I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this card...and was expecting only about a 20% or so performance boost over a GTX 1080.  I bought it...well...because I wanted it...not because I needed it! 
 
Using Folding @ Home as a platform benchmark, I'm seeing about a 60% performance boost over my 1080 FTW:
 
Titan X Pascal:
- Sustained Boost Clock: 1900 MHz (still has room to go)
- Folding PPD: 1.3 million
- Cooling: Stock cooler
 
EVGA 1080 FTW:
- Sustained Boost Clock: 2100 MHz (still has room to go)
- Folding PPD: 800 K
- Cooling: ACX 3.0
 
Using the Heaven Benchmark, I get about a 50% FPS performance increase in surround of 3 x 1920x1080 (5760 x 1080).
 
The 1080 if a great card, but the Titan X Pascal is fantastic. 
 
My 1080 is a good overclocker, and the Titan X is a great overclocker.  The card hits 1980 MHz as long as the temperature is under 60 C...and drops to 1900 MHz at it's final temperature of 79 C to 85 C.
 
Come on EVGA...give us the 1080 FTW and Titan X Pascal Hybrid Kits!!!!

Stop talking about how great they are before I end up buying one!!
 
I went to the 1080 because I could basically came out of my Titan X clean on the transition (sold for the cost of the new card).  Then TX Pascal hit and I decided I need to wait for Volta because this card does everything I need and then some.
 
But I could have a TX Pascal....

I'm very impressed with the Titan X Pascal...is performing much better than I expected it to.
 
The only down side is the stock cooler is noisy and not good enough.
 
(It was Sajin that made me buy one!   ...you will buy one...they are more awesome than you know...you will buy one...)

Thinking about it, but I'm still holding out for a 1080ti because maybe Nvidia will actually let evga have a crack at throwing the ACX 3 on there. That's my reservation. I got the 1080 SC, and man, I never knew video cards could be so quiet. I had the Titan X (Maxwell) before and that thing was LOUD. Not keen on going back until a new line of triple-A games that bring the 1080 to its knees.

How long did you fold with the Titan to get your - Folding PPD: 1.3 million
 
Was this a "snapshot" after a hour or two from the control panel (lower left corner) or sustained after several days ?
 
I do not see a link to your Folding

When I first saw the announcement I focused on 11 tflops vs 9 tflops and was like 20-24% is not worth it and was thinking about keep the 1080 classifieds i had at the time. but then the benchmarks release and it was much faster than the 1080 and almost double the 980 ti :)

These are averages across a couple of days worth of production - work units completed...not the PPD estimates out of the Folding control app.  You probably already know that the PPD estimate is only good for the current work unit, against a given core, against a given project (different project numbers on the same core yield different PPD results...and core 0x18 are the worst.)
 
(i.e. looking through the log file and recording completed WUs...I wrote a program to automate this for me).
 
I increased the Titan X P overclock Wed evening...and this yielded a linear PPD increase with the overclock.
 
When I get home tonight, I can post some day-to-day results if interested (work units completed before or after the midnight crossover can skew the number up or down).
 
Folding Stats: 
http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=693640
 
I'm currently folding with a Titan X P, 1080 FTW, 980 Ti Hybrid:
 
Averages over 2 days:
Titan X P: 1.2 million PPD
1080 FTW: 800 K PPD
980 Ti Hybrid: 675 K PPD
 
Recently replaced an EVGA 980 SC with the Titan X P.  Trading out the 980 SC for Titan X P gave an increase of about 900 K PPD...and the 980 SC averaged around 400 K PPD.
 
(It could be I just got a lucky batch of work units the past few days...shrug...I'm still happy!)

No, after several days I like those numbers
 
Not knowing your Folding background, I did not know where your PPD came from.  I'm a day 20, new to Folding member
 
It is important to me to get "good" data feedback ---> looking at adding to my Folding build also, new Titan(s) that is.
 
My signature builds are currently Folding.  I am thinking about upgrading the EVGA 980 SC myself
 
Have you measured the Watts drawn between 980 SC and Titan upgrade ?
 
Thanks for the information

Yeah - it was an increase - but I don't remember how much.
 
Here's a data point I did record:
- Main rig is an i7-5820K (overclock of 4.3 GHz)
- For this data point, Titan XP was drawing 110% TDP, 980 Ti was 105% TDP, and processor was at 80 W
- This was pulling 775 W from the wall
- Power supply is gold rated 850 W EVGA G2...so figure 90% efficiency...
- This puts system power draw at about 697 W for this data point
 
Both the Titan XP and 980 Ti Hybrid are 250 W TDP cards.

Gotta love that titan xp performance.
