memory, up to 2.53 TFLOPS of peak double-precision and up to 10.8 GFLOPS-perwatt peak double-precision performance, the choice is clear. AMD FirePro S9150
GPUs deliver unparalleled compute performance and performance-per-watt.

Industry-leading GPU Compute Performance¹
As the first server GPU to feature ½ rate double precision4 and break the
2.0 TFLOPS double-precision barrier,5 the AMD FirePro S9150 brings up to 5.07
TFLOPS of peak single-precision and up to 2.53 TFLOPS of peak double-precision
compute performance.

Industry-leading Performance-per-Watt¹
A dual PCIe®slot form factor consuming 235W at maximum power, the AMD
FirePro S9150 delivers up to 21.6 GFLOPS-per-watt of single-precision floating
point performance, and up to 10.8 GFLOPS-per-watt of double-precision
performance — up to 77% more than the competition¹. With AMD FirePro S9150
server GPUs, supercomputers and computing clusters can achieve massive
compute performance and processor density within an eco-conscious
power budget.

Industry-leading Memory Configuration6
The AMD FirePro S9150 is the industry’s first server GPU with 16GB ultra-fast
GDDR5 onboard memory — 33% more than the competition.7 It also features a
512-bit memory interface for up to 320GB/s of memory bandwidth, helping to
improve overall workload speed and system responsiveness.

AMD FirePro™ S9150 High-Performance Server GPU
FEATURES

BENEFITS

AMD Graphics Core Next (GCN)
Architecture

The first GPU architecture designed with compute workloads in mind. Engineered for high utilization, high
throughput and multitasking.

5.07 TFLOPS of Peak Single-precision
Floating Point Performance

Helps speed up time required to complete single-precision operations used within Video Effects and
Rendering, Signal Processing, Transcoding and Digital Rendering applications where high performance takes
precedence over accuracy.

2.53 TFLOPS of Peak Double-Precision
Floating Point Performance

Helps speed up time required to complete double-precision operations used within Computational Fluid
Dynamics, Structural Mechanics, Reservoir Simulation and Aerodynamics applications, where numerical
precision is mission critical.

½ Rate Double Precision

Unlike competing server cards that are not optimized for double precision, AMD FirePro S9150 server GPUs
offer the most double-precision performance5, completing compute-intensive tasks faster than ever before.

Error Correcting Code (ECC) Memory
Support

Helps ensure the accuracy of computations by correcting any single or double bit error as a result of naturally
occurring background radiation. External support only.

Multi-GPU Support

Combine more than 10 AMD FirePro S9150 server GPUs in a single system and leverage the combined
processing power to tackle the most compute-intensive workloads.

16GB GDDR5 Memory

Helps to accelerate memory-intensive applications and process larger and more computationally complex
workloads with ease.

AMD PowerTune Technology²

An intelligent system that performs real-time analysis of applications that utilize a GPU. In the event that an
application is not making the most of the power available to the GPU,
AMD PowerTune can improve that application’s performance
by raising the GPU’s clock speed by up to 30% — automatically.

AMD STREAM Technology³

Powers the ecosystem that enables AMD FirePro™ S-Series server cards to be used for compute-intensive
workflows leveraging the massively parallel processing power of AMD GPUs, and accelerate many
applications beyond just graphics.

Ready to Support OpenCL™ 2.08

The AMD FirePro S9150 server GPU is expected to support OpenCL™ 2.0, allowing developers to take
advantage of new features that give GPUs more freedom to do the work they are designed to do.
