ATI FirePro W7000 Retail Graphics Card (4GB, DDR5, PCI-E 3.0)

Price: £147.32
(as of Sep 16,2024 08:27:00 UTC – AMD FirePro W7000 workstation graphics delivers incredible performance, superb visual quality and outstanding multidisplay design experiences to CAD/CAE professionals ─ all from a single-slot solution. Its 3D primitive graphics performance is up to 2.1 times faster than the competing solution, giving designers smoother interactivity when working with complex 3D models and allows them to quickly visualize and render designs. AMD FirePro W7000 offers up to 1.7 times more memory bandwidth than the competing solution, bringing the unmatched application responsiveness that professionals working with advanced visualization, complex models, large data sets and video footage need.
AMD Eyefinity Technology. Industry-leading multi-display technology enabling highly immersive and unrivaled multi-tasking experience across up to six displays, powered by a single AMD FirePro W7000 graphics card
GeometryBoost, Allows the GPU to process geometry data at a rate of twice per clock cycle resulting in a doubling in the rate of primitive and vertex processing. Triangle rates increase two-fold relative to a GPU that does not possess GeometryBoost
DisplayPort 1.2, Simultaneously output multiple, independent audio streams and display content at resolutions beyond standard HD (maximum resolution of 4096×2160).
Energy Efficient Design, AMD PowerTune technology dynamically optimizes GPU power usage and AMD ZeroCore Power technology significantly reduces power consumption at idle

Title: So far so good.
Review: It seems like a good product. Using Autocad at the moment, but will learn Solid Works at some point that will make use of this card as apposed to Autocad that works better with a normal gaming card.

Title: Massive improvement
Review: Made a massive improvement to the performance of my PC when using applications using large CAE models and rendering. Works well with Linux too.

Review: Realizing the full potential of this Workstation Graphics Ninja requires PCI Express 3.0 Support. The card runs quietly and noticeably cooler than its predecessors. The Catalyst Pro drivers seem solid for Windows 7 64 bit and equally stable when used in Windows 8 64 bit Pro using the latest Microsoft certified driver. An ISV certified version has not yet been released as of the date of this review.Photoview 360 and Realview benefit from the computing capabilities this card provides reducing processing time requirements for these kinds of operations. For example in current release Solidworks suites when rendering using all features enabled, such as ambient occlusion, HDR file formats, caustics, higher order antialiasing etc. at 2540×1440 resolutions. Since the card only requires one 6-pin power connector, Crossfire configurations are easier to achieve with lower power requirements. Multi monitor scalability is generally also the market leading solution.Performance is substantially enhanced when compared to using a similar level “gaming-oriented card model.” in 3D modeling CAD applications and may be sufficient for most, instead of current Nvidia SLI solutions employing multiple Quadro 2000 cards (replacing as many as three of certain models, singularly offering bandwidth up to 154 GB/s). Work in Photoshop using multitudes of filters is produced with stunning visual results. Another important consideration is where a single workstation or multiple workstations must be employed to produce frame by frame content, containing HD and Deep Color or 4K Color media content, which requires substantial continuous energy resources to complete tasks.Technical Support for issues not related to the function of the card itself but rather interoperability issues has been remarkable.

Review: I’m a professional 3ds max artist working in architectural visualization, where models routinely run to the millions of polygons.I’ve always built my own systems, and always used consumer-level gaming cards.With AMD’s 50% rebate deal this summer (now defunct), I was able to purchase this card for the price of an upper mid range GeForce, and did so without hesitation on my new workstation.To say the difference is huge is a massive understatement. I can interact with multi-million polygon scenes at decent framerates for the first time, and don’t need to spend nearly as much time hiding and unhiding objects to be able to get my work done.The only negative I’ve experienced so far is a substantial delay when unhiding or cloning objects. I don’t use iRay or other CUDA-based renderers, so the limitation to OpenCL apps doesn’t affect me.
