    initial v1  
    33Early on I tied a lot of logic to the DCE version and chipset flags over the individual card generations since the chipset names + generations were a lot squishier.
    44
    5 Over time though the DCE version stopped being as relevant (being completely omitted on recent cards... anything over 13 is just made up at this point by us).  Radeon is a lot better than Intel in terms of tech debit in silicon design, but the ATI marketing team historically was pretty bad about injecting older generation cards in the middle of next-gen cards with a confusing naming.
