Zeus, also known as Y3, codename Gunga, is a 65nm GPU and is used on the Jasper motherboard. It is the successor to Rhea. 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.

X817793

The initial version of GPU Zeus using the C22 core. The ballout is compatible with the previous 80nm GPUs, however minor changes to the motherboard must be made.

  • Part Number: X817793

X810478

A revised version of GPU Zeus using the C23 core. The specifics of what changed between the two cores is not known. This chip is a drop-in replacement for the earlier version of Zeus.

  • Part Number: X810478
