- FS21 stepping
- 90nm process
Details
The only known change from Rhea to create Elpis was swizzling (flipping) the PCIe balls on the chip in order to match the ballout of the original 90nm Y1 chip it replaces. Like Rhea, it uses the Xenos C2 GPU and Styx-90 eDRAM. These chips are known to be reliable.
