“All of the fetch and filtering capabilities are available to each thread type, making the samplers completely agnostic about what’s using them.” This line from Beyond3D article on R600 means that vertex, geometry and pixel shaders can access to texture samplers. So Vertex Texture Fetching is now available with Radeon 2k series :thumbup: What’s more, […]
Several weeks ago, I posted on Beyond3D a thread on my dynamic branching benchmark. I wondered why dynamic branching performances on Geforce 7 were worse than ones on Geforce 6 or 8. I believe I’ve got the answer: Forceware drivers. Here are some new results where ratio = Branching_ON / Branching_OFF : 7600GS – Fw […]
