ATI M12

M12 9550
M12 9550
ATI's M12 GPU uses the R300 architecture and is made using a 130 nm production process at TSMC. With a die size of 92 mm² and a transistor count of 76 million it is a very small chip. M12 supports DirectX 9.0. Modern GPU compute technologies are not available. It features 4 pixel shaders and 2 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).
