AMD FirePro™ W8000 


AMD FirePro W8000 Category Leading Compute Performance

Overview 

AMD FirePro™ W8000AMD FirePro™ W8000 is the high-end category leader for multitasking and application performance across up to four displays. It’s up to 4.5 times faster than the competing solution in single precision compute performance due in part to its innovative all-new Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture1. For 3D workloads, its GeometryBoost feature makes quick work of triangles, processing 1.8 billion per second, up to 1.5 times more than the competing product.2

Equipped with a large 4GB GDDR5 frame buffer, W8000 delivers up to 1.5 times more memory bandwidth than the competing solution, and with high performance computing (HPC) features like error correcting code (ECC) memory and 806 GFLOPs of double precision floating point performance, it’s a great choice for HPC workflows.3

  • Drive up to four displays with AMD Eyefinity technology,4 and up to six utilizing DisplayPort 1.2 multistreaming technology,4 enabling users to multitask across multiple applications with ease
  • Operates at resolutions well beyond standard HD, at a max of 4096x2160, due to DisplayPort 1.2 support
  • 3.23 TFLOPs of single precision compute performance for unrivaled application performance – up to 4.5 times more than the competing solution5
  • Optimizations and certifications for many major CAD/CAE and media and entertainment applications
  • Intelligent power saving and monitoring technologies for higher performance

Features and Benefits 

AMD Eyefinity Technology

Industry-leading multidisplay technology enabling highly immersive and unrivaled multitasking experience across up to four displays, powered by a single AMD FirePro™ W8000 graphics card.4

GeometryBoost

Allows the GPU to process geometry data at a rate of twice per clock cycle resulting in a doubling in the rate of primitive and vertex processing. Triangle rates increase two-fold relative to a GPU that does not possess GeometryBoost.

Partially Resident Textures (PRT)

PRT can utilize absolutely enormous texture files, up to 32 terabytes large, with minimal performance impact. PRT accomplishes this by streaming small bits of these massive textures into the GPU as needed, giving compatible applications a virtually endless supply of unique texture data.

Error Correcting Code (ECC) Memory

Helps ensure the accuracy of your computations by correcting single or double bit errors as a result of naturally occurring background radiation.

DisplayPort 1.2

Simultaneously output multiple, independent audio streams and display content at resolutions beyond standard HD (maximum resolution of 4096x2304).

Energy Efficient Design

AMD PowerTune technology dynamically optimizes GPU power usage and AMD ZeroCore Power technology significantly reduces power consumption at idle.6

AMD ZeroCore

AMD ZeroCore Power technology leverages AMD's leadership in notebook power efficiency to grant our desktop GPUs the ability to power down when your monitor is off, also known as the "long idle state."

AMD PowerTune

AMD PowerTune is an intelligent system that performs real-time analysis of applications that utilize a GPU. In the event that an application is not making the most of the power available to the GPU, AMD PowerTune can improve that application's performance by raising the GPU's clock speed by up to 30 percent - automatically.

Framelock/Genlock

Facilitates synchronization to external sources (Genlock) or synchronizes 3D rendering across multiple GPUs in different systems.7

Video Codec Engine (VCE)

A multistream hardware H.264 HD encoder, for power efficient and quick video encoding.

Expand your visual real estate up to six monitors with a single graphics card so you can increase your workflow productivity.
  1. AMD FirePro™ W8000 features four DisplayPort outputs, can drive up to four displays simultaneously and features 3.23 TFLOPs of single precision floating point performance, compared to Nvidia Quadro 5000 that features two DisplayPort outputs and one DVI output but is only capable of driving two displays at once, and features 718.08 GFLOPs of single precision floating point performance. Visit http://www.nvidia.de/object/product-quadro-5000-de.html for Nvidia product specs. FP-43.
  2. AMD FirePro™ W8000 has a triangle rate of 1.8 billion triangles per second compared to Nvidia Quadro 5000 that is capable of 0.95 billion triangles per second. Visit http://www.nvidia.de/object/product-quadro-5000-de.html for Nvidia product specs. FP-45.
  3. AMD FirePro™ W8000 features a 256-bit memory interface and delivers 176 GB/s memory bandwidth, compared to Nvidia Quadro 5000 with a 320-bit interface and 120 GB/s memory bandwidth. Visit http://www.nvidia.de/object/product-quadro-5000-de.html for Nvidia product specs. FP-36.
  4. AMD Eyefinity technology can support up to six DisplayPort displays using a single enabled AMD graphics card. The number of supported displays varies by card model and board design; confirm specifications with the manufacturer before purchase. Additional hardware may be required.
