ATI’s $1,800 2GB FirePro V8750 GPU introduced and reviewed

Need a quick way to blow 1,800 bones? Looking to single-handedly jump-start this so-called “economy” we keep hearing about? Look no further, friends, as ATI just did you a solid. Just four months after the outfit dished out its 1GB FirePro V7750, the company is now looking to strike it rich once more with the 2GB FirePro V8750. Obviously designed for the workstation crowd, this CAD destroying GPU is equipped with more GDDR5 memory than our own four-year old Quake III server, but as HotHardware points out, the clock speed remains exactly the same as the entirely more affordable V8700. When pushed, this newfangled card did manage to best every other rival on the test bench, but not by a wide margin. What you’re left with is a cutting-edge device that’s priced way out of consideration for most, and frankly, way outside the realm of sensibility. If you just can’t shake the urge to hear more, give that read link a tap for the full review.
