If the numbers are correct, than the wx9100 is a full 64.(with a incredible small cuts that in game environment shoud translate in no more than 5 fps loss?)Not that I will game that much on it.

But if the specs are true and the 2 gpus have identical performance,than why the wx9100 is rated a 230w and the 64 is at 300w???
Maybe its a power plan in the drivers that can get changed,or the gpu has more severe cuts in raw performance?

I'm asking as I found one wx9100 at acceptable price and I can retire my old k4200.

It appears to be, indeed. The difference in wattage can be attributed to boost clccks and power profiles, as well as better silicon binning in the WX series.

My question would be if the workstation drivers would support standard gaming or not. Anyone know?

As far as i know there is no technical reason it would not work and almost all games do indeed work(only know this for certain about the quadros that i’ve used) , but some games have a bit that checks for quadro/FirePro etc. And Will just refuse to work because of this but there are work arounds

I have a few of the WX cards (polaris based), and you can toggle between workstation and regular consumer radeon game drivers. It works quite well.

I don’t imagine you’ll have a problem doing the same on the vega based WX cards.
