Case Study: MachStudio Pro and FirePro V9800 change the 3D CGI process

AMD has posted a case study about using MachStudio Pro and the FirePro V9800. MachStudio Pro lets artists, designers, engineers, and technical directors work with 3D lighting, camera views and multi-point perspectives in an interactive non-linear fashion for real-time high-fidelity views as they will appear in the final rendered format.

From the case study: "On board GPU memory is critical and this is just one area where the V9800 scores. Studios need high-quality, high-resolution textures to be able to get cinematic quality results and with the 4 GB V9800 this will be much faster and much easier. A key benefit of the V9800 is the ability to author your shot while utilizing larger assets in the video buffer on the GPU. This translates into higher resolution and higher quality renders all around."

Other case studies are available for:

• Schneider Digital using a videowall to help the Centre for Energy Research to interpret oil and gas field geology
• Dassault Systèmes on using CATIA
• Ventuz Technology for high end authoring of interactive presentations.
