AMD today announced availability of new AMD Radeon Pro 5000 series GPUs for the updated 27-inch iMac. The new GPUs power a wide variety of graphically intensive applications and workloads, unleashing creativity and productivity for consumer and professional users alike. The new AMD Radeon Pro 5000 series GPUs are built on industry-leading 7 nm process technology and advanced AMD RDNA graphics architecture. They feature up to 40 compute units and up to 16 GB of high-speed GDDR6 memory while delivering up to 7.6 teraflops of single precision (FP32) computational performance.

"AMD Radeon Pro 5000 series GPUs bring new levels of performance and flexibility to the updated 27-inch iMac," said Scott Herkelman, corporate vice president and general manager, Graphics Business Unit at AMD. "The new AMD GPUs offer the optimal combination of compute performance, energy efficiency and outstanding graphics features to power a wide range of applications - from consumer to pro - wherever graphics matter the most."



Key capabilities and features of AMD Radeon Pro 5000 series GPUs include:

• Exceptional compute performance - Up to 7.6 TFLOPS of single-precision (FP32) floating point performance.
• GDDR6 memory - Up to 16 GB of GDDR6 memory with 384 GB/s bandwidth provides ultra-fast transfer speeds to power data-intensive pro applications.
• AMD RDNA architecture - AMD RDNA architecture was designed from the ground up for superior performance and power efficiency. It is built on industry-leading 7 nm FinFET process technology, providing up to 1.5X higher performance per watt compared to the previous-generation graphics architecture

Nice 16GB on a video card - Ill take 2

Someone needs to explain the meaning of the word "exceptional" to apple.

I actually wonder if the the driver situation is the same on Apple, just like its on PC. I think so far, AMD driver for PC is still not in a good condition which is hindering user experience.

To be honest, the RX 5700 is a mid range card. In my opinion its good up to 1440p, so in almost all situations, there is no need for 16GB of VRAM.

What clocks are these running at? These aren't exceptional Apple lol

Not saying there aren't issues, but I've never had one on my Vega 64.

About 1.5 Ghz, 2560 * 2 * 1500 ~= 7.6 TFLOPS.

Late, mid range and it just works. Usually.

Fixed it for you

It's got an Apple logo, that's all the "exceptional" one will ever need.
