- Oil & Gas
28nm Graphic Core Next (GCN) Architecture
The new 28nm GCN Architecture with more efficient process technology puts more transistors in less space, enabling a dramatic increase in processing power and graphics performance.
- Each compute unit can execute instructions from multiple kernels at once
- Design for high-utilization, high-throughput, and multi-tasking
- Dual geometry Engines for faster triangle (“primitive”) processing
- First GPU family to fully support OpenCL 1.2 and DirectX 11
Full 30-Bit Display Pipeline
With a full 30-bit display pipeline producing more than one billion colors (10-bit per RGB component). The AMD FirePro™ is ideally suited for applications that benefit from accurate color reproduction and superior visual quality.
PowerTune
This state of the art power management technology provides direct control over GPU power usage. Applications enjoy ultimate performance with dynamic clock optimization, while minimizing workstation energy usage.
AMD ZeroCore Power Technology
AMD ZeroCore Power Technology is an AMD exclusive innovation. Up to 95% idle power reduction by shutting down GPU.
Quad HD Display Support (4K Support)
4K (4096 x 2160-pixel) support for ultra-high-resolution display devices and advanced configurations through DisplayPort 1.2 and AMD Catalyst Pro drivers ensures future-forward compatibility for advanced workflows.
Projector Overlap Support
Easily refine display alignment settings when configuring multiple, high resolution display devices or projectors.
Discrete Digital Multi-Point Audio (DDMA)
DisplayPort 1.2 simultaneously outputs multiple, independent audio streams.
Bezel Compensation
Stretch display resolutions to prevent bezel interference and image distortion when displaying a single large image across multiple displays.
Partially Resident Texture (PRT)
Graphics memory behaves as a hardware-managed cache. Data can be streamed in on demand.
Video Codec Engine (VCE)
Powerful, “fixed-function” multi-stream hardware dramatically improves the performance of H.264 HD encoding for a range of applications and pipelines.
HydraVision
Use HydraVision to manage desktop displays and workspaces in multi-display environments:
- Explicitly set the behavior of pop-up windows and dialogs in different applications though Desktop Manager.
- Provide multiple layers of the desktop workspace through Multi Desktop.
- Restrict application window placement across multiple desktops through HydraGrid.
Display Output Post Processing
Display Output Post Processing, or D.O.P.P., provides software applications with access to a FirePro GPU’s framebuffer before content reaches the card’s signal output stage. This functionality enables ISVs and OEMs with added flexibility and performance they can leverage to create new, exciting and innovative methods for creating and displaying visual content.
AutoDetect Technology
AMD FirePro™ products incorporate a unique AutoDetect technology. As users open new 3D applications, or move between them, optimized AMD FirePro™ graphics driver settings are automatically configured for maximum performance, no matter what the user’s workflow demands.
Low Power Consumption
AMD is devoted to saving energy, and see to it that their products provide customers with the highest efficiency possible through sophisticated design. AMD is working with their customers to protect Earth’s vital resources. AMD’s FirePro™ workstation graphics cards is your best multi-monitor systems and low-cost electricity idea.
Low Profile Design
Enables flexible installation in a variety of computing systems, from small form factors to full-height systems.

Pros: Solid video card for professionals.
Support for up to 2 Displays | Display Port or DVI | 2G DDR3 | 4K | 3D: Certified for many CAD/CAE applications, this high resolution video card is a great choice. Support for 4k resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 when using DisplayPort v1.2 monitors and cables.
DISPLAY CAPABILITIES
DisplayPort: 2x Full Sized DisplayPort v1.2a
Max DisplayPort 1.2a Resolution: 4096 x 2160
Max DisplayPort 1.1 Resolution: 2560 x 1600
Max DVI (with DP to DVI adapters): 1920 x 1200
To obtain the max resolutions above, monitors must also support that resolution.
1 x DisplayPort to DVI (passive) adapter cable included for connecting one DVI monitor.
Note this card is also certified for many CAD applications.
NTI Cons: None really.

Pros: Handles non-gaming 4K nicely. Easy, plug and play installation on Windows 10. Cheap. Cons: High pitch whine of the fan (which I guess is unavoidable) Overall Review: I wanted to be able to see 4K on my new monitor (LG 32UD59-B 32″- under $500) and it works well for my purposes. I am not a gamer, but I do have my desktop set to do my work on and offline, while watching OTA live and recorded TV in one section of the screen. All works perfectly. The only complaint is a high pitched whine from the card fan. I would have installed a fanless 4K solution, but such cards take up two slots, and I couldn’t spare an extra slot. I remedied this by taking the guts out of the computer and I moved them to a different case (Antec Mini P180- a tank of a case, with much in sound insulation). Overall, I am quite pleased.
