AMD FirePro W7000: specs and benchmarks

AMD started FirePro W7000 sales 13 June 2012 at a recommended price of $899. This is GCN 1.0 architecture desktop card based on 28 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 4 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 4.8 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 153.6 GB / s.

Compatibility-wise, this is 1-slot card attached via PCIe 3.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 242 mm. 1x 6-pin power connector is required, and power consumption is at 350 Watt.

It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 10.04 percent of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 SLI Mobile.

Of FirePro W7000's architecture, market type and release date.

FirePro W7000's general performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core clock, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of FirePro W7000's performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider its benchmark and gaming test results.

Information on FirePro W7000's compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Parameters of memory installed on FirePro W7000: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors don't have dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM.
