Only 9x when you utilise the Tensor Cores- which are seriously limited in what they can do. They're basically fixed function deep learning hardware, which is going to be pretty much useless for gaming.

I'd take a GV102; I don't have any interest in GV100.
[and this *is* the consumer version of GV100 AFAICT...]

Isn't that what launched the Phoenix?

Not that I'm expecting it, but the block diagrams put the tensor cores within each of the 4 sub-cores in a Volta SM. Either the SM itself will be different on non-V100 chips, or this hardware will be there and could be utilised.

Not even close. Gaming 99% uses FP32, and Titan V has 13.8 TFlops, not far ahead of Titan Xp's 12.1 TFlops.
There are improvements to the instruction scheduling, like allowing FP and INT instructions to be co-issued, but this isn't going to be some gaming monster. It's for Deep Learning, and it's damn good at it.

Using Volta for gaming would probably put it on par with Vega because it just isn't optimized for gaming workloads. Now from what I can tell, it has the possibility of being very well optimized for gaming trim. The gaming version should be interesting, albeit an evolutionary rather than revolutionary performance improvement over Pascal.

My guess is GV104 first. Assuming the usual improvements between generations a full fat GV104 should be 10% - 20% faster than a 1080TI, which would be plenty to stay on top of the gaming performance charts.

..the price-performance under that condition is incredibly poor.
The pascal Titan X vs the 980Ti was almost double the performance into higher resolutions. Price difference was about 3x.
