Specifications for the new AMD Radeon Pro-series graphics boards compared with the previous generation AMD
#AMD RADEON PRO WX 2100 WINDOWS 10#
We ran version 12 of the SPECviewperf benchmark () using the same workstation as in our previous reviews of the new AMD and NVIDIA GPUs-a BOXX workstation () equipped with an Intel Core i7-6700K quad-core CPU, 16GB of memory and a 1TB PCIe SSD, running the latest version of Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (see NVIDIA Quadro Review: Super Computer Graphics). Testing the New Boardsīecause AMD sent us both boards, we were able to perform our own tests.
Power consumption for the WX 3100 is also quite low-just 50 watts. Although it runs its memory at the same 1500MHz clock rate and 6Gb/second memory data rate as the WX 2100, the WX 3100 achieves a maximum memory bandwidth of 96GB/second. At 35 watts, the Radeon Pro WX 2100 is still frugal but does use a bit more power.Īt $199, the AMD Radeon Pro WX 3100 comes with 4GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit interface. Although its predecessor-the FirePro W2100 (hosting five compute units for a total of 320 stream processors)-used a 128-bit memory interface, it achieved a maximum memory bandwidth of 28.8 GB/second, while consuming just 26 watts. This enables the WX 2100 to deliver a maximum memory bandwidth of 48GB/second. With an MSRP of $149, the AMD Radeon Pro WX 2100 comes with 2GB of GDDR5 memory on a 64-bit interface. In fact, the only significant internal difference is the memory configuration. And both boards provide native support for 10-bits per color channel, for an effective 30-bits per pixel. The GPUs in both boards run at a peak clock rate of 1219MHz to deliver performance of up to 1.25 TFLOPS (single-precision). Internally, both boards use the same Polaris GPU, with eight compute units, for a total of 512 stream processors. SPECviewperf performance of the new WX 2100 and WX 3100 compared with an older-generation AMD FirePro board. In fact, the only way to visually tell them apart is by the model number emblazoned on the side of the metallic blue fan housing. The WX 2100 and WX 3100 can each drive up to three 4K displays at 60Hz or one 5K display at 30Hz. Both boards offer two mini-DisplayPorts and a single DisplayPort 1.4 connection, and come with a minDP-to-DVI SL adapter. bracket to facilitate mounting in a standard workstation.
Both are single-slot, low-profile boards, measuring just 2.75圆.68 in.-designed to fit into the latest small form factor workstations-with a 4.38-in.
The two new boards are quite similar inside and out. AMD PowerTune dynamically optimizes GPU power usage and AMD ZeroCore Power technology significantly reduces power consumption when idle. Both also support AMD’s power monitoring and management technologies. The Radeon Pro WX 2100 and WX 3100 are based on the same fourth-generation Graphic Core Next (GCN) 14nm architecture. The Radeon Pro WX 2100 and WX 3100 entry-level workstation graphics cards are said to have performance improvements of up to 2X over the company’s previous generation AMD FirePro products, AMD reports.
