RV530 PRO
RV530 X1650
ATI's RV530 GPU uses the Ultra-Threaded SE architecture and is made using a 90 nm production process at TSMC. With a die size of 150 mm² and a transistor count of 157 million it is a small chip. RV530 supports DirectX 9.0c (Feature Level 9_3). Modern GPU compute technologies are not available. It features 12 pixel shaders and 5 vertex shaders, 4 texture mapping units and 4 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support).
