Description
The W5500X is a lower-cost alternative to the W5700X, which itself was only recently added as an option—just this April, in fact. A key difference between the two is memory bandwidth: the 8GB W5500X offers 224GB/s whereas the 16GB W5700X offers 448GB/s. Additionally, the W5500X has 24 compute units and 1,536 stream processors, while the W5700X offers much more bang at 40 CUs and 2,560 stream processors. It’s a big difference in performance and a modest difference in price.
