AMD FirePro V5900 Pro Reviews

HotHardware‘s review Edit

The AMD FirePro V5900 will launch at a retail price of $599 and replaces the V5800 as the premiere mid-range FirePro model. In the past, we've said that the multiple monitor Eyefinity technology found throughout the latest FirePro line is one of its greatest strengths, and we believe that statement remains true today. If you're looking for a low power, multiple monitor solution for your 3D animation and rendering workloads, definitely check out the new FirePro V7900 and V5900 cards from AMD.

The AMD FirePro V5900 is expected to launch today with an MSRP of $599 USD, which is noticeably higher than the retail price of the current FirePro V5800 that is at approximately $430. While there is a sizable price difference, the initial Linux test results do show the FirePro V5900 as being noticeably faster than the previous Juniper part. In some workloads, the V5900 is even comparable to the FirePro V7800, which is currently priced at $630. Other differences for the FirePro V5900 compared to the FirePro V5800 is that the memory interface is upped from 128-bit to 256-bit, the new AMD GeometryBoost Technology, the video memory capacity has been doubled to 2GB, and PCI Express 2.1 (instead of PCI-E 2.0) compliance.

The FirePro V7900 and V5900 launch from AMD based on the Cayman GPU is a successful one that breathes a bit of life into a somewhat stagnant market that hasn't seen change in about a year. Killer features like Eyefinity keep AMD ahead of the curve as well. Will NVIDIA decide to answer back with price cuts or newer models? They don't have a new GPU design ready for professional implementation but I wouldn't be surprised to see the other green team with something up their sleeve.
