Die Shot
NVIDIA's NV15 GPU uses the Celsius architecture and is made using a 180 nm production process at TSMC. With a die size of 88 mm² and a transistor count of 25 million it is a very small chip. NV15 supports DirectX 7.0. Modern GPU compute technologies are not available. It features 4 pixel shaders and 0 vertex shaders, 8 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).
