Last month I bought Radeon Pro WX 4100 graphics card.<\/p>\n

Not that I needed a gpu for professional tasks, but it seemed to be the best low profile single slot graphics card available at the moment.<\/p>\n

I could not find any kind of reviews about this peculiar graphics card, so I am posting some pictures and benchmarks here.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3702\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is the box, quite fancy.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3706\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"IMG_3707\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the box are the actual card and 4 of miniDP to DP converters.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3708\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A page from the manual<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3712\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This must be the fanciest low profile card ever created.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_3719\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Installed the card in my microserver. The following are some benchmarks that I have run.<\/p>\n

This is the test computer : Xeon E3-1265L V2, Radeon WX4100 on Windows Server 2016 under VMware ESXi with 8GB RAM
\nAnd my desktop for comparison : i7-6700T, GTX1080 on Windows 7 on Windows 7 with 32GB RAM.<\/p>\n

…doesn’t look like a good comparison but still it is enough to show the strong aspects of Radeon Pro anyway.<\/p>\n

The first table is the result of GTX1080 and the second is of WX 4100<\/p>\n

\"creo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Creo_shadedEdges\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Creo_085_planeHidden\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On creo Radeon WX struggled with tasks involving\u00a0shaders because of the GTX1080’s general rendering power.
\nBut on wireframe views Radeon WX beat GTX1080 by far.<\/p>\n

\"snx\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"NX8_suvAdvancedStudio\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On Siemens NX the gaming graphics card was no match for a professional graphics card. WX 4100 outperformed GTX1080 by multiple times of framerate.<\/p>\n

\"sw\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"SW2012_rallyCar_ShadedEdges\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On Solidworks similar to Creo using only the shaders favored GTX1080 but anytime when wireframe is involved WX4100 kept stable framerate but GTX1080 was hampered.<\/p>\n

So this is about it for this review and please leave a comment should there be any questions. But please do remember the golden rule that you must NOT buy a professional card in any case if you are thinking of playing games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
