Designed for intense graphic workflows and massive data-sets, the AMD Radeon Pro SSG Graphics Card features 2TB of onboard NVME SSD cache in addition to its 16GB HBM2 frame-buffer. Having a dedicated SSD cache allows the card to allocate storage using AMD's High Bandwidth Cache Controller (HBCC), removing the latency and speed limitations of the PCIe x16 bus and other data protocols. The powerful GPU utilizes the Vega architecture with 4096 stream processors for a peak single-precision computation rate of 12.2 TFLOPS. This power can be harnessed by APIs such as OpenCL, OpenGL, and Vulkan. Using these API's, the GPU can accelerate graphics rendering and computationally intensive video effects. Applications for this card include, but are not limited to, scientific research in artificial intelligence, development and programming, and game, CGI, as well as VR design.
The output panel of this card contains 6 Mini DisplayPort 1.4 outputs for driving multiple displays or large display walls. With the processing power available inside the Radeon Pro SSG card, 8K (8192 x 4320) displays can be driven at up to 30 Hz from a single DisplayPort output and up to 60 Hz from two chained outputs. Connect the Radeon Pro SSG to DisplayPort devices using the four included Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort adapters. An HDMI adapter is included so you can connect to monitors or television displays at resolutions up to DCI 4K (4096 x 2160). For legacy equipment, a DVI adapter is included as well.
To keep this card cool, AMD implemented a blower-style cooler. By using a radial fan, this system forces air over the components and exhausts it out through the front of the card and out of the case. This cooling configuration can be used in crowded workstation environments with multiple GPUs or where space between computer components can be a concern, as hot air is not recirculated back into the case.
