AMD FirePro RG220A: specs and benchmarks
Summary
AMD started FirePro RG220A sales 1 May 2010. This is a TeraScale architecture desktop card based on 55 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 512 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1.6 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is single-slot card attached via PCIe 2.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 168 mm. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 35 Watt.
We have no data on FirePro RG220A benchmark results.
