About the AMD FirePro W5000 GPU

The AMD FirePro W5000 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q3 2012 with a MSRP of $599. It is built on the GCN 1.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Pitcairn) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The FirePro W5000 has 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 800 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 102.4 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The FirePro W5000 includes 768 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 825 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 48 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The FirePro W5000 is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports DVI, DisplayPort 1.2 display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W.

About the ATI FirePro V5800 GPU

The ATI FirePro V5800 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q2 2010 with a MSRP of $479. It is built on the TeraScale 2 GPU microarchitecture (codename Juniper) and is manufactured on a 40 nm process.

Memory

The FirePro V5800 has 1,024 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,000 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 64 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The FirePro V5800 includes 800 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 700 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 40 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 16 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The FirePro V5800 is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports DVI, DisplayPort 1.1 display connections. ATI recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 74 W.
