'''Zeus''', also known as '''Y3''',  codename '''Gunga''', is a 65nm [[GPU]] used in the [[Xbox 360]]. It is the successor to [[Rhea (GPU)|Rhea]]. Initial variants used the '''C22''' design, later variants used the '''C23''' design. The 65nm process shrink required a partial redesign of the chip. The [[eDRAM]] was not shrunk and remains on a 80nm process. Zeus was the first version of Xenos where all variants are known to be reliable.

Zeus, codename Y3, is a 65nm GPU and is used on the Jasper motherboard. It is the successor to Rhea. The 65nm process shrink required a redesign of the chip. The eDRAM was unchanged. Zeus was the first version of the GPU where all variants are known to be reliable. The 65nm redesign was done by Microsoft themselves, not ATi.

  • 8 pixel rendering pipelines
  • Direct access to CPU L2 cache
  • C22 stepping (X817793)
  • C23 stepping (X810478)
  • 65nm process

eDRAM (Styx-90)

  • 10MB 256GB/s eDRAM
  • Contains logic for:
    • 4-sample anti-aliasing
