== Radeon Pro Duo (2016) ==
The first card to be released under the Radeon Pro name was the dual GPU Radeon Pro Duo in April 2016. The card features 2 liquid cooled R9 Nano cores & was marketed strongly for both the running and creation of virtual reality content with the slogan "For Gamers Who Create and Creators Who Game".{{cite web |title=Radeon Pro Duo |url=https://www.amd.com/en-us/products/graphics/desktop/radeon-pro-duo |website=AMD |language=en-US |access-date=August 19, 2016}}{{cite web |last=Ung |first=Gordon |date=March 14, 2016 |title=AMD's $150 dual-GPU Radeon Pro Duo graphics card is built for virtual reality |url=http://www.pcworld.com/article/3043993/hardware/amd-stakes-a-claim-on-virtual-reality-hardware-with-1500-dual-gpu-radeon-pro-duo.html |website=PCWorld |language=en-US |access-date=August 19, 2016}} The aesthetics and marketing of the Pro Duo follow that of the rest of the Fury products in the 300 series.
== Radeon Pro Duo (2017) ==
In April 2017 AMD announced a new version of the Radeon Pro Duo for release the following month.{{cite web |last=Cunningham |first=Andrew |date=April 25, 2017 |title=AMD puts two GPUs and 32GB of RAM on its latest Radeon Pro Duo graphics card |url=https://arstechnica.com/?p=1083409 |website=Ars Technica |language=en-US |access-date=April 25, 2017}} The newer version of the Pro Duo utilizes dual GPUs from the Polaris architecture, using the same GPUs as in the WX7100. While this results a smaller number of compute units and lower theoretical performance, it allows for the inclusion of 32 GB GDDR5 SDRAM and a lower board power.
== Radeon Pro SSG (Fiji) ==
Using AMD Radeon's GCN 3 architecture, the Radeon Pro SSG was unveiled in July 2016. SSG stands for Solid State Graphics, and the card will couple AMD's Fiji core with solid-state storage to increase the frame buffer for rendering. This expansion of quick access storage will, therefore, relieve the issue of latency that occurs when a GPU has to retrieve information from a mass storage device via the CPU when a card's limited VRAM is maxed out in heavy workloads.{{cite web |last=Evangelho |first=Jason |date=July 26, 2016 |title=AMD's Radeon Pro SSG Could Be A Game Changer For Developers And Content Creators |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2016/07/26/amds-radeon-pro-ssg-could-be-a-game-changer-for-developers-and-content-creators/#6064b3295f4b |website=Forbes |language=en-US |access-date=August 19, 2016}} Users will be able to add up to 1 TB of PCIe M.2 NAND flash memory to improve render and scrubbing times.{{cite web |last=Walton |first=Mark |date=July 26, 2016|title=AMD unveils Radeon Pro SSG graphics card with up to 1TB of M.2 flash memory|url=http://arstechnica.co.uk/gadgets/2016/07/amd-radeon-pro-ssg-graphics-card-specs-price-release-date/ |website=Ars Technica |language=en-US |access-date=August 19, 2016}} AMD demonstrated a 5.3 fold increase in performance on 8K video scrubbing.{{cite web|last=Chiappetta|first=Marco|title=AMD Unveils Radeon Solid State Storage Architecture And 1TB Radeon Pro SSG For Massive Pro Graphics Datasets|url=http://hothardware.com/news/amd-announces-radeon-solid-state-storage-architecture-and-radeon-pro-ssg|access-date=July 26, 2016|website=Hot Hardware|date=July 25, 2016}} This SSD storage space can be made available to the operating system or controlled entirely by the GPU.{{cite web |last=Alcorn |first=Paul |date=August 8, 2016 |title=Examining AMD Radeon Pro SSG: How NAND Changes The GPU Game |url=http://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-radeon-pro-ssg,32365.html |website=Tom's Hardware |language=en-US |access-date=August 8, 2016}} The Fiji-based Radeon Pro SSG card was available as a beta program.{{cite web |last=Smith |first=Ryan |date=July 25, 2016 |title=AMD Announces Radeon-pro SSG :Polaris with m.2 SSDs Onboard |url=http://www.anandtech.com/show/10518/amd-announces-radeon-pro-ssg-polaris-with-m2-ssds-onboard |website=AnandTech |language=en-US |access-date=July 26, 2016}}{{cite web |title=Radeon Pro SSG Technical Brief |url=https://www.amd.com/Documents/Radeon-Pro-SSG-Technical-Brief.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160824064834/https://www.amd.com/Documents/Radeon-Pro-SSG-Technical-Brief.pdf |archive-date=August 24, 2016 |url-status=dead |website=AMD |language=en-US |access-date=November 27, 2022}}

File:AMD RADEON PRO WX 3100 video card(1).jpg
Radeon Pro WX series are graphics cards designed specifically for professional applications used in engineering, design, content creation, and science. The first Radeon Pro cards with the WX prefix to be announced were the WX 7100, the WX 5100 and the WX 4100 in July 2016. These Polaris based cards are once again aimed at the traditional professional market and are set to replace the FirePro Wx100 series and FirePro Wx300 series. These cards, along with the Pro SSG, will use the new, non-toxic and energy efficient YInMn Blue, discovered by Mas Subramanian. This unique aesthetic for the Radeon Pro line will distinguish the professional products from the consumer Radeon series.{{cite web |author=AMD |date=August 15, 2016 |title=Radeon Pro WX Series and YInMn Blue |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMXS1A2uBeE |website=YouTube |language=en-US |access-date=August 22, 2016}}
The smallest card, the half-height WX 4100, is marketed for use in small form factor workstations.{{cite web |title=Radeon Pro Graphics |url=https://www.amd.com/en-us/products/graphics/workstation/radeon-pro |website=AMD |language=en-US |access-date=August 19, 2016}} Designed for real-time content engines and CAD and CAM manufacturing, the WX 5100 fits in between the WX 4100 and the WX 7100 in terms of performance, with the latter once again marketed with emphasis on the application of VR and other media creation, while claiming to be "The Most Affordable Workstation Solution".
In June 2017, AMD announced the addition of the lower power WX 2100 and WX 3100 cards to the Radeon Pro WX series.{{cite web |last=Killian |first=Zak |date=June 1, 2017 |title=AMD Radeon Pro WX 2100 and 3100 fit any workstation |url=https://techreport.com/news/32024/amd-radeon-pro-wx-2100-and-3100-fit-any-workstation |website=Tech Report |access-date=June 1, 2017}} Both cards are based on the Polaris GPU and are rated at 1.25 TFLOPS. The WX 2100 has 2 GB of GDDR5 SDRAM, while the WX 3100 has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory.
In September 2017, AMD launched the WX 9100 based on the Vega architecture. The card features 16 GB of ECC HBM2 memory and is rated at 12.29 TFLOPS.{{cite web |title=Radeon Pro WX 9100 |url=https://pro.radeon.com/en/product/wx-series/radeon-pro-wx-9100/ |website=AMD |language=en-US |access-date=February 8, 2018}} As the new flagship of the WX line, it greatly exceeds the performance of the older WX 7100 which is rated at 5.73 TFLOPS.{{cite web |title=Radeon Pro WX 7100 |url=https://pro.radeon.com/en/product/wx-series/radeon-pro-wx-7100/ |website=AMD |access-date=February 8, 2018}} The WX 9100 has ISV (Independent Software Vendor) certified drivers for professional applications including Siemens NX, PTC Creo, Dassault Systèmes CATIA and 3DExperience Platform, Dassault Systèmes SOLIDWORKS, and Autodesk® Revit®. The WX 9100 is particularly well-suited for mission critical workloads and complex scientific modeling because the ECC memory helps correct "single or double bit error as a result of naturally occurring background radiation."

API OpenGL 4.5 is supported and 4.6 is in development.
API Vulkan 1.0 is supported for all with GCN Architecture. Vulkan 1.1 (GCN 2nd Gen. and higher) will be supported with actual drivers in 2018.{{Cite web|url=https://www.khronos.org/adopters/conformant-products|title=The Khronos Group|date=June 4, 2019|website=The Khronos Group}}
As with other GPU architectures, the floating-point performance is dependent on the precision and the GCN generation:
- In 4th Gen GCN, FP64 is 1/16 of FP32. Newer gaming cards have better ratios, which should be reflected on newer derivative "Pro" versions:
- The gaming card Radeon R9 295X2 has it bumped up to 1/8 FP32.
- The gaming card Radeon VII has it bumped up to 1/4 FP32.
- The Radeon Pro Vega 20 has the ratio bumped up to 1/2 FP32.
- In 5th Gen GCN, FP16 is double of FP32. In 1st Gen to 4th it was equal to FP32.
For those requiring higher FP64 performance, a form of FP64 distinct from the IEEE double-precision can be emulated with the much faster FP32 operations. The cost is around a ~1/3 performance compared to FP32, much better than what the native support could provide.{{cite report |last=Thall |first=Andrew |date=March 2007 |title=Extended-Precision Floating-Point Numbers for GPU Computation |id=Tech.
