The Millenium P650 PCIe was a performance-segment graphics card by Matrox, launched on May 10th, 2003. Built on the 150 nm process, and based on the Parhelia-LX graphics processor, in its MP-A4L variant, the card supports DirectX 8.1. Since Millenium P650 PCIe does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The Parhelia-LX graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 130 mm² and 80 million transistors. It features 2 pixel shaders and 2 vertex shaders, 8 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 128 MB DDR memory with the Millenium P650 PCIe, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 275 MHz, memory is running at 275 MHz. Being a single-slot card, the Matrox Millenium P650 PCIe does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is not exactly known. Display outputs include: 2x DVI. Millenium P650 PCIe is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 1.0 x16 interface. Its price at launch was 234 US Dollars.
