High-End Workstation Graphics Shootout - AMD FireGL V8650 Vs. NVIDIA QuadroFX 5600

SPEC ViewPerf 10


Workstation OpenGL Performance
Higher Numbers Are Better



 

 

 

 

Our first set of Viewperf 10 numbers look fairly mixed between our three high-end cards.  For these tests, the extra memory capacities of these cards don’t make a huge difference, as seen by the architecturally similar V7600 and V8650 pushing very similar numbers.

The QuadroFX 5600 puts up solid results, especially in Catia, where it has a solid lead over the ATI cards.   ATI’s FireGL V8650 does put up the best performance in the all-important Maya benchmark, which coincides with the Maya benchmarks we ran prior.
