Workstation Graphics: 19 Cards Tested In SPECviewperf 12

Features
By published

SPECviewperf 12 sets out to be the standard for evaluating workstation graphics cards by including the latest professional applications, more complex models, and synthetic workloads pulled from important market segments. We test 19 cards in the new suite.

Results: Creo 2

The huge price/performance ratio gaps aren't as pronounced in Creo 2. The smaller FirePro W5000 outperforms its direct competition from Nvidia by almost 28 percent, whereas the FirePro W7000 and the similarly-priced Quadro K4000 post fairly similar numbers. As you can see, the gaming-oriented cards don't do very well at all.
