AMD Expands RDNA 3 Radeon Pro GPU Lineup With W7600 & W7500 8 GB Graphics Cards

Today, AMD has announced the expansion of its Radeon Pro "RDNA 3" GPU family with new entry-level W7600 & W7500 graphics cards.

AMD Radeon Pro W7600 & W7500 GPUs Bring RDNA 3 Architecture To Mainstream Professionals

The AMD Radeon Pro W7600 & W7500 are designed specifically for mainstream professionals and focus on various ranges of workloads which include Media, Entertainment, Design, Manufacturing, Architecture, Engineering & Construction. Both graphics cards utilize AMD's RDNA 3 architecture & deliver incremental performance and brand-new features versus the previous RDNA 2 offerings.

Some of the main features of the lineup include:

• AMD RDNA 3 Architecture – Features redesigned compute units with unified raytracing and AI accelerators, second-generation AMD Infinity Cache technology, and second-generation raytracing technology. It also offers optimizations for AEC, D&M, and M&E workflows for 3D modeling, animation, rendering, video editing, and general multitasking.
• Dedicated AI Acceleration – New AI instructions and increased AI throughput deliver over 2X more performance on average than the previous AMD RDNA 2 architecture.
• 8GB GDDR6 Memory – Allows professionals and creators to effortlessly handle data-intensive tasks and enable amazing ray-traced renderings with incredible details and realism.
• AMD Radiance Display Engine with DisplayPort 2.1 – With 12-bit HDR color support and over 68 billion colors, display outputs support next-generation displays and multi-monitor configuration options, creating an ultra-immersive visual environment.
• AV1 Encode/Decode – Dual encode/decode media engines unlock new multimedia experiences with full AV1 encode/decode support designed for high resolutions, wide color gamut, and high-dynamic range enhancements.
• Optimized Driver Performance and Professional Application Certification – All AMD Radeon PRO workstation graphics are supported by AMD Software: PRO Edition, which provides a modern and intuitive user interface.

AMD Radeon Pro W7600 "RDNA 3" GPU Specifications

Starting with the specifications, we first have the AMD Radeon Pro W7600 which features the Navi 33 GPU with 32 compute units and 2048 stream processors clocked at around 3.0 GHz for up to 20 TFLOPs of FP32 and 40 TFLOPs of FP16 compute performance. The graphics card features a TBP of 127W and is powered by a single 6-pin connector. The card features an 8 GB GDDR6 VRAM capacity that runs across a 128-bit bus interface along with 32 MB of infinity cache, providing up to 288 GB/s of bandwidth. The card comes in a single-slot active-cooled solution which measures 9.5" (241mm).

AMD Radeon Pro W7500 "RDNA 3" GPU Specifications

As for the AMD Radeon Pro W7500, there's the same Navi 33 GPU based on the 6nm process node but in a slightly more cut-down offering that features 28 Compute Units or 1792 stream processors which are clocked around 1.7 GHz. The chip offers 12 TFLOPs of FP32 and 24.3 TFLOPs of FP16 perf in a 69W peak TBP. Since that's under 75W, the card doesn't require any external connectors for its power needs. There's the same memory configuration but the pin speeds for the memory come at a reduced rate of just 11 GB/s which cuts the bandwidth down to 172 GB/s. The card comes in an 8.5-inch single-slot form factor with active cooling.

The purpose of today's launch, is once again, the large majority of customers in the mainstream segment who have been missing out on the RDNA 3 feature set. These graphics cards are backed by a diverse range of Pro-tier AMD Software, Drivers, and compliance within the ROCm ecosystem. In performance comparisons, the Radeon Pro W7600 is compared to the NVIDIA A2000, offering 56% higher performance in real-time ray tracing and 27% higher performance in Autodesk while the Radeon Pro WX 7500 is compared to the NVIDIA T1000.
