I have an Acer Aspire V3 551G-X419 laptop, and it is advertised to have a 7660G iGPU (on the 4600M APU), and a 7670M dGPU. Under various Linux distros however, lspci speficies:
Specifically, the Subsystem stating a 7650M and the name itself being just Thames (I believe the 7670M is based off Thames-Pro, but I could be wrong).
I've done a update-pciids and it still reports the same information. From what I recall, the chip on the motherboard itself doesn't reveal any kind of product number or anything visually (unless it's really tiny or something).
According to this unrelated bug report on Launchpad, an owner of a Acer Aspire 7750G laptop (with advertised 7670M) has their lspci reporting both a Thames XT and 7670M.
I've reported this to Acer on their forums, but so far they seem rather silent on it aside from the update-pciids suggestion: http://community.acer.com/t5/Noteboo...PU/td-p/171587
Could lspci be mistaken, or was I sold something not-as advertised?
