Sponsored feature: Today’s modern workstation user requires performance, stability, image quality and software certifications for increased productivity. Architects and engineers are expected to use more graphically intense applications than ever before, powered by a reliable system that is always ready to go
The entire AMD Radeon™ Pro graphics card range answers these needs, but goes further by bringing system power efficiencies, thermal efficiencies, and multitasking leadership, fully backed by robust software. AMD professional GPUs are for those who need performance, durability and high quality components for increased reliability.
For most people hardware is only considered when making a new purchase or when something goes wrong. When considering application performance, the GPU should be one of your main priorities. With more software taking advantage of hardware acceleration, the stresses placed on your GPU rise. AMD offers high-performing, affordable GPUs for your architectural or engineering workflows, with a commitment to reliability and quality components.
Multitasking superiority
The accelerated multitasking capabilities of the Radeon™ Pro GPU range continue to beat competing GPUs. A typical scenario where you experience these benefits is when the CPU is being heavily tasked (for example multi-threaded architectural rendering) while the GPU is navigating or modelling in another applications viewport. In these real-world scenarios Radeon™ Pro GPUs will experience a slight decrease in original performance, however it provides up to 10x better application performance compared to the equivalent non-AMD GPUs1. When deadlines are approaching, you do not want your GPU to falter.
Ultra-high resolutions
All Radeon™ Pro GPU’s support DP 1.4, offering modern monitor compatibility such as 8K UHD and High Dynamic Range support. Depending on the GPU model, it can be equipped with standard DisplayPort™, Mini-DisplayPort (mDP) or a combination. Although both connector types are functionally equivalent, mDP enables higher connector density for more displays.
Dependability in critical applications
At the core of AMD professional graphics is an extensive Independent Software Vendor (ISV) certification and application testing process called the Day Zero Certification Program. This helps ensure you enjoy the latest driver benefits (known as AMD Radeon™ Pro Software for Enterprise) combined with certifications on the day of GPU driver release.

Benchmark application and derived metric calculation: the SPECviewperf® 13 benchmark sw-04 viewset was run with Autodesk® 3ds Max® 2019 rendering an AMD internal engine 3d model at 1920 x 1080 with continuous iterations using the Arnold CPU renderer to simulate the application workflow performance with multitasking. Calculated the performance when multitasking as a percentage then calculated the ratio between the two percentages. AMD RADEON™ PRO W5500 RESULTS: AMD Radeon™ Pro W5500 SPECviewperf® 13 benchmark sw-04 viewset average test results score: 138.75 AMD Radeon™ Pro W5500 with SPECviewperf® 13 benchmark sw-04 viewset test results score with Autodesk® 3ds Max® 2019 rendering an AMD internal engine 3d model at 1920 x 1080 with continuous iterations using the Arnold CPU renderer simultaneously average: 86.82 Performance when multitasking: 100 + (86.82- 138.75)/138.75*100) = 62.57% of the workflow performance compared to the performance when not multitasking on the AMD Radeon™ Pro W5500 graphics card. NVIDIA QUADRO® P2200 RESULTS: NVIDIA Quadro® P2200 SPECviewperf® 13 benchmark sw-04 viewset average test results score: 139.76 NVIDIA Quadro® P2200 with SPECviewperf® 13 benchmark sw-04 viewset test results score with Autodesk® 3ds Max® 2019 rendering an AMD internal engine 3d model at 1920 x 1080 with continuous iterations using the Arnold CPU renderer simultaneously average: 7.91 Performance when multitasking: 100 + (7.91- 139.76)/139.76*100) = 5.66% of the workflow performance compared to the performance when not multitasking on the NVIDIA Quadro® P2200 graphics card. Difference in performance while multitasking between the AMD Radeon™ Pro W5500 graphics card and the NVIDIA Quadro® P2200 graphics card (62.57/5.66)-1 = ~10.05x average better application workflow performance for the AMD Radeon™ Pro W5500 graphics card. Scores are based on AMD internal lab measurements and may vary. PC manufacturers may vary configurations, yielding different results. Performance may vary based on use of latest drivers.
