Guess what this is....

[Squilliam]

So how many multiples of this chips performance is Molly!?

 

[Trawler]

Hammer?

 

[argor]

something obscure PowerVR SGX510 or SGX555.

It's a map!

 

[Erinyes]

^^You mean..





Anyway...I would guess SGX520 courtesy of Wikipedia

Can't be. No-x marks the spot!

 

[Rys]

It's not quite SGX, nor MBX...

 

[psolord]

I believe that's trinity!

Neo shouldn't be far behind!

 

[CarstenS]

META/MTX?

Thanks! I thought I was horribly geeky for thinking exactly the same thing!

could it really be true that PowerVR Series5 (the real one) was more than a few powerpoint slides?

Well we are on B3D after all so we're about as geeky as they come

Thanks! I put PVR5 out of my head because it was announced much earlier but apparently we were still waiting for it in '05! I'm voting this also.

It's clearly not an SoC and PowerVR didn't produce own masks after Series 5. So it should be Series 5.

Alright Rys, spill the beans!

 

[Nick]

SGX543MP4

 

[Rys]

There's been a few close guesses so I should give it away :smile: It's the mask for a chip called PMX590, which was Series 5-esque, but not unified like SGX Competition would have been NV40 and R360 (and it wouldn't have done that well, especially against NV40). Can't really say much more than that, but I'll try and get permission from the powers that be to talk about it a bit more, since it's a cloaked bit of PowerVR history.

Nice

BTW, any news on a comeback in the desktop/gaming market ?
