So that mean that its likely still a smaller version of the 4950 like what was said in the early days after last years e3. They also said it had an independent tessellator then, so I am inclined to believe its true.

All AMD/ATI GPUs after R600 has a independent tessellaton unit (the R500 XENOS has too).
