Apple computers have always been the top choice when it comes to graphical intensive works. This time around, Mac Pro users will get a taste of the latest AMD RDNA 2 architecture in the form of Radeon PRO W6000X series GPU.
The high-end GPU upgrade option includes Radeon PRO W6800X, Radeon PRO W6900X, and Radeon PRO W6800X Duo. While these are considered high-end upgrades, it is worth noting that these GPUs are workstation-oriented cards. In other words, there are considered slightly inferior to their gaming-oriented counterparts.
The Radeon PRO W600X series is built on 7nm manufacturing process along with the AMD RDNA 2 architecture which is energy efficient even during high tasked workloads.
Key capabilities and features of AMD Radeon PRO W6000X series GPUs include:
- High-speed GDDR6 memory – Up to 64GB of GDDR6 memory with up to 512 GB/s bandwidth provides ultra-fast transfer speeds to power data-intensive professional applications.
- AMD Infinity Cache – Up to 256MB (total) of last-level data cache integrated on the GPU die is designed to reduce latency and power consumption.
- AMD Infinity Fabric – Provides a high-bandwidth, low latency, direct connection between the local AMD GPUs, enabling high-speed GPU-to-GPU communications designed to satisfy today’s creative workloads.
