ATI IGP supposed to be 1150, CCC says it's a 200M

I've been trying to figure out exactly what kind of display adapter I
have in my notebook. It's advertised as having an Xpress 1150 but when
I open up the CCC it's listed as a 200M. Now the clocks match the specs
for an 1150, 400 MHz, but I'm just wondering.
And I thought I read somewhere that the Radeon equivalent of the Xpress
1150 IGP is an X300. Is that accurate?

Thanks for any insights.

Both the Xpress 1150 and Xpress 200M are derivatives of the X300, but
integrated into the northbridge. The chipsets are branded differently
depending on the type of RAM employed in your notebook (DDR2 or DDR).
Performance-wise, both are dead-slow in 3D games.
I've only tried it with a couple of games, it plays the source engine
games fairly well, but playing F.E.A.R. is pretty pathetic, have to turn
everything down. I didn't buy this laptop to play games, it handles
them infinitely better than my old 800 MHz w/ Intel graphics laptop did,
so I can at least have a little fun with it if I feel like it.
Wish I could update the drivers though, even using the DriverHeaven modtool
