IMG CXT with PowerVR Photon ray tracing architecture

Hydra was supposedly quad-core version of SGX543MP (so MP4?)
IIRC: Hydra was the MP shared logic of every SGX543/544/554MP, including MP1 (because some variants were not fully verified in SC configs to save time, even though Hydra added noticeable area). That included logic to allow distributing geometry across multiple parallel control streams in memory (one per core) as opposed to the Rogue-and-later approach of combining the processed geometry data of multiple geometry units into a single stream before writing it to memory.
