iPhone uses Power VR MBX 3D graphics

Posted on Saturday, July 07 2007 @ 2:03 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Some details about the graphics inside the iPhone have appeared on Beyond3D:

Couple of users clearly found that Apple mentions AppleMBXDevice in the device and furthermore they believe that Apple is using ARM 11 chip called RM1176jzf-s that can do Optional Vector Floating Point coprocessor (ARM1176JZF-S) and Powerful acceleration for embedded 3D-graphics.

You can check the rest here but it should to me that these guys are on to something. Don’t be too excited about this 3D graphics as even Intel has MBX licence for more than two years and is been using it for its integrated products and SGX is the right 3D mobile chip.
