Titan Z vs Ati 9100

BATTLE OF THE GIANTS

We are comparing the two fastest graphic cards in the world

Lets start with the conclusion, rather strange but all the numbers are below.

The Titan Z simply wins. less power consumption and higher speeds and bandwidth results in an overall better card, HOWEVER, the 9100 are still better on some levels. Its kills the Titan Z card in regards to the amount of memory,  because in fact the Titan Z "only" has 6GB ram since its a dual GPU card, the Titan Z compensates with higher memory speed, higher bus speed and the overall memory bandwidth it 2x as high on the Titan Z.  In the shader compartment we also see an almost 2x higher amount, this is extremely important in gaming, but also in hardware rendering, with fx. Iray render in 3ds Max, the speeds in difference are staggering. Lastly the core speed is very interesting, here the 9100 dominates and are a good bit higher. Core speeds are easily changed for overclocking and Nvidia has always provided simple overclocking software. In terms of money and price we'll probably go with Titan Blacks since the Titan Z is too expensive.

AMD FirePro W9100

 Why choose ATI?

The ultimate 4K experience for next-generation workstations
Work at a whole new level of detail, speed, responsiveness and creativity with supercomputing-class performance at your fingertips. Tackle the most complex modeling and simulation projects with speed and agility, or fly through edits, filters and color corrections, and process multiple effects in real-time.

AMD FirePro™ W9100 Professional Graphics

 

5.24 TFLOPS of peak single-precision floating-point performance

Helps speed up time required to complete single precision operations used within simulations, video enhancement, signal processing, video transcoding and digital rendering applications where high performance takes precedence over accuracy.  

16GB GDDR5 memory

Work at a whole new level of speed and responsiveness. With a 512-bit memory interface and 320 GB/s of memory bandwidth, users can edit 4K video, layer in multiple effects and color correct, or load massive assemblies and data sets and manipulate them in real time.

4K resolution

With six mini DisplayPort outputs and support for DisplayPort 1.2, the AMD FirePro W9100 can actually drive up to six 4K displays without DisplayPort 1.2 MST hubs.¹  The ability to run up to six 4K displays lets you visualize every detail of your project in new and exciting ways. That’s nearly 50 million pixels at your command.

OpenCL™ 2.0 support

Tap into the parallel computing power of modern GPUs and multicore CPUs to accelerate compute-intensive tasks in leading CAD/CAM/CAE and Media and Entertainment applications that support OpenCL. With 2.62 TFLOPs of peak double-precision floating-point performance, AMD FirePro W9100 is the first graphics card to break the 2.0 TFLOPS double-precision barrier². It’s expected to support OpenCL 2.0³, allowing developers to take advantage of new features that give GPUs more freedom to do the work they are designed to do.

DirectGMA and SDI support

Removes CPU bandwidth and latency bottlenecks and optimizes communication between GPUs within a system, as well as with third-party devices like SDI I/O cards. DirectGMA bypasses any need to traverse the host’s main memory, reducing  CPU utilization and helping to avoid redundant transfers over PCIe®, resulting in high-throughput, low-latency data transfers.

Framelock/Genlock

Ensures accurate and consistent video synchronization to external sources or multiple GPUs in different systems (requires ATI FirePro™ S400 synchronization module).
