About the AMD Radeon PRO W6800 GPU
The AMD Radeon PRO W6800 is a workstation graphics card that launched in Q2 2021 with a MSRP of $2,249. It is built on the RDNA 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Navi 21) and is manufactured on a 7 nm process.
Memory
The PRO W6800 has 32 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 2,000 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 512 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 PRO W6800 includes 3,840 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 2,075 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,320 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 240 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 96 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 60 ray accelerators dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The PRO W6800 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports mini-DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 600 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 250 W.
Benchmark Performance & Value
The PRO W6800 has the 30th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 42.45% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 44,404 score and $2,249 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 19.74. This is the 86th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
About the AMD Radeon RX 580 Mobile GPU
The AMD Radeon RX 580 Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q2 2017. It is built on the GCN 4.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Polaris 20) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.
Memory
The RX 580 Mobile has 8 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 2,000 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 256 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 RX 580 Mobile includes 2,304 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,000 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,077 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 144 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 100 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.
Benchmark Performance
The RX 580 Mobile has the 143rd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 14.55% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
