The new graphics solutions, AMD increase productivity of powerful workstations. AMD FirePro 2270 and ATI FirePro V5800 DVI cards provide the flexibility needed professionals for effective visualization. The company directs its new proposals at professionals in medicine, finance, engineering and design, working with multiple applications simultaneously.
AMD FirePro 2270 is the only low-profile graphics solution with passive cooling to AMD in the professional segment. Card supports working with two displays and an energy efficient design, consuming a maximum of 15 watts with an average consumption only 10 watts. In doing so she effectively handle multi-tasking workload, freeing the CPU resource. There are ports DisplayPort, DVI and VGA for integration into existing systems.
ATI FirePro V5800 DVI offers professional graphics performance needed for two DVI display with high resolution. Users can “pitch” an image of both screens larger area for visualization and enhanced productivity. The solution provides the necessary bandwidth for 30-bit display with improved color reproduction and maintenance of “packed pixel” mode for two 5MP screen applications in medicine.

PCI-E is already an established standard for graphics slot without alternative, while the AGP remained in the past. Many users have computers with AGP slot, especially in poor countries like Bulgaria. The main reason for changing the home machine is often need for more powerful video card with Pixel Shader 3.0 and up, especially for games, but often for 3D modeling or comfortably watching HDTV movies.
Marketingovite techniques cheerfully assure us that the new standard PCI-E, providing almost twice as good speed (16x against 8x). However, whether this is really the case?
We will check this with the same two features from the video card is AGP one conversion in the other PCI-E. The models are NVidia GeForce 6600 256MB DDR.
