:

Now you seem to be suggesting they are alike again:
What kind of statement is that? If a Toyota Corolla had the same performance as a Golf GTI, the news media would go crazy about it because it achieved the same "performance" for half the price.
Lol, you say what kind of statement is that and then come out with this^^ the irony. You bring up commercial gpu's, but you don't seem to understand why they cost so much more, did you not know its normal for consumer cards perform close or even faster than the commercial cards in many different applications? Understand when you buy commercial cards you are not only paying for the card, you are also paying for all the extras and support that comes with them. It is alao because of market segmentation to allow price discrimination. Businesses who make money from work done with these cards have different requirements than gamers. Nvidia and AMD are taking advantage of that by asking them to pay more.
