AMD Launches Radeon Pro W5700 Based on 7nm NAVI
The AMD Radeon Pro W5700 graphics card is powered by Radeon Pro Software for Enterprise 19.Q4, AMD’s enterprise-grade software that is stress-tested to be ready for demanding 24/7 environments, with extensive OEM platform testing and comprehensive ISV certification testing delivering the quality professionals demand.
AMD announced the AMD Radeon Pro W5700, the world’s first 7nm professional PC workstation graphics card. It delivers new levels of performance and advanced features that enable 3D designers, architects and engineers to visualize, review and interact with their designs in real time, dramatically accelerating decision-making processes and product development cycles. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700 workstation graphics card features the high-performance, energy-efficient AMD RDNA architecture and state-of-the-art GDDR6 memory to handle large models and datasets, and is the first PC workstation graphics card to support high-bandwidth PCIe® 4.0 technology. It is ideal for professionals who push performance beyond traditional 3D design by generating photorealistic renders of their concepts and reviewing virtual prototypes of their designs in virtual reality (VR) environments.
“Today’s professionals need high-performance professional graphics hardware to better interact with their product concepts and make more informed decisions sooner in the design process,” said Scott Herkelman, corporate vice president and general manager, Radeon™
Key capabilities and features of the AMD Radeon™ Pro W5700 graphics card include:
- High-Performance AMD RDNA Architecture – Features a redesigned geometry engine and compute units, delivering up to 25 percent higher performance-per-clock1 and up to 41 percent higher average performance-per-watt2 than the previous-generation Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture.
- Exceptional Power Efficiency – AMD Radeon™ Pro Software for Enterprise’s intelligent power optimization, coupled with the power-efficient AMD RDNA architecture and 7nm process technology, enables the Radeon™ Pro W5700 graphics card to provide up to 18 percent better system efficiency than the competitive product3.
- Accelerated CPU/GPU Multitasking – Provides outstanding multitasking performance even in the most demanding situations, such as continuing to model while rendering a visualization in the background, providing up to 5.6X the application workflow performance with CPU load than the competition in the SPECviewperf® 13 benchmark4.
- Professional-grade Software – AMD Radeon™ Pro Software for Enterprise delivers professional-grade quality, continuous performance improvements and robust security as well as industry-leading features, including AMD Remote Workstation5 that allows professionals to work virtually from anywhere with feature and performance parity with the workstation GPU on their desk6.
- Innovative VR Software Features – AMD Radeon™ ReLive for VR enables professionals using AMD Radeon™ Pro W5700 graphics cards to wirelessly visualize their creations with VR-capable applications and select standalone VR headsets, such as the HTC VIVE Focus™ Plus7.
- High-bandwidth PCIe® 4.0 – The AMD Radeon™ Pro W5700 is the first PC workstation graphics card to support PCIe® 4.0, delivering double the bandwidth of PCIe® 3.0 to enable smooth performance for GPU-intensive applications.
- Professional Application Certification – Optimized and certified with leading Design and Manufacturing and Architecture, Engineering and Construction applications to deliver the stability and reliability required by workstation professionals. The list of Radeon™ Pro Software certified ISV applications can be found here.
- High-speed USB-C® – The AMD Radeon™ Pro W5700 is the first PC workstation graphics card to include a USB-C® connector, supporting a growing selection of USB-C® based monitors and head-mounted displays (HMD).

because it's the inexpensive 57** serie, not the big one.
there will be higher model.
Weird how they use the cut down version of the Navi gpu instead of the full fat 40 CU gpu.

I am going to claim "False advertising" here based on the USB C claim, this card is a
Quadro competitor,
Quadro RTX beat it to having a usb-c port.
Nice try AMD, but BS is BS.

Quadro competitor,

I'm wondering about this... Looking into the Qaudro, Nvidia use the VirtualLink standard for their USB-C or rather more accurately, Type-C port/connector and it seems that port will only operate in a VirtualLink configuration or Displayport configuration and they don't market it specifically as a USB port and seemingly, you can't use standard usb-c cables, or rather usb-c cables that have unshielded usb2 wires and depending on the use of the port, orientation of the cable may not be reversible either? (Quirk of VirtualLink? I've never used or seen VirtualLink in operation so I can't really comment if this is true or not) but this is at least what the wikipedia page says anyway https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualLink
This press release though, AMD are marketing the port specifically as a USB-C high speed port rather than as a VirtualLink port, perhaps this AMD card may be able to connect other devices or act as a USB host? Is it possible for the Port on the Quadro to act as a USB host?
So, anyone with experience or knowledge of graphics cards with Type-C ports, can they be used as a standard USB host? Or only under certain situations, such as video output etc?
Edit: Or it could just be meant to reference that it's AMDs first card with a USB Type-C in which case the press release would need to be amended in that case.

Virtualink IS an altmode
the USB Root controller is a standard USB 3.x device with all usb3 features, it can connect HMD's, USB3 hubs, storage adapters, controllers, phones, input devices and as its a Type C with a Type C PPM driver, it can handle the reversible cabling just dandy.
The only thing nvidia's doesn't do is Thunderbolt.

This is AMD trying to pull the wool.
AMD aren't that careless.
