AMD STREAM technology powers the ecosystem that enables AMD FirePro™ graphics cards to be used for compute-intensive workflows leveraging the massively parallel processing power of AMD GPUs and accelerate many applications beyond just graphics.
| AMD STREAM TECHNOLOGY¹ | |
| ECC Memory |  |
| Fast Single- and Double-precision GPU Compute | |
| Bi-directional PCIe® data transfers | |
| P2P Multi-GPU support | |
| GPU-optimized OpenCL™ Libraries | |
AMD STREAM includes hardware and software optimizations designed for high-performance compute workflows and compute-intensive applications using OpenCL™, the open and cross-platform programming standard used for general-purpose computations. These features include Error Correcting Code (ECC) Memory support, fast floating point operations and direct memory access that enables low-latency data exchanges between multiple GPUs. When combined with GPU-optimized libraries and 3rd-party middleware, AMD STREAM unlocks the computational performance of the AMD FirePro graphics cards.
