AMD has paired 2,048 MB GDDR5 memory with the FirePro W4100, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. It features 512 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. Unlike the fully unlocked Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition, which uses the same GPU but has all 640 shaders enabled, AMD has disabled some shading units on the FirePro W4100 to reach the product's target shader count. The Cape Verde graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 123 mm² and 1,500 million transistors.
Built on the 28 nm process, and based on the Cape Verde graphics processor, in its Cape Verde PRO GL variant, the card supports DirectX 12. The FirePro W4100 was a professional graphics card by AMD, launched on August 13th, 2014.
