User Manual
Feature Benets
The Radeon™ Pro WX 5100 graphics card is based on the fourth-generation of Graphics Core Next (GCN) GPU architecture and,
like its predecessor, can perform graphic and arithmetic instructions in parallel.
Drive up to two, 5K (5120x2880 pixel resolution) dual-cable displays @ 60 Hz, or a one, single-cable 5K display @ 60 Hz.
Native support for 10-bits per color channel for color-critical tasks. Driving an eective 30-bits per pixel, the Radeon™ Pro WX 5100 is great
for any workload requiring that level of detail and color precision.
HDR READY
High dynamic range (HDR) capability enables visuals that closely match what is familiar to the human eye.
3
Combine up to four Radeon™ Pro WX 5100 workstation graphics cards in a single desktop system and leverage the combined processing power for
personal supercomputing or to work with multiple 4K video streams in real-time, layer in eects, make color corrections and edits on the y.
8GB GDDR5 MEMORY
Allow users to work at extreme levels of speed and responsiveness. With a 256-bit memory interface, users can edit 4K video, layer in multiple eects
and color correct on the y, or load massive assemblies and data sets and manipulate them in real time.
PERFORMANCE
Helps speed up time required to complete single precision operations used within Video Eects and Rendering, Signal Processing, Transcoding and
Digital Rendering applications where high performance takes precedence.
Removes CPU bandwidth and latency bottlenecks, and optimizes communication between GPUs within a system and third party devices like SDI I/O
cards. DirectGMA bypasses any need to traverse the host’s main memory, reducing CPU utilization, avoiding redundant bus transfers, and resulting in
high throughput, low latency data transfers.
Multi-stream hardware H.265 HD encode/decode for power-ecient and quick video encoding and playback.
Radeon™ Pro WX 5100 graphics card supports unique power monitoring and management technologies, and has a maximum power consumption
of 75 Watt TDP. AMD PowerTune technology dynamically optimizes GPU power usage and AMD ZeroCore Power technology signicantly reduces
power consumption at idle.

1. Based on single precision compute performance. As of August 25, 2016, the Radeon™ Pro WX 5100 workstation GPU delivers up to 3.89 TFLOPS of single-precision compute performance at maximum clock speed with a TDP of 75
watts, and the NVIDIA Quadro M2000 delivers 1.3 TFLOPS of single-precision compute performance with a TDP total board power of 75 watts. See https://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2837/quadro-m2000 RPW-8
2. Testing conducted by AMD Performance Labs as of September 2016 on test system described below. PC manufacturers may vary congurations, yielding dierent results. Performance may vary based on use of latest drivers. CPU:
Intel E5-1650 v3 3.50GHz, Memory: 16GB RAM, OS: Win7 64-bit SP1, AMD Driver: 16.40 Beta Nvidia Driver: 368.39 Application: SPECviewperf 12.1, ocial resolution Subtest: snx-02 AMD WX5100 Composite snx-02 score: 76.28
Nvidia Quadro M2000 Composite snx-02 score: 54.05 Performance Dierential: 76.28/54.05 = ~41.13% faster on AMD RPW-13
3. HDR content requires that the system be congured with a fully HDR-ready content chain, including: graphics card, monitor/TV, graphics driver and application. Video content must be graded in HDR and viewed with an HDR-ready
player. Windowed mode content requires operating system support.
4. AMD PowerTune and AMD ZeroCore Power are technologies oered by certain FirePro™ and Radeon™ Pro products, which are designed to intelligently manage GPU power consumption in response to certain GPU load conditions.
Not all products feature all technologies – check with your component or system manufacturer for specic model capabilities. GD-36
5. As of September 2016, certied for DisplayPort™ 1.4 HBR3 and ready for DisplayPort™ 1.4 HDR based on independent verication by DisplayPort™ testing authority. HDR content requires that the system be congured with a fully
HDR-ready content chain, including: graphics card, monitor/TV, graphics driver and application. Video content must be graded in HDR and viewed with an HDR-ready player. Windowed mode content requires operating system support.
