Innovation for Today and Tomorrow - Professional Graphics Accelerators

With the ATI FireGL™ graphics accelerators, AMD has added even more innovation with features like native multi-card support, so users can see more and do more with four displays and AutoDetect, which instinctively configures the driver for user’s workflow. As users move between applications, or open new ones the graphics driver settings are automatically configured for maximum performance with varied workflows. AMD provides the graphics horsepower for today's professional applications and looks forward toward tomorrow’s technology innovations.

Unprecedented Visual Fidelity with ATI Unified Shaders and 30-bit display pipeline

Unified Shaders maximize graphics throughput by utilizing all the processing power for whatever task is being performed. Intelligent management of computation resources enables real-time rendering of more complex and realistic images. Designed with a 10-bit display pipeline and High Dynamic Range, ATI FireGL professional graphics accelerators can produce over one billion colors for the most vibrant visual fidelity on 30-bit displays.

World Class Performance, Reliability, and Support

ATI FireGL workstation graphics accelerators are thoroughly tested and certified with major Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Digital Content Creation (DCC) applications ensuring a high level of reliability and performance. ATI FireGL unified drivers simplifies installation, deployment and maintenance. AMD offers direct customer access to a dedicated professional class technical support team.
