Hi there, I'm professional video game developer and I like some information about Open Pandora hardware :)

Open Pandora graphic card: Which Pixel Shader version?
Microprocessor: it's a single microprocessor, isn't it? and..., it is possible to know the equivalence in "Intel or AMD x86 language"? (more or less)

Thaks for the answers!
 
The graphics core is an Imgtec PowerVR SGX. According to the manufacturer's site, it "exceeds" shader model 3.

The main processor is an ARM Cortex A8. The clock speed is scalable up to 600MHz (officially). There is no accurate way to determine an x86 "equivalent", since the ARM architecture is so drastically different.

The OMAP3530 also has a very powerful DSP which can be used to accelerate certain processes. There's a thread discussing it's capabilities here.

Thanks to all.

The graphic card is amazing... and now I have more perspective of the Open Pandora hardware.
