![]() Turks also brought with it the rest of feature improvements we saw with the Northern Islands GPUs: primarily support for DisplayPort 1.2 and color calibration in linear space, while UVD 3 is also present for video decoding purposes. With respect to performance Turks moves from 5 SIMDs (400 SPs) to 6 SIMDs (480 SPs), which gives it an immediate 20% compute and texture advantage over Redwood at the same clocks. As you may recall from Turks’ desktop launch, Turks improves on Redwood in a few different ways. In May of this year we saw the introduction of the Cayman based FirePro V7900 and V5900, and now just a bit over 6 months after the Turks based Radeon 65 launched, Turks is getting the professional graphics treatment with the FirePro V4900.Īs Turks was designed to replace the older Redwood GPU, so too is the FirePro V4900 designed to replace the FirePro 3D V4800 (AMD has dropped the 3D moniker). Nowhere is this more evident than their professional graphics lineup, where consumer desktop video cards have transitioned over to professional products at almost 6 months on the dot. ![]() For the last couple of years AMD has been pretty consistent about cascading their GPUs through their entire product line.
