Hi all, I am looking to buy a professional video card. Specifically a Radeon Pro WX 2100 or 3100 or 4100.
Anyone know how this card works with Powerdirector?
Thank you all.

Hi @Antonio do you have a use case in mind, will you use this machine for gaming, video production, or streaming or perhaps all of the above. My only comment is would be that AMD video cards are not necessarily ideal for Power Director. Historically the driver software has been not as good as the Nvidia drivers. However, it will probably work OK. Search the forums for posts about AMD video cards.

The WX 2100, 3100, 4100 are GCN 4th gen (TSMC 14 nm) based cards :

I had used an RX580 a couple of years ago, a GPU that is similar with the above, also based on GCN 4th gen (Samsung/GloFo 14LPP). It worked all right with Cyber Link PowerDirector 18. I moved to nvidia since then.

So I assume your cards will work just fine. Just a bit too expensive to be used in this case, with no added benefit.
My RX 580 had same hardware (36 CU, 8GB memory) as the WX7100, see the two links from above, side-by side.

Thank you all for the comprehensive answer.
I am thinking of changing my computer, but at the moment there is no GPU and CPU at a market price. So I decided to wait a little longer and see how the situation evolves.
Thanks again everyone.
