Amd radeon pro v340 announced, graphics with virtualization by mxgpu

AMD has released a press release announcing its new professional graphics card, the Radeon Pro V340. It has dual GPUs and is meant to speed up data center visualization jobs. Let's meet her.

AMD Radeon Pro V340 for CAD, Design, Rendering, and DaaS

This new graphics card was unveiled at the VMWorld event in Las Vegas, and its most important feature is, ironically, the use of two Vega GPUs on a single PCB. Apart from that, it will be equipped with 32GB of high bandwidth HBM2 memory with support for ECC error correction.

The V340 is prepared for the most demanding tasks, and will be able to be used in up to 32 virtual machines at the same time, of 1GB each. For cloud use of rendering tasks, it includes a built-in encoding engine to compress independent video streams in H.264 and H.265 formats.

The graphics card will be compatible with AMD's new MxGPU technology , the first and only hardware-based GPU virtualization solution, which aims to provide virtualized cloud graphics for any device, including tablets and laptops, enabling 3D rendering possibilities from devices. like these ensuring high and consistent performance.

The company mentions as greater advantages of MxGPU the simplicity and scalability that it allows, in addition to the absence of additional costs since it does not need any type of license to use this technology with graphics cards like this Radeon Pro V340.

This dual graphics card has passive cooling, which we assume will be supported by additional cooling in data centers, since it has a consumption of 300W. It also makes use of 2 8-pin PCIe connectors, being slightly crazy data to have 2 GPUs inside.
