AMD to Showcase the FirePro S400 and Eyefinity at I/ITSEC 2009

Sunnyvale, California-based Advanced Micro Devices has announced today that it will be demonstrating its latest 3D graphics display technology, during the I/ITSEC event in Orlanda, Florida. According to the graphics chip maker, attendees at the aforementioned event, which will be held between November 30 and December 3, will be able to set their eyes on the company's ATI FirePro S400 Synchronization Module. The card will be paired with up to 9 monitors to enable a smooth virtual canvas for rendering and synchronization video and 3D applications.

AMD's FirePro S400 Synchronization Module has been announced since late July, with the company continuing to expand its product portfolio for the professional market. The card supports up to 4 FirePro 3D workstation graphics cards, that can be used to enable the necessary performance for demanding applications that require synchronization to external sources (Genlock) or synchronization of 3D rendering of multiple GPUs in different systems (Framelock). Additional features of the FirePro S400 Synchronization Module include a serial ATA power connector, full hardware synchronization and a field upgradeable firmware.

In addition to the S400 Synchronization Module, the chip maker will be showcasing the features and capabilities of its recently-launched ATI Eyefinity technology, which essentially enables a customer to set-up a multi-display configuration. This technology allows for a new visual experience, when using the company's graphics cards, which can be paired with high-resolution displays simultaneously and independently.

The chip maker also announced that, at its booth at the I/ITSEC 2009 event, attendees will be able to experience the collaboration between AMD and Sogitec and Exxact. While the former specializes in providing simulation and training products, the latter offers computer hardware and peripherals to the workstation and server markets.

We will be keeping a close eye on any news coming from the event, in the eventuality that a video recording of the demonstration will be provided.
