The ATI FirePro V7800 is the most high-end graphics card among them, which comes with 2GB of GDDR5 memory and is based on parallel architecture that is able to handle computationally or visually demanding applications with ease without any negative impact on performance.
The ATI FirePro V5800 is the mid-range, which comes with 1GB CDDR5 memory, supports up to three independent displays through the ATI Eyefinity technology. It has double the the performance of the previous generation, which also offers a balance of price and performance.

The ATI FirePro V3800 packs 512MB of DDR3 memory and a 30-bit display pipeline, which offers accurate color reproduction and exceptional visual quality. It also supports up to three displays with the support of the ATI Eyefinity technology, and it’s aimed at graphics professionals.
Last in the release is the ATI FirePro 2460 Multi-View, which is targeted at financial traders as mentioned, is a graphics card that is kept at low power consumption at about 13W on average. And it offers capability to support multiple displays, so financial traders can read tons of financial and stock figures clearly at once.
