Did everyone just forget about these?
I know /g/ primarily cares about consumer gaming cards but the new WX series workstation cards are extremely nice for their cost.
The WX4100 being my favorite right now, sub 300$ for a 50w, low profile card that can power 4x 4k displays, 2.4tfps, and is single slot
Its pretty cool.
The 5100 is a step up and only takes 75w, meaning a rackmount style workstation with no pci power mounts could do shitloads of them, also being single slot
The 7100 i think is overpriced, and it has a 150w power draw which killed them in the multi gpu workstation market.

I don't know, i have a spare dual xeon 5140 setup to be used as a rendering machine, wuold these card do a nice job or should i buy some old firepro?
>>58091371
why would you buy one? they aren't meant for consumers
>$300 and slower than a GTX 1050 Ti
>>58091473
>5100
Affordable, efficient, small and quite powerful.
Why wouldn't someone buy it?
To me it looks perfect for a multi-monitor setup that isn't meant for gaming.
>>58091494
they aren't even powerful
plus on board graphics are easily capable of multi monitors

>why would you buy one? they aren't meant for consumers
fucking selection auto-quote man i swear
>>58091447
id say for what those cpu's are capable, of, an older card would be a better fit, you'd bottleneck one of the modern wx cards
if you were to move up to a more recent xeon, say, single lga 1150, then the wx 4100 would be for you, to create a lightweight, lower power workstation

not everyone here is a consumer
my boss was interested in them to replace the aging cards in our drafting stations
some people here are hobbyists and use these kinds of gpu's too
>>58091494
1050ti is actually slower than this card is, from a specs sheet point of view, its also
>single slot low profile, 50w
though like any workstation gpu, its not going to perform well in games, it was not meant to perform well in games, its meant to perform well in things like video or photo editing
>>58091526
yeah if youre running two monitors, even then they have resolution limits
the cheapest of these cards can do four 4k displays at 60hz

>Believing TFLOPs lies when GTX 1050 Ti destroys a higher clocked RX 460 while this shit is clocked much slower than RX 460
How are pro graphics cards different from consumer end graphics cards?
>>58092770
They don't have gimped half and double precision float performance

>>58091679
I chose the 5140 cause i have them spare from an old server i recovered from my high School, i was willing to spend not more than 300€ (including chassis and PSU)

>he doesn't understand
Its okay, /v/ will accomodate you.
