The Millennium G550 PCIe was a performance-segment graphics card by Matrox, launched on November 26th, 2001. Built on the 180 nm process, and based on the Condor graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 8.0. Since Millennium G550 PCIe does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. It features 2 pixel shaders and 1 vertex shader 2 texture mapping units, and 2 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). Matrox has paired 32 MB DDR memory with the Millennium G550 PCIe, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 125 MHz, memory is running at 166 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, its power draw is not exactly known. Display outputs include: 2x DVI. Millennium G550 PCIe is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 1.0 x1 interface. The card measures 112 mm in length, 97 mm in width, and features a single-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 199 US Dollars.
