Zoic studios worked with AMD FirePro to create this CG render of ‘Revenge of TMag’ using Autodesk Maya and Mudbox. There is extensive use of hardware tessellation and PTex ( Procedural Texture ) running in a shader. VRay using OpenCL-acceleration was used for lighting and offline final rendering.
Zoic also uses AMD FirePro remote graphics technology for their designers/engineers.
Saphire Professional Graphics ran a performance comparison of the AMD FirePro W5000 vs Nvidia Quadro 2000 in SolidWorks 2013 across rendering modes: Shaded, Shaded with Edges, Shaded + RealView, Shaded with Edges + RealView and Shadow, Shaded RealView + Shadow. The video is annotated with each phase of the test.
Quick Summary: the AMD FirePro W5000 took 1min and 38 seconds. The Nvidia Q2000 took about 3 mins, almost 1.8X times compared to the FirePro W5000.
Wonder what the AMD FirePro / Dell Precision Workstation booth looked like at PTC Live Global? Check out these two pics and the real-time demo showing the performance advantage of AMD FirePro graphics over Nvidia Quadro in PTC Creo 2.0 for both transparency performance and shaded performance.
At this years World Mobile Congress in Barcelona, Stereolize produced interactive presentations for two 70” touch screens that supported several Corning speakers. Ventuz software driven by AMD FirePro graphics enabled a dynamic, interactive presentation.
The AMD FirePro team was in Bangalore, Mumbai and New Delhi speaking to press and partners to discuss the future of professional graphics in India, the real-world professional graphics advantage of AMD FirePro technology and how AMD FirePro is positioned to be the professional graphics market leader in India.
