EXCLUSIVE - AMD FIREGL V7600 Professional Graphic's Card Review

The FireGL V7600 is the mainstay replacement of the FireGL V7200 of the Mid Range professional graphic’s card arena. Its direct competition has been aimed squarely at both the NVIDIA Quadro FX 3500 and NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600. AMD’s FireGL Team have been extremely clever in the positioning of this new range of cards. 1 Card at each level of the market place, and so far the cards shown here have excelled in raw performance and total stability across the board. Over the next few weeks we will be seeing the final cards – The FireGL V8600 and FireGL V8650 in the range. These cards too are going to be extremely interesting as they have many features to offer the Extreme High End User.

This exclusive look today we get the chance of looking at the new High End range level card the FireGL V7600. When we were first advised of this new cards arrival here and what it had hidden up its sleeve as we state earlier to finally show what the new FireGL V7600 Card could achieve against the more powerful NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600 at the Ultra High End Level. The NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600 has a full 67.2GB/s against the FireGL V7600 with its 51GB/s memory bandwidth and see just how much performance the FireGL V7600 could catch up here. As on the first outings of the FireGL V7600 siblings they showed in huge amounts of promise. Will the FireGL V7600 show the same sort of performance today that we have seen in the past?

Briefly lets compare both The AMD FireGL V7600 High End Professional Graphic's Card and the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4600 Ultra High-End Professional Graphic's Card
