Pounds?

I've always assumed the extra chip is the cgfourteen proper, that the
motherboard contains nothing but the video electronics.  (I'm not sure
just what the division of labour is between the VSIMM and the
motherboard, but the MB can't have _too_ much of it or it'd be obvious.
For example, if it used a stock RAMDAC on the MB, there'd have to be
two of them, because it supports two cg14s.
