Designing and constructing buildings and infrastructure are hugely complex tasks. Using the right technologies is critical to create smarter designs, identify risks, and enable remote collaboration. Without them, projects can exhaust your time and resources without showback.
Visual computing offers hands-on capabilities to boost design productivity and creativity everywhere. Architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industries are using visualization to optimize how they work, collaborate, and make vital operational decisions. An influx of new technologies such as real-time ray tracing, 3D simulation, VR, and AI are unlocking greater opportunities to succeed. However, many AEC firms are struggling to manage these demanding applications.
As projects become increasingly complex, AEC firms need better tools to help them meet customer demands and stay ahead of competitors. Forward-thinking firms are already using professional graphics cards to enhance their work. But with so many options on the market (on top of time and budgetary constraints), firms need to know—what’s the best option?
AMD wants to change all that to jumpstart a new era of AEC. AMD believes in empowering you to work faster and smarter, not harder. That’s why we offer a visual computing experience that is fast, easy, and incredible.
AMD Radeon™ PRO Graphics Cards are built to support your creative vision with a powerful blend of enterprise-grade GPUs, efficiency, reliability, and low latency for running the most complex AEC workloads. The latest generation is based on AMD RDNA™ 3 Architecture and features a unique chiplet design that delivers unmatched price-performance. Radeon PRO is the world’s first GPU with chiplet technology. You gain up to 48GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory to create complex designs and renderings with higher resolutions. Accomplishing your projects has never been easier, thanks to real-world multitasking performance and incredible power efficiency.
Workstations featuring Radeon PRO GPUs have the capabilities you need to create and collaborate with ease:
- GPU acceleration: Ramp up processing performance and speed for critical design and engineering workflows
- Project management made easy: Visualize photorealistic architectural, engineering, and construction environments while completing other tasks
- Resources on demand: Load enormous 3D scenes, utilize real-time effects, take advantage of AI-enabled features, and encode/decode workloads simultaneously
AMD Radeon™ ProRender is a powerful physically-based rendering engine that enables creative professionals to produce stunningly photorealistic images.
