Pravin,

I wonder if when Forrest says that they used the MMX/FPU of the 6x86MX in the GXm he means the entire FPU of the 6x86MX.

I think the FPU component of MMX/FPU unit didn't change much from 5x86 -> MediaGX -> 6x86 -> 6x86MX. I guess the biggest change was integration of MMX with FPU in 6x86MX. This MMX/FPU unit in now going to be integraded in MediaGXm.

Perfomance of MMX/FPU should be better than 6x86MX, since the clock speeds are higher.

The next major revision of MMX/FPU will be in Cayenne core.
