If your into high end gamming and want the best gpu card then I would still probably recommend the GTX 690, but if you want comparable performance and a single gpu card then by all means go with the titan. I must admit as of right now I am not getting my moneys worth with this card as I currently just have a single monitor setup and on top of that it max out at 1080p. So right now all that extra vram is just being wasted and that's one of the main things that set it apart from it's competition. I am keeping this short and just saying this is a great card and the fact that it is a single gpu unlike the 690 scaling in sli is a lot better. If you want a full in-depth review of this card I suggest looking it up on a technology site (toms hardware is usually pretty good).
Update: I have now had the titan for a few months and absolutely adore the card. Yes the card is still a bit steep in price and you can find comparable for less when you look at the 780 or you can go the SLI route and you can get two of a numerous cards and out perform it for still less, but if you can afford it I highly recommend. First off as you probably have read when considering the card it has 6gb for vram, but after having this card that isn't my main point I like about it much. I particularly like the boost clock and how it is directly correlated with the card temp. I think the base clock say it at 830 something boost 870 something don't kill me if I am off just going form memory, but just from keep you card cool this is with out any over clocking my gpu with the boost clock on all my games run at a constant 993 mhz. Again that is no tweaking involved. Secondly as stated in my original review this is a single gpu card unlike the 690 which makes for much better system temps for your rig setup and when it comes to doing sli on cheaper cards as well to equal or surpass this one card performance. I know they have the 780 now which is close to power and on a lot of set up you probably won't see the difference, but do take into consideration you lose out on 3gb of vram and as games continue to evolve and higher end montiors continue to drop in price you may miss that down the road. Thirdly this card in virtually quiet at least in my setup it is unnoticeable and though I have a headset I play my games a lot without them as well and no complaints from sound.
