AMD Turns Up the Heat with ATI FirePro V8750

If we compare it to NVIDIA’s present cards, the FirePro V8750 beats the Quadro FX 4800 all ends up in terms of speed.

--------------

Where exactly we get that from ?

The figures in terms of clock count/bandwidth/memory don't mean anything. This would be like comparing a motorola ppc with an intel cpu.

Professional CAD bench would be the thing to test as we can't test cuda performance on both cards with some Adobe stuff.
 
AMD claim that if we compare it to NVIDIA’s present cards, the FirePro V8750 beats the Quadro FX 4800 all ends up in terms of speed.

Which is more accurate.

I mean it could very well beat it at CAD operation, but there is nothing presented that they back the claim with. Which is pretty serious being as these cards purchased by professionals for professional reasons, tend to cost high dollar.

Them simply saying it's "faster" is not quite good enough.

For all we know they could very well be saying it's faster in terms of clock/bandwidth.

Which is similar to staking a claim that a Pentium4 clocks at 3.2ghz stock so it's gotta be better than a x2 @ 2.4ghz.
 
How much better would this perform on cad software or even gaming (crysis maybe :D) compared to a consumer gpu, e.g nVidia gtx 295 or maybe a Ati 4870x2? Just wanted to kno the difference =]
 
Professional cards rarely game better than gaming cards, but generall cost atleast 2+x more.

How they perform ? We don't know, email AMD I guess.
 
I am finding this too expensive to be honest. In the announcement, there wa nothing on DX 11 support. I thought ATI were a lot cheaper too.. Oh well
 
This really is a professional card. Although it may use Dx11, as it becomes the progressive standard, whether it had Dx10 or Dx10.1 or Dx11, bears little consequence on the card as the tool it's intended for.
