AMD Radeon Pro W5500 Professional Graphics Card Review

LuxMark 3.1

OpenCL is a platform for harnessing GPU power for activities other than real-time 3D rendering to screen, also known as GPGPU. Unlike NVIDIA’s CUDA platform, OpenCL is open source and can be ported to anything with processing power. So drivers are available for CPUs as well, both from Intel and AMD. NVIDIA's graphics cards also support OpenCL, albeit an earlier version (1.2) than the AMD cards, which support version 2.0.

A popular tool for testing OpenCL performance is LuxMark. We rendered the most gruelling Hotel Lobby scene.

None of these three cards are great for OpenCL GPGPU acceleration, but here the P2200 is at least better than the W5500 – 42 per cent better.
