ATI's Radeon X550 chip doesn't appear on the company's website, but that hasn't stopped Taiwanese vendor Info-Tek announcing a pair of graphics cards based on the part.
Gecube Radeon X550 PCieA mention of the X550 has also been found lurking in ATI's latest Catalyst driver, 5.6, verifying that it's a genuine ATI product.
The driver reveals the X550 is essentially a higher-clocked X300. It's based on the same core as the older chip, the RV370, with four pixel pipelines and a pair of vertex engines. While the X300 is clocked at 325MHz, the X550 comes in at 400MHz.
That ups the fill rate from 1.3bn texels per second to 1.6bn.Hong Kong's HIS has also announced an X550-based board, the HIS X550 iFan, again with 128MB of on-board DDR SDRAM, clocked to 500MHz and operating across a 128-bit bus.
