Yet another leak has appeared on the internet, and this time around we get to see the first-ever performance leak of the AMD’s upcoming Radeon PRO W6800 workstation graphics card. Courtesy of the Geek bench database, the specifications of the upcoming product have also been leaked.
AMD recently teased its Radeon PRO W6000 series graphics cards based on the RDNA 2 GPU architecture and according to sources, we can expect a grand reveal next week. The GPU was benchmarked in the Geekbench OpenCL tests, and it boasted a score of 137230 points which puts it slightly faster than the Radeon RX 6800 and the NVIDIA RTX 3070 graphics cards.
According to sources, the AMD Radeon Pro W6800 was tested on an AMD Ryzen 9 5900X system which featured 16 GB of DDR4 memory. The GPU is configured with 32 GB of GDDR6 VRAM that operates across a 256-bit wide bus interface. Sources indicate that a bandwidth of 512 GB/s in addition to the 128 MB of Infinity Cache can be expected from the new GPU.
The database also revealed that the card has a total Compute Unit count of 30 but that’s incorrect as that would put the total number of cores at 1920. So the actual Compute Units contained by the card will be a total of 3840 stream processors. The max score clock was reported at 2.55 GHz.
