AMD Radeon Pro W7900 & W7800 announced
The company confirms specs and pricing of Radeon PRO GPUs with RDNA3 architecture.
AMD Radeon Pro W7900 features 96 Compute Units (full Navi 31) combined with 48GB of GDDR6 ECC memory. This is a flagship workstation solution based on the same GPU as the Radeon RX 7900 XTX, currently retailing at $950. The card will offer up to 61 TFLOPS of single precision compute performance, and it will target a max board power of 295 watts. From the looks of it, W7900 is a triple-slot blower design.
At the same time, AMD is launching its Radeon Pro W7800 GPU with 70 Compute Units, and 32GB of GDDR6 ECC ram. This card will have a peak compute performance of 45 TFLOPs, and it is designed to operate within 260W power envelope. Such configuration (4480 Stream Processors and 256-bit) is not used by any Radeon RX 7000 card yet. There is a good reason to expect similar specs from supposed gaming SKU, but of course, with less memory (16GB?) and without error correction.
According to AMD, the advantages of AMD Radeon Pro W7900/7800 series over RTX Ada is support for DisplayPort 2.1 (80 Gb/s), powerful 8K60 AV1 encode/decode media engine, lower power consumption and what may be the most important feature is the price.
AMD is playing big by introducing its first Navi 3X based Radeon Pro series at lower prices than competitors. The W7900 will retail at $3,999 while W7800 will cost $2,499. This is significantly cheaper than RTX 6000 Ada, which has a MSRP of $6,800, but AMD was too quick to note it is actually offered at much higher price right now ($8,615).
The GPU maker confirms that Radeon Pro W7000 will launch this quarter, without specifying the date.
