AMD FirePro V8800 100-505603 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFire Supported Full Height / Full Length Workstation Video Card

Pros: handles everything you throw at it, autocad, sketchup, Thea render

Cons: none

Pros: This thing can crunch numbers and make opengl programs beg for mercy. Great for entertainment setups that use massive resolutions.

Cons: 1. Updated drivers caused computer to crash during monitor configuration. 2. Configuration is 10 times harder than nvidia's quadro. 3. Little to none stereoscopic support. 4. No support for stereoscopic LCD monitors with 120hz. 5. Stereoscopic port is worthless unless you have a DLP screen. 6. Expensive for shoddy driver support.

Overall Review: This was a headache to set up. I have never used an ATI product and this will probably be my last if I don't find it any more better than the Quadro 4000.

Pros: minus-0-none. My old OC'd gtx260 outperformed this card in every aspect in CAD 3D (SolidWorks and Solidedge) even this one was in lower res : 1920x1200 comparing to 2560x1600 old card.

Cons: Could not get 2560x1600 resolution to display in catalyst control center at all for gateway XHD3000 put back an old GTX260 and all was OK with 2560x1600 Called support: you need to use dual-link displayport to DVI adapter. I do have it!!! support, level 2, was 0 next to nothing. waited 30min-45min...for nothing, what a .... whatever ... Returning product and going back to NVIDIA

Overall Review: Have an old GTX 260 and wanted to try new high end workstation card. what i was thinking? going to ATI. Never again ATI. I'll stick to something that works. All www reviews got me to try v8800, well it did not work for me......back to SQ1. I am neigher NV or ATI fan. Just need somehting that works ....

Pros: Are you serious right now? This isn't a video gaming card. Do some research before you give it a horrible review...

Cons: none.

Pros: This monster has got more computing power than the entire Apollo Program ever had. If you must run four 30-inch 4.1MP monitors simultaneously, this is the card for it.

Cons: Max. energy consumption at 208 Watts sounds a tad excessive. Having 4 x DisplayPorts is of no great benefit if you want to connect projectors to this thing, since even pricey DCI-Class projectors use only SDI and DVI ports, and the less expensive ones use DVI, HDMI, and VGA. This card hasn't got any of those. A graphics cards at this astronomical price point should have more than just one type of connectivity -- i.e. DisplayPort 4-times over. Would have been a whole lot better for most folks if it came with 2 x DVI and 2 x DP. Instead, you are going to to have to be using all sorts of adapters and converters like the Apple folks always do.

Overall Review: Does anyone know where the 3-pin DIN standard "Stereo 3D Connector" connects to? Could not figure that one out.

Pros: 1600 Stream Processing Units 2GB VRAM on a 512 bit Ring-Bus (this particular one says 256 bit interface, which is contrary to AMD's specs; though it should be noted that AMD is well known for releasing several versions of the same piece of hardware) DirectX 11 OpenGL 3.2 OpenCL 1.0 Outperforms current Fermi cores (NVidia) 9 out of 10

Cons: $1360 price tag? A little out of my price range at the moment...but only for the moment.

Overall Review: With all workstation applications and render agents moving towards the use solely of the GPU, this thing is ahead of the pack in every way. Based on the proven CyprusXT core, this workstation card boasts the most powerful engine currently on the planet. $1360 may seem like too much coinage, but considering the benefits and performance weighed against the cost? It's a bargain. Thank you, Newegg, for having such an amazing product for purchase. I will be buying this as soon as my finances allow and I will most likely purchase it right here, on Newegg, as their service and support have, thus far, been unmatched.
