REVIEW: SPECapc for 3ds Max 2011 Professional Benchmark

AMD Professional Graphic Cards on Dual Socket Intel Xeon System


FirePro V7900 performs greatly


AMD FirePro V8800 2GB - 17.53 GPU Score, 26.26 Composite


AMD FirePro V9800 4GB - 17.05 GPU Score, 26.21 Composite - You can see the effects of double-stacked memory (higher latency), as the card lags (but barely) behind FirePro V8800 - which is identical card other than the amount of video memory


Cayman architecture efficiency at work: Even though it has less processing cores, Cayman-based V7900 outperforms older, high-end Cypress-based brothers.


Test in detail: All boards are leveled besides the Large Model GPU, where V7900 leads by 45%

First out the stable door was to be that of the FirePro V7900, it's only been a few weeks since we looked at it and the initial impressions had been good. Today is no different as it romped home within the Large Model GPU test taking everyone by complete surprise.

The new GPU features internal architectural improvements (VLIW4 instead of VLIW5 concept) has made substantial differences against the rest of the pack. The actual Large Model Composite result was a substantial outcome therefore it shows that the FirePro V7900 has got the steam to deliver. We must point out that this driver release is a new beta from AMD.
