Be Limitless, When Every Detail Counts. Enhancing and extending AMD’s graphics leadership. Key Features: >> Up to 4.5x as fast as competitive solutions in single precision compute performance.3 >> 4GB GDDR5 memory running at 176 GB/s bandwidth. >> Error Correcting Code (ECC) Memory means accuracy of your computations >> Partially Resident Textures (PRT) allows for the utilization of enormous texture files, up to 32 terabytes. >> AMD ZeroCore Power Technology enables your GPU to power down when your monitor is off . >> GeometryBoost — the GPU processes geometry data at a rate of twice per clock cycle, doubling the rate of primitive and vertex processing. >> AMD Eyefinity Technology— Industry-leading multi-display technology enabling highly immersive and unrivaled multi-tasking experience across up to 4 displays, powered by a single AMD FirePro™ W8000 card 1 and up to six utilizing DisplayPort 1.2.1 >> DisplayPort 1.2 compliant allowing for display of content at resolutions beyond standard HD.4 >> Energy Efficient Design— AMD PowerTune technology dynamically optimizes GPU power usage and AMD ZeroCore Power technology significantly reduces power consumption at idle. >> Framelock/Genlock— Facilitates synchronization to external sources (Genlock) or synchronizes 3D rendering across multiple GPUs in different systems (Framelock). 2 >> Video Codec Engine (VCE)— A multi-stream hardware H.264 HD encoder, for power efficient and quick video encoding. The AMD FirePro™ W8000 is a very powerful workstation graphics card available for workflows in CAD/CAE and Media & Entertainment environments. This high-end workstation solution is designed for professionals who require the very best in computational power and performance. It’s up to 4.5X as fast as competitive solutions in singleprecision compute performance due in part to its innovative all-new Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture allowing it to effortlessly process challenging compute workloads.3 In addition, its 3D primitive graphics performance is up to 1.9X as fast as competitor offerings, delivering superior interactivity when working with large, complex models and faster render times.7 Equipped with a massive 4GB GDDR5 frame buffer, the AMD FirePro™ W8000 delivers 1.5X more memory bandwidth than competitive solutions.3 With high performance computing (HPC) features like error correcting code (ECC) memory, it’s the ideal choice for HPC workflows. Using AMD Eyefinity multi-display technology, the AMD FirePro™ W8000 can drive up to four native displays and up to six displays using DisplayPort 1.2, allowing designers unparalleled productivity and flexibility. This very powerful product offers: >> Optimized and certified for Major CAD and M&E applications delivering 3.23 TFLOPs of single precision and 806 GFLOPs of double precision performance with outstanding reliability for the most demanding professional tasks. >> Using a revolutionary 28nm architecture, the AMD FirePro™ W8000 uses Graphics Core Next (GCN) to efficiently balance compute tasks with 3D workloads enabling multi-tasking that is designed to optimize utilization and maximize performance. >> The use of AMD Partially Resident Textures (PRT) and Improved Anisotropic Filtering (AF) enables both streaming of ultra-high resolution datasets and razor sharp image quality, even at a distance from the display. >> The AMD FirePro™ W8000 includes AMD PowerTune and AMD ZeroCore Power technologies that allow for dynamic power management and higher engine clock speeds delivering improved performance and efficient power management. >> GeometryBoost delivers real-time rendering of complex, realistic images at high tessellation speeds, while a Full 30-bit Display Pipeline enables a palette of more than 1.07 billion color values for more accurate color reproduction and superior visual fidelity.1,4 >> AMD Eyefinity technology—a revolutionary multidisplay technology and using DisplayPort 1.2 outputs, AMD FirePro™ W8000 delivers the most immersive graphics/computing. Supporting massive desktop workspaces, for superior productivity, digital signage, and much more, it can drive up to 6 independent displays using DisplayPort 1.2.1,5 >> Support for industry standards—DirectX® 11.1, OpenCL™ 1.1 and OpenGL®4.2—Enables advanced features and optimal performance in leading applications using hardware acceleration.
