G550: fast enough?

[EvilDonnyboy]

I hope they bring out a non-crippled Marvel version of this card. If it performs as well as a Radeon AIW (at least in current games), than I'll be getting one for sure.

Hey CHHAS,
The G4X0s only have 2 pixels pipelines with ONE TMU each...

We're currently working on the impossible;

Oh, you're right! My bad.

So if we'll see 2 pipes with 2 TMU's fillrate will be double compared to a G400 running at the same clock

The whole condor thing probably is true. What Condor is is likely the chip's code name.

G400's codename is Toucan. Hence, they are just following the whole bird thing.
