You either get the GP100 for real scientific stuff (and then also have the money to back it up) or you want to play games - where you are better off with... lets say 2x1080? Can someone explain this product to me?

The only reason that I can think of for releasing this besides the two reasons you've mentioned is just for people to be able to upgrade their over priced titan to newer better version in order to stay cool at school. Seriously though, I too would like to know what you're asking. I can only think that it's just marketing thing.

It is not comparable, it is like comparing truck vs mini car

I am not trying to be biased here, windows nvidia titan users are some of the most stupid people I have ever seen. The people I see living in the street have a lot more insight into technology than the nvidia youngsters and grownups that buy and review (multi) titan setups for casual gaming. I personally know a few people who do this, they literally don't to know the difference between MB and GB.

Ferraris don't offer the same performance/price ratio as a family sedan, do you also think whoever buys a Ferrari is clueless? I'm not arguing that there aren't people with more money than brains, I'm just saying your sample is not big enough for you to generalize.
For the record, I've stated before that I don't spend more than $300 on a video card, so I don't really care whether Titans are sold for $500 or $50,000, but I don't have a problem with people buying them.

There are large amount of rich dumbfucks that buy ridicolously overpriced shit just because they can, Titan X are aimed to them because Nvidia is in the market to make money so why the fuck not?
I mean, go look up Vertu smartphone manufacturer, hardware that does not go terribly better than a high-end phone and isn't much cooler to look at but have random luxury stuff attached and costs 5000+ $.
