AMD started FirePro W7100 sales 12 August 2014. This is a GCN 3.0 architecture desktop card based on 28 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 8 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 5 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 160 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is single-slot card attached via PCIe 3.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 241 mm. 1x 6-pin power connector is required, and power consumption is at 400 Watt.

It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 14.96% of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
