That low profile design also helps deploy the WX 4100 in more servers. Our particular card has a low profile bracket. The AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100 uses one type and that is Mini-DisplayPorts that greatly ease cabling for multi-monitor setups. Often we find a series of video outputs that mix up video outputs such as HDMI and DisplayPort making it a mess of different cables to build up a four display system. A common use for this card is in servers such as Intel Xeon E-2100 and Xeon E-2200 towers that also handle digital signage duties where they are installed. AMD Radeon PRO WX4100 BackĪt the output end of the AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100, we find the 4x Mini-DisplayPorts. It is a trade-off that AMD made with this card. A PCIe x8 format would give better deployment flexibility. The PCIe x16 format allows for better bracing, which allows major OEMs to ship GPUs more reliably. The AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100 is a PCIe x16 physical device but only a PCIe Gen3 x8 electrical device. One area we feel that AMD could have made another design choice on is the PCIe configuration.

One fan at the end of the card provides cooling, even at full loads, this fan does not make a great deal of noise. That means it is found in a number of servers and workstations because it is very easy to integrate. The AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100 measures in at 6.6” long and does not use additional power connectors. Even though it is late in the card’s product cycle, for markets where customers value trouble-free operation, there is still value in using mature GPUs.
#AMD RADEON PRO WX 4100 DRIVERS#
At the time of writing this review, appropriate drivers are not available for the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT and RX 5700 this card technically outperforms AMD’s newest flagship consumer parts in many of our compute benchmarks. Aside from the small form factor and low power use the AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100 includes 4x Mini-Display Ports for video outputs which can handle multiple 4K displays for applications like digital signage.Īlthough this is designed to be a low-cost and low-power GPU there is a fun fact about its performance. The AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100 is a low-profile GPU built on AMD’s Polaris architecture. We are going to show how it compares to modern higher-power GPUs. Our AMD Radeon PRO WX 4100 review is designed to do that. We normally focus on the higher-performance parts, but we also wanted to cover these entry-level designs for our readers to get a sense of what they are buying.
An area we get questions on regularly, but in low doses is about some of the lower-end GPUs found in workstations and low power servers.
