The Mac Pro's Firepro GPU

AMD FirePro™ D-Series GPUs 

Powering graphics for the new Apple Mac Pro

Dual AMD FirePro™ D-Series GPUs power the graphics in the new Mac Pro and deliver state-of-the-art performance across the board.  Available with 2GB, 3GB or 6GB of dedicated VRAM and up to 2048 stream processors and 7 teraflops of powerful graphics performance.  You’ll be able to do things like seamlessly edit full-resolution 4K video while simultaneously rendering effects in the background — and still have enough power to connect up to three high-resolution 4K displays.

The new Mac Pro is available with three new AMD FirePro™ GPUs:
  • Dual AMD FirePro™ D300 graphics processors with 2GB of GDDR5 VRAM each
    • 1280 stream processors
    • 256-bit-wide memory bus
    • 160GB/s memory bandwidth
    • 2 teraflops performance
  • Dual AMD FirePro™ D500 graphics processors with 3GB of GDDR5 VRAM each
    • 1526 stream processors
    • 384-bit-wide memory bus
    • 240GB/s memory bandwidth
    • 2.2 teraflops performance
  • Dual AMD FirePro™ D700 graphics processors with 6GB of GDDR5 VRAM each
    • 2048 stream processors
    • 384-bit-wide memory bus
    • 264GB/s memory bandwidth
    • 3.5 teraflops performance
Video editing: 4K performance that’s nothing short of spectacular.  Work pixel-for-pixel in 4K, thanks to dual AMD FirePro™ D-series GPUs in the Mac Pro — delivering the breathtaking capability to run three streams of 4K video at once. Combine that with the power to drive up to three 4K displays, process effects in real time and even edit 4K multicam clips, and you have a video editing powerhouse.
3D modeling and animation: The power to work with even the largest models.  Dual AMD FirePro™ D-series GPUs — standard in every Mac Pro — provide up to 12GB of video memory, with up to 528GB/s of memory bandwidth for manipulating complex models with massive geometry and large textures. Work with your models at a whole new level of detail, speed and responsiveness.  Apple Mac Pro works with OpenGL 4.1 in OS X Mavericks to support advanced features like tessellation shaders.
Photography: Edit your images in 4K.  With the new AMD FirePro™ D-Series GPUs in the Mac Pro and powerful multiple-display support in OS X Mavericks, you can work with an image full screen on one display while you work with your photo browser on another. Connect a 4K display — with more than 8 million pixels — and see your photos in more detail than ever before while powerful AMD FirePro™ GPUs let you fly through edits, filters and effects.
GPU computing with OpenCL™. OpenCL™ lets you tap into the parallel computing power of modern GPUs and multicore CPUs to accelerate compute-intensive tasks in your Mac apps. Use OpenCL™ to incorporate advanced numerical and data analytics features, perform cutting-edge image and media processing and deliver accurate physics simulations.  When coupled with the dual workstation-class AMD FirePro™ S-series GPUs with up to 4096 stream processors and 12GB of fast GDDR5 memory, OpenCL enables your applications to harness up to 7 teraflops of computational power.
AMD Eyefinity technology: Your data. In tremendous detail. The ability to run up to three 4K displays lets you visualize every detail of your data in new and exciting ways. That’s nearly 25 million pixels at your command.
