ATI FirePro V8700 Pro Reviews

phoronix‘s review Edit

While the fglrx / Catalyst Linux driver was originally just designed for the ATI FireGL products, and since has expanded into supporting graphics cards as the Linux desktop user-base grows, the workstation support is still very much a focal point for their Linux driver teams. The ATI FirePro V8700 is well supported when using AMD's Catalyst Linux driver with DisplayPort capabilities, PowerPlay, OpenGL 3.0, and other features. With the Radeon HD 4870 having been introduced with Linux support from the first day back in July, the RV770XT support was already well tuned by the time the FirePro V8700 was introduced in September.

Tom's Hardware‘s review Edit

After careful evaluation of the benchmark results, we conclude that the ATI FirePro V8700 is just a hair faster in several categories than its predecessor, the V8600. Looking at the big picture level, we don't see any sweeping or major performance improvements from this new hardware. Given all of these observations, the pricing on this card makes it a very good deal for the money, even though a lot of money is involved.
