NVIDIA issued a press release for its new card, Titan Xp:
Introduced today [April 6], the Pascal-powered TITAN Xp pushes more cores, faster clocks, faster memory and more TFLOPS than its predecessor, the 2016 Pascal-powered TITAN X.
With the new TITAN Xp we're delivering a card to users who demand the very best NVIDIA GPU, directly from NVIDIA and supported by NVIDIA.
Key stats:
- 12GB of GDDR5X memory running at 11.4 Gbps
- 3,840 CUDA cores running at 1.6GHz
- 12 TFLOPs of brute force
This is extreme performance for extreme users where every drop counts.
Open to Mac Community
Speaking of users, we're also making the new TITAN Xp open to the Mac community with new Pascal drivers, coming this month. For the first time, this gives Mac users access to the immense horsepower delivered by our award-winning Pascal-powered GPUs.
TITAN Xp is available now for $1,200 direct from nvidia.com, and select system builders soon.
Don't shoot the messenger.

I once worked for a company that used XP in their new product name to signify that it was cross-platform (ie. didn't only run on OS/2 anymore).
When Windows XP came out they changed their name so people wouldn't think it only ran on Windows XP.

The kind of people who are going to buy this overpriced GPU are not going to be confused much by the name. Maybe search engines will be confused by it, returning results like "Can I use my NVIDIA Titan with Windows XP?"
