AMD now offers a dual-GPU graphics card designed for professionals: the Polaris-architecture-based Radeon Pro Duo. Built on the capabilities of the Radeon Pro WX 7100, the Radeon Pro Duo professional graphics card is designed for media and entertainment, broadcast, and design and manufacturing workflows.
The Radeon Pro Duo is equipped with 32GB of ultra-fast GDDR5 memory to handle larger data sets, more intricate 3D models, higher resolution videos and complex assemblies with ease, according to the company. Operating at a max power of 250W, the Radeon Pro Duo harnesses a total of 72 compute units (4608 stream processors) for a combined performance of up to 11.45 TFLOPS of single-precision compute performance on one board. The Radeon Pro Duo enables professionals to work up to four 4K monitors at 60Hz, drive the latest 8K single monitor display at 30Hz using a single cable or drive an 8K display at 60Hz using a dual cable solution.
The Radeon Pro Duo’s distinct dual-GPU design gives professionals the flexibility to divide and conquer their workloads, enabling smooth multi-tasking between applications by committing GPU resources to each.
Radeon Pro Duo professional graphics card leverages the power of two GPUs to render out separate images for each eye. AMD’s LiquidVR technologies are also supported by real-time engines, including Unity and Unreal, to help ensure smooth, comfortable, and responsive VR experiences on Radeon Pro Duo, according to the company.
The Radeon Pro Duo is designed to meet the stringent requirements of workstation form factors, comes with 24/7 support and is bolstered by professional-grade software certified across applications for media, entertainment, CAD and engineering.
