Commenting on: ATI FirePro V8800 brings ulta-high performance, DX11, OpenGL 3,4 & Eyefinty to workstation graphics

Posted by Tony DeYoung on April 06, 2010

Ever since the Radeon 5XXX series I've been eagerly waiting for the FirePro professional cards that are based on the Cypress architecture. The , announced today does not disappoint. It clearly takes the crown as the most powerful workstation graphics card on the market. Here's the gist:

  • 1600 stream processors for more than double the computational power of the V8750
  • 2GB of ultra high speed GDDR5 memory
  • Full 30-bit display pipeline (essential for medical imaging, pro video and photo editing)

You didn't comment on the power consumption and noise. Power usage is well in line for the performance you get with this card.

I wonder how Fermi will compare here. http://hothardware.com/Articles/AMD-ATI-FirePro-V8800-Workstation-Graphics-Card/?page=10

Have any of the reviews or AMD reported on CrossFire scaling on the FirePro 8800?
