It also comes with 32GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, 128MB of Infinity Cache, and a total graphics power of 300W. It features 60 RDNA 2 compute units (CUs), totaling 3,840 cores.
BEST AMD VIDEO CARD FOR MAC PRO PRO
The Radeon Pro W6800X is identical to the W6800 in terms of specs.

They also feature AMD’s Infinity Cache and Infinity Fabric technologies, the former of which gives the card a pool of cache to reduce latency and power consumption, and the latter that provides a high-bandwidth connection between multiple GPUs, making things like two 6800X Duo MPX modules possible. With the Mac Pro’s two MPX expansion slots, you can actually slot in two 6800X Duo modules, giving you a staggering 128GB of GDDR6 memory and up to 60 TFLOPs of computing power.īoth cards are built on AMD’s RDNA 2 architecture, which is featured in RX 6000 consumer graphics cards.

You can pick up either module individually, or you can pick up the W6800X Duo module, which features two W6800X GPUs. The two cards available are the AMD Radeon Pro 6800X and Radeon Pro 6900X. AMD is releasing three new modules for the Mac Pro, sporting two new high-powered graphics cards. And now, AMD and Apple are making our dreams come true. When AMD launched Radeon Pro W6800 workstation graphics card, we said it would make a perfect addition to Apple’s Mac Pro module lineup. It comes in two versions, with and without the numeric keypad for $179 and $149, respectively. If you have a Mac running the new M1 processor (MacBook Air 2020, MacBook Pro 2020, Mac mini 2020, iMac 2021), then you can use this keyboard with your computer with its built-in fingerprint sensor. The W6900X Duo supports eight 4K displays, four 5K displays, or six 6K Pro Display XDR.Īside from the Mac Pro stuff, Apple now is also selling its new Magic Keyboard with Touch ID that debuted with the new 2021 iMac separately. The W6900X and W6800X support up to six 4K displays, three 5K displays, or three 6K Pro Display XDR. Each has four Thunderbolt 3 ports and one HDMI 2.0 port on the back and can also additionally support the two Thunderbolt 3 ports on top of the Mac Pro. This means you can have two W6900X, two W6800X, and even two W6800X Duo inside the same system.Īll of these cards use Apple's proprietary MPX Module form factor. The Radeon Pro W6800X Duo is $4600 while configuring and $5000 when purchased separately.Īpple allows installing two of each of the above mentioned graphics cards inside the Mac Pro. AMD's Infinity Fabric Link connects the two GPU to each other with a bandwidth of 84GB/s in each direction. This truly impressive card features two W6800X GPU on the same board, with each having 32GB of GDDR6 for a total of 64GB video memory. Lastly, there's the Radeon Pro W6800X Duo. The Radeon Pro W6800X is a $2400 option while configuring or $2800 if purchased separately. The Radeon Pro W6800X also comes with 32GB of GDDR6 memory. It has the same 60 compute units and 3840 stream processors with a slightly lower 2087MHz boost clock speed. Next is the Radeon Pro W6800X, which is based on the Radeon RX 6800. The Radeon Pro W6900X is a $5600 extra option while configuring or $6000 when purchased separately. However, one big difference is that the Radeon Pro W6900X has 32GB of GDDR6 memory, twice that of the RX 6900XT. Based on the Radeon RX 6900XT gaming GPU, the Radeon Pro W6900X features the same 80 compute units, 5120 stream processors, and a slightly lower 2171MHz boost clock speed. The Radeon Pro W6900X is the flagship single GPU option. The Mac Pro will now offer users a choice of either a Radeon Pro W6900X, a Radeon Pro W6800X, or a Radeon Pro 6800X Duo in addition to the existing 580X, W5500X, and W5700X options. The company has introduced AMD's latest generation RDNA 2 based graphics cards, replacing the previous Vega II offerings. Apple today updated the graphics card options for its Mac Pro workstation computer.
